The passage uses third person limited point of view. The narrator describes the actions and thoughts of the characters (Brad and Patty) but does not provide the thoughts of all characters or any personal perspective of the narrator. The focus is primarily on what Brad and Patty are experiencing.
Which point of view does the narrator use in the passage?
As you reach the carnival entrance, you hear music coming from inside. Not the usual corny organ stuff they always play. But some really strange music. It sounds familiar and totally new at the same time.
Brad stretches his neck to try to peer over the fence. But no luck. The fence is way too high.
Patty jiggles the padlock on the gate. It's sealed shut.
