The Turn of the Screw

by Henry James

4/5

A young governess arrives at a remote English estate to care for two seemingly angelic children, only to become convinced that the grounds are haunted by the ghosts of former servants. James's masterfully ambiguous novella leaves readers debating whether the ghosts are real or products of an unstable mind.
