The Turn of the Screw by Henry James The House on the Borderland by William Hope Hodgson The House of the Seven Gables by Nathaniel Hawthorne The Fall of the House of Usher by Edgar Allan Poe<br/>“No, no—there are depths, depths! The more I go over it, the more I see in it, and the more I see in it, the more I fear. I don’t know what I don’t see—what I don’t fear!”<br/>― Henry James, The Turn of the Screw<br/>“Six days, and I have eaten nothing. It is night. I am sitting in my chair. I wonder have any ever felt the horror of life that I have come to know? I am swathed in terror. I feel ever the burning of this dread growth. It has covered all my right arm and side, and is beginning to creep up my neck. To-morrow, it will eat into my face. I shall become a terrible mass of living corruption. There is no escape. Yet, a thought has come to me, born of a sight of the gun-rack, on the other side of the room. I have looked again—with the strangest of feelings. The thought grows upon me. God, Thou knowest, Thou must know, that death is better, aye, better a thousand times than This. This! Jesus, forgive me, but I cannot live, cannot, cannot! I dare not! I am beyond all help—there is nothing else left. It will, at least, spare me that final horror… … .<br/>"I think I must have been dozing. I am very weak, and oh! so miserable, so miserable and tired—tired. The rustle of the paper, tries my brain...”<br/>― William Hope Hodgson, The House on the Borderland<br/>“Shall we never never get rid of this Past? ... It lies upon the Present like a giant's dead body.”<br/>― Nathaniel Hawthorne, The House of the Seven Gables<br/><br/>“Not hear it? --yes, I hear it, and have heard it. Long --long --long --many minutes, many hours, many days, have I heard it --yet I dared not --oh, pity me, miserable wretch that I am! --I dared not --I dared not speak! We have put her living in the tomb!”<br/>― Edgar Alan Poe, The Fall of the House of Usher
