Question

Justify the title shady plot??

Answer 1

The name of the story is ‘A Shady Plot’. The word ‘shady’ here means ‘quiet, dark, or concealed; hidden’. The word ‘plot’ here means ‘storyline- the plan, scheme, or main story of a literary or dramatic work, as a play, novel, or short story’. The story deals about author’s unintentional involvement with the ghost ‘Helen’, who was the source behind all the plots of his spooky stories. Since the plot of the story is about author’s secret involvement with the ghost, Helen, which his wife comes to know about a little at the end. The entire plot of the story has a ghostly (shady) element. So the title ’A Shady (ghostly) Plot (story) is aptly justified.
