I believe the correct answer is <span>hiding an important secret.
</span>Although sinister does mean evil, or intending harm, I believe that Poe didn't use that word his with that meaning. This is the excerpt of when he met the man on the staircase:
<em>"</em><span><em>His countenance, I thought, wore a mingled expression of low cunning and perplexity. He accosted me with </em></span><em>trepidation</em><span><em> and passed on."
</em>There is no evil feelings here - the narrator can only see that his host is afraid because of something, and he doesn't yet know why.<em>
</em></span>
