Answer:

It is a stormy night.  There is a chess game going on and this in itself can be suspenseful or apprehensive.  Read the portion that describes the place and home that they live in.  The author sets the scene and the atmosphere around the characters.  

Explanation:

This story was written in the early twentieth century and it reads like a Victorian story.  There is old fashioned language used and at that time the amount of money they are talking about - was a lot of money.  Just reading the portions to set the scene give you a ghost story like presence.  Remember too, that the use of a mystical object (supernatural sense) makes you get goosebumps.

Who is this Thomas á Becket fellow? Why does the narrator-persona begin his discussion of the various pilgrims by describing the
777dan777 [17]

Becket was born about 1119,[4] or in 1120 according to later tradition.[1] He was born in Cheapside, London, on 21 December, which was the feast day of St Thomas the Apostle. He was the son of Gilbert and Matilda Beket.[note 2] Gilbert's father was from Thierville in the lordship of Brionne in Normandy, and was either a small landowner or a petty knight.[1] Matilda was also of Norman descent,[2] and her family may have originated near Caen. Gilbert was perhaps related to Theobald of Bec, whose family also was from Thierville. Gilbert began his life as a merchant, perhaps as a textile merchant, but by the 1120s he was living in London and was a property owner, living on the rental income from his properties. He also served as the sheriff of the city at some point.[1] They were buried in Old St Paul's Cathedral.
