I believe the correct answer is <span>hiding an important secret.
</span>Although sinister does mean evil, or intending harm, I believe that Poe didn't use that word his with that meaning. This is the excerpt of when he met the man on the staircase:
<em>"</em><span><em>His countenance, I thought, wore a mingled expression of low cunning and perplexity. He accosted me with </em></span><em>trepidation</em><span><em> and passed on."
</em>There is no evil feelings here - the narrator can only see that his host is afraid because of something, and he doesn't yet know why.<em>

Answer:
The answer is A
Explanation:
Sooo.... lets first eliminate
We can see that d says change its to it's
we know that is wrong because it's means it is while its means belonging to it.
It's is a contraction, meaning a shorter or "contracted" form of "it is" or "it has." (Example: It's going to rain.)
Its is a possessive pronoun meaning, "belonging to it," or a "quality of it" (Example: The carrier lost its license) or (Example: Its color is red.) So we can cross out D. For A, it is like the same thing. When “one's” is a contraction of “one is” it also requires an apostrophe: “no one's listening,” “this one's for you.” The only times “ones” has no apostrophe are when it is being used to mean “examples” or “people” as in “ripe ones” or “loved ones,” or in the informal arithmetical expression “the ones column. We can see that is correct.
