Answer 1

The theme of the story, 'The Shady Plot' is the unique blending of intelligent humour with horror to create a story for the entertainment of the readers. The supernatural elements in the story don’t scare the readers; they rather augment the humour. In the cover of the horror element, he lampoons the behavioral flaws of womankind, especially his wife. He makes clever allusions to her extravagance, suspicious and jealous nature.  The story appears to be more humorous than a horror one. His description about his description about his own ‘idiotic grin’ is quite funny. The plot and the various scenes are quite comical. The author succeeds in entertaining the readers.
