The Turn of the Screw
Henry James's father was interested in spiritualism, while his brother explored the occult sciences – an interest in the supernatural was a family trait. However, the novella "The Turn of the Screw" was written at the request of the editor...
of Collier’s Weekly after the failure of his play's performance.
The owner of a mysterious estate hires a young governess to look after his nephew and niece, insisting that he should not be disturbed under any circumstances. The enchanted girl agrees to all the conditions and confidently takes on the job. But her charges behave strangely, and sinister figures of the former governess and the valet flicker in the darkness. What is it: ghosts or a figment of her imagination?
