The setting of a dark, stormy night in a haunted house is atmospheric and helps build an eerie mood. Descriptions like "the wind howled like a banshee's cry" and the house looking "haunted" and in "disrepair" are effective at setting the creepy scene. The plot builds suspense well through creepy details and the cries heard in the house. The discovery of the ghostly Alice in the corner adds a twist.
