Examples of figurative language in "The Mousetrap" include similes, metaphors, and personification. For example, when the characters say "the house creaks like an old ship," it is a simile comparing the sound of the creaking to that of a ship. Another example is when a character describes the snow as "a white blanket covering the earth," using a metaphor to create a vivid image of the snow covering everything like a blanket. Personification can be seen when the wind is described as "whispering secrets" as if it has human-like qualities.
