Question

What does Dill tell Jem and Scout about Hot Steams?

Answer 1

Answer:

Dill wants to know what a "hot steam" is and Jem is more than happy to tell him. "A hot steam's somebody who can't get to heaven, just wallows around on lonesome roads an' if you walk through him, when you die you'll be one too, an' you'll go around at night suckin' people's breath."
