Turn of the Screw is such a wonderful ghost story. It's real creepiness lies in it's ambiguity--you never really know whether the ghosts are real or not, so you're left wondering whether the horror is in the insanity of the governess or the evil of the spirits. Good, quick read. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/641093?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
