The Turn of the Screw
(eBook)
Description
"The Turn of the Screw" by Henry James is a chilling masterpiece of psychological horror and suspense. Set in a remote English country estate, the story follows a young governess who becomes responsible for two orphaned children. However, her joy soon turns to dread as she begins to suspect that the house is haunted by malevolent spirits. As she grapples with increasingly eerie occurrences and the sinister influence of the children's former caretakers, the governess's sanity is called into question. James expertly crafts a narrative filled with ambiguity and tension, leaving readers questioning what is real and what is imagined. "The Turn of the Screw" is a haunting exploration of fear, repression, and the blurred lines between the supernatural and the human psyche.
