2. we-sub, felt-verb, full-compliment, after we had eaten-prep phrase, Thanksgiving-adj
3. setting-sub, is-verb, castle-compliment, of the story-prep phrase, , old, deserted-adj

2, After we had eaten is a clause, not a phrase. Phrases do not contain subjects and verbs.
4, To choose is an infinitive, not a prep phrase.
So #2 doesn't have a prep phrase.
And #4 doesn't have a prep phrase
Right. Neither has a prepositional phrase.
