Answer: The correct answer would be A-Horror.

Explanation: For it is more likely evoke Horror out of the fact that there are all of these descriptive adjectives yet the reader still has no such idea of what the mysterious figure actually looks like but they know it is there and it is not far from them. The phrase:"more hideous than belongs to humanity") indicates that it is not human but rather something scarier.
