"[T]here is a secret about one of my rooms on which I feel disposed to try an experiment. So, gentlemen, none of you shall know

who has the haunted chamber, until circumstances reveal it. I will not even know it myself, but will leave it to chance and the allotment of the housekeeper. At the same time, if it will be any satisfaction to you, I will observe, for the honor of my paternal mansion, that there’s scarcely a chamber in it but is well worthy of being haunted."

Answer:

The setting details are omitted from the plot of the story.

Explanation:

Washington Irving's "The Mysterious Picture" is part of his "Tales of a Traveler" in which the protagonist details his encounters while traveling. The particular short story is about him and the mysterious picture that hangs in his room for the night.

This gothic story delves into suspense where the narrator ends up having to spend the night in the room with the mysterious picture. And from the particular passage, the owner of the house reveals the way to ensure who is the most heroic gentleman among his guests. And while revealing his plan for the night, the author fails or did not reveal the setting details of the mansion or chambers of the scene where the men are to stay for the night.

Thus, Irving builds up suspense by omitting the setting details of the story.

You had a bad meal at a restaurant. Service was slow and the food was terrible.
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Hello,

Today I visited your restaurant and orderded the signature truffle pasta, wagyu beef steak, and a bottle of 23 year old wine along with your famous color changing ice cream. Since I spent over $300, I was expecting excellent service and a satisfied stomach. But the steak and pasta arrived extremely late and the food was already cold by then. The chees had already soldified and the steak was still a little cold in the inside. I called the waiter named Jean and he looked at me as if I was a dirty peice of gum on his shoe. I wanted him to send the food back to the chef and warm the food up again politly, but he would give me dirty looks and just walked away. I was appalled and disgusted. After 30 minutes later, I got another waiter to send the food back but after it was warmed up, it was even worse.  The pasta was overcooked and the sauce was way to salty. The beef had a stench as if it wasn't cleaned well in the beginning. I request that you fire Jean, the rude waiter. I also request you to return the money I paid.

Thanks,

A extremely dissapointed customer
