Emily is a mystery because she lives in such a bizarre way and stays so aloof from everyone else in the town. Because of this, no one has any idea as to what is going on in her house, let alone in her head.
As far as we can tell, the only person Emily ever speaks too willingly is her servant, Tobe. When the town fathers come to talk to her about her taxes, she makes it clear she has no desire to really talk to them and they are soon sent on their way.
In addition to the fact that she doesn't talk to anyone, there is the fact of the bad smell that came from her house. No one has any idea as to why that happened or what was causing it.
So when you add weird things like the smell to the fact that she won't talk to anyone, Miss Emily becomes quite a mystery.
