What mood is created in this excerpt from dracula by bram stoker? all at once the wolves began to howl as though the moonlight had had some peculiar effect on them. the horses jumped about and reared, and looked round with eyes that rolled in a way painful to see; but the living ring of terror encompassed them on every side; and they had perforce to remain within it. i called to the coachman to come, for it seemed to me that our only chance was to try to break out through the ring and to aid his approach. i shouted and beat the side of the calèche, hoping by the noise to scare the wolves from that side, so as to give him a chance of reaching the trap. how he came there, i know not, but i heard his voice raised in a tone of imperious command, and looking towards the sound, saw him stand in the roadway. as he swept his long arms, as though brushing aside some impalpable obstacle, the wolves fell back and back further still. just then a heavy cloud passed across the face of the moon, so that we were again in darkness. when i could see again the driver was climbing into the calèche, and the wolves had disappeared. this was all so strange and uncanny that a dreadful fear came upon me, and i was afraid to speak or move. the time seemed interminable as we swept on our way, now in almost complete darkness, for the rolling clouds obscured the moon. we kept on ascending, with occasional periods of quick descent, but in the main always ascending. suddenly, i became conscious of the fact that the driver was in the act of pulling up the horses in the courtyard of a vast ruined castle, from whose tall black windows came no ray of light, and whose broken battlements showed a jagged line against the sky. suspense frustration optimism terror

1. find at least 9 adjectives from this opening passage used to describe the setting of the story- "to build a fire" setting: day had broken cold and gray, exceedingly cold and gray, when the man turned aside from the main yukon trail and climbed the high earth-bank, where a dim and little-travelled trail led eastward through the fat spruce timberland. it was a steep bank, and he paused for breath at the top, excusing the act to himself by looking at his watch. it was nine o'clock. there was no sun nor hint of sun, through there was not a cloud in the sky. it was a clear day, and yet there seemed an intangible pall over the face of things, subtle gloom that made the day dark, and that was due to the absence of sun. this fact did not worry the man. he was used to the lack of sun. it had been days since he had seen the sun, and he knew that a few more days must pass before that cheerful orb, due south, would just peep above the sky-line and dip immediately from view.
