Answer: The house was unusually dark for early evening.

Explanation: You see, The house will be unusually dark for early evening is future tense and they're not describing the future.  The house has been unusually dark for early evening. That's present tense which the story isn't in (example: . My brother and I<u> </u><u>pulled</u> into the driveway. That's past tense thus meaning the story is past tense.) The house was being unusually dark for early evening. This is future tense like the story.

I hope this helps!!

This is because articles in encyclopedias generally have more than one author and the information in them has been combined from many resources. This is why it is best to just write the title of the encyclopedia instead of the name of the author.</span>
