Read the excerpt from Poe’s "The Masque of the Red Death." But in the western or black chamber the effect of the fire-light that
streamed upon the dark hangings through the blood-tinted panes, was ghastly in the extreme, and produced so wild a look upon the countenances of those who entered, that there were few of the company bold enough to set foot within its precincts at all. Which words from the excerpt most convey the mood?
A. black chamber
B. fire-light
C.blood-tinted
D.bold enough
Blood-tinted is the best answer because it not only conveys a mood of death but also one of horror. It continues the red images throughout the story that are begun with the title "The Masque of the Red Death". While other words like "fire-light" and "black chamber" could show the deathly mood, they do not accurately convey the horror in the chamber.
