Henry James · 1898 · Gothic horror
A governess arrives at a remote country house to care for two beautiful children and begins to see the ghosts of the previous governess and her lover. Whether the ghosts are real or whether the governess is losing her mind is a question James deliberately never settles. The most perfectly calibrated ghost story in English literature.
