How can I retrace today the strange steps of my obsession... The Turn of the Screw is a gothic ghost story, telling the tale of an unnamed governess who lives with her two charges in an isolated country house.

This uneasy and sinister novella is a genius work of horror fiction, surrounding the terrors that emerge from everyday life.
