The Turn of the Screw By: Henry James
If you’re a fan of Stranger Things and Finn Wolfhard’s haunting performances, you’ll love the chilling atmosphere that inspired his modern gothic film The Turning. Before Hollywood turned it into a psychological ghost story for a new generation, Henry James wrote The Turn of the Screw — a masterpiece of suspense, mystery, and slow-burning terror that still influences horror movies today.
When a young governess takes a job caring for two orphaned children in a remote English mansion, she soon begins to suspect that the estate is haunted — not just by ghosts, but by dark secrets from the past. As she struggles to protect the children from unseen forces, the line between the supernatural and her own unraveling mind becomes terrifyingly blurred.
This audiobook delivers the same eerie, cinematic tension that Stranger Things fans crave — isolated settings, creeping dread, and a sense that something otherworldly is always watching. Every whispered word and flicker of doubt pulls you deeper into the psychological maze that has fascinated readers and filmmakers for over a century.
If you love haunted mansions, ghostly mysteries, and the kind of suspense that made Finn Wolfhard a Hollywood favorite, this is your next listen. Press play… and step inside the house where nothing is as it seems.
