Correct answer is "The dark, quiet autumn day creates a mood of menace and gloom."

The story is designated to create a gothic mood. Poe utilizes words like "black, vacant, decayed, gray, gothic and sluggish" to construct the climate.

The house of Usher express depressed, creepy, dark and gloomy, such as a haunted house.
