Answer:
B. "gasped for breath"
Explanation:
The fifth paragraph of the text shows a moment of intense terror and fear that the narrator experienced after visualizing a ghostly shadow approaching him. The fright makes the narrator have a kind of panic attack, where, desperately, he runs through the streets, like a madman, trying to escape this horror he feels. The narrator shows that he is experiencing a very strong anxiety attack, which is evidenced by the words "gasped for breath" which is one of the main symptoms of this type of situation.
