Element 3 - A ghostly legend and an unexplainable occurrence
Açıklamak
The passage from "The Devil and Tom Walker" describes a scene where Tom is in a secluded area, listening to a tree-toad, and uncovering a skull. This setting and the presence of a skull suggest an eerie and mysterious atmosphere, which aligns with the Gothic Fiction element of a ghostly legend or an unexplainable occurrence. There is no mention of damsels in distress or large, drafty old houses in this passage.
