The answer is: b. It adds to the suspense

Onomatopoeia refers to the use of words that sound like what they mean. It makes the account more vivid and entertaining, appealing directly to the senses of the reader.

In "The Bells," Edgar Allan Poe portrays bells that clang, clash, roar, twang, jangle, wrangle, sink and swell. Therefore, such intense characterization of their ringing arouse feelings of horror, danger and anger in a thrilling and frightening passage.
