I think it sounded more like fright than excitement! In fact, if it bad not been for the sign on the door, I should have been sure we had come to the wrong house. As soon as I clapped eyes on the little fellow bobbing and puffing on the mat, I had my doubt. He looks more like a grocer-than a burglar!

This paragraph is a part of < the lord of the ring>. What does the "bad" mean in the second sentence? I think “bad” is not a verb. So what's the attribute here?
