Answer 1

The statement that best describes how the sentence foreshadows the events to come is:

C It hints that some kind of evil will visit the White family.

The reference to "something horrible" and "watching you" implies a looming threat or malevolent force, suggesting that the White family will face danger or misfortune as a result of their actions.
