Follow along with me as I read this classic ghost story - I'm sure we'll have more than a few shared scares! Tonight, we begin Henry James' chilling "The Turn of the Screw" with the Introduction, Chapter 1 and Chapter 2. We get the whole creepy origin and set-up to infamous Bly, and more than a few hints to it's mystery are already peppered in! We get a frightful amount of set up - Douglass has gathered a curious group around the fire in an old house to tell the story of Bly out of a red gilt manuscript. We (through the beautiful handwriting of the governess) meet Mrs. Grouse and little Flora, and get a grand little tour of the big house… which feels like a ship adrift at sea it seems. We also learn that young Miles has been kicked out of school, and that the previous governess has died. Mysteriously. And that’s about as much as Mrs. Grouse will let on! This tale, "The Turn of the Screw" by Henry James is read in a soft voice and set to some light and eerie background music. I do hope you enjoy the this evening's start into an old ghost story!
