  1. What is unique about the setting of They Came from Below and how has it enhanced or taken away from the story so far?

  2. The story takes place in Cape Cod in present day. Without the story taking place by a body of water the story wouldnt be good. Most of the really good things in They Came From Below happened near the water or because of the water or something in the water

  3. the unique part of the setting is that it is by the water most of the time but it is in presant time!!!!!!
    if it was taken away from the story it really would not make sense or be good!
