</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:

Dewey Dell is the second-to-youngest Bundren child, and the only daughter of Anse<span>and </span>Addie<span>. Dewey Dell does not narrate many sections throughout the novel, though she is arguably one of the most tragic characters in the book: she is impregnated by the farmhand </span>Lafe<span>, who then leaves her with nothing more than ten dollars for an abortion. Later, she is cheated by a drug store clerk into having sex with him and then is given what she is sure (correctly) is fake medicine. Just pages later, Anse takes her abortion money to buy his teeth, leaving Dewy Dell with next to nothing at the end of the novel.</span>
