by Ethel Lina White ‧ RELEASE DATE: Aug. 19, 1942
The lady with a flair for terror -- and strange shenanigans, does a turn on The Turn of the Screw in this story of a young governess, and her two charges, morbidly bewitched by her predecessor. Two unreasoned killings, the Black Man bogey in the boarding house next door, and a miscellany of poltergeist phenomena make a very frightened, flurried governess of Elizabeth, and leads to the past for clarification. Thriller de luxe.
