In Henry James’s chilling masterpiece, a young governess arrives at a remote country estate to care for two orphaned children, Miles and Flora. What begins as a simple post soon darkens, as she senses a sinister presence haunting the grounds and watching the children with malevolent intent. Yet uncertainty coils through every shadow—are the apparitions real, or born of the governess’s own troubled mind? The Turn of the Screw endures as a landmark of gothic fiction, its atmosphere of dread and ambiguity inspiring generations of ghost stories to follow.
