The correct answer is on the bust of Pallas.

In Poe's famous poem, "The Raven," the protagonist is alone in his room when he hears a knock. It turns out to be a bird, a raven who was knocking on the window to be let it. Once he is, he perches itself on the bust of Pallas, which is quite symbolic in itself. Pallas is goddess of wisdom, according to Greek mythology, so when the raven sat on her sculpture, it started saying 'wise things' to the protagonist.

The protagonist is wondering whether he will ever see his loved one again and whether he will manage to get over her (given that she died), but the raven's only word is <em>Nevermore. </em>

Describe story about a ghost become a human.​
SashulF [63]

Answer:

A ghost story may be any piece of fiction, or drama, that includes a ghost, or simply takes as a premise the possibility of ghosts or characters' belief in them.[1][2] The "ghost" may appear of its own accord or be summoned by magic. Linked to the ghost is the idea of "hauntings", where a supernatural entity is tied to a place, object or person.[1] Ghost stories are commonly examples of ghostlore.

Illustration by James McBryde for M. R. James's story "Oh, Whistle, And I'll Come To You, My Lad".

Colloquially, the term "ghost story" can refer to any kind of scary story. In a narrower sense, the ghost story has been developed as a short story format, within genre fiction. It is a form of supernatural fiction and specifically of weird fiction, and is often a horror story.

While ghost stories are often explicitly meant to be scary, they have been written to serve all sorts of purposes, from comedy to morality tales. Ghosts often appear in the narrative as sentinels or prophets of things to come. Belief in ghosts is found in all cultures around the world, and thus ghost stories may be passed down orally or in written form.[1]
