The Turn of the Screw and Other Stories

A chilling tale of terror and the supernatural. A young, inexperienced governess is charged with the care of Miles and Flora, two small children abandoned by their uncle at his grand country house. But one night she sees a man’s face at the window. It is Peter Quint, the master’s dissolute valet, and he has come for little Miles. But Peter Quint is dead… Has the governess seen a ghost? Is she hallucinating? Who else sees what she sees? Are these innocent children victims of evil from beyond the grave, or of the governess’s ‘infernal imagination’, which torments but also enthralls her? This gripping evocation of menace and evil is one of the scariest stories ever told.
