Answer 1

In "The Open Window" by H.H. Munro (Saki), the setting of the room momentarily shifts when the aunt, Mrs. Sappleton, enters because it seems to become less creepy and more dynamic. This change is noticeable as her lively personality contrasts with the eerie atmosphere that existed before her arrival. Therefore, the correct answer is:

B. it seems to become less creepy and more dynamic.
