A Great Good Place Full of Ghosts: The Turn of the Screw

  • Summary

  • If you thought taking care of your own kids was hard, be glad you're not some nameless governess charged with caring for two little angels on an isolated estate, complete with ghosts, possessions and very little food. Or, be grateful you're the governess in the TV miniseries version, where there are still angelic kids, a big, spooky house filled with ghosts, and a ton of food! We'll discuss memory, grief, trauma, gin and tonic, teatime, the care and feeding of turtles, the nature of ghosts and sex, bangers and mash, the difference between shepherd's pie and cottage pie, and analyze the connection between food and horror in Henry James' horror classic The Turn of the Screw, the 1961 film version The Innocents, and the 2020 Netflix series The Haunting of Bly Manor. Grab your pet turtle, a pot of tea, or a bottle of red wine from the cellars of Bly Manor and join us!
