The Turn of the Screw

I had to read this story for English class my junior year of high school. Otherwise, I am sure that I would not have read it on my own, or if I had started it, I would not have finished. This story is truly terrifying, well-written horror. The reason for my mediocre rating is that I don't enjoy being completely scared and creeped out by the fiction I read, so it is strictly a matter of personal preference. If horror is your thing, you absolutely should read this book. I think this story is scarier than anything written by Poe.
