Owl Creek Bridge depicts the atmosphere of the story, as well as the knowledge of what is taking place. The story is being described on railroad tracks, in Northern Alabama.

The mob continued to yell and raise their signs as four federal marshals escorted a child. A six year old African American girl. The girl walked through the mob like they weren’t even there.
