“The Turn of the Screw” - Critique
“I don’t know what I don’t see, what I don’t fear!” (1898)
Inspiring creators of ghostly tales & films,
Creeps the skin, but makes one want to escape to
an ominous mansion filled with ghostly intruders,
exquisite architecture and floating moors.
“The Others” breathlessly paid tribute,
which was both atmospheric and sublime,
much like this gift of a novella by Henry James.
