Harper Lee creates tension from the beginning of chapter 28 of To Kill a Mockingbird with the setting of a pitch black night, talk of ghosts, and Cecil Jacobs jumping out to scare Jem and Scout. The tension continues as they walk home alone after the pageant: it continues to be very dark, they hear ominous noises, and Jem finally shouts to Scout to run. The element of an unknown threat builds up the suspense, tension, and fear.
