Ответ

1. In the phrase “I was dead scared”, dead is an adverb. It intensifies the adjective scared and makes the phrase stronger.

Other examples of this kind in the text:

• dead tired
• dead silent
• dead sure

2. The adjectives from the story include vague, musty, little, white, loudly (in the phrase), and dead (as an intensifier).

They create a vivid, tense atmosphere and help the reader feel the fear and suspense.
