Answer:

The author is comparing a branch used to scare a stubborn mule with a good scary story. The author thinks that making people scared will make them want to listen more because of the fear they have of something happening. The author thinks that as he tells a story the more fear the audience has the more interested they are in the story, wanting to know what will happen next
