“Of course I was under the spell, and the wonderful part is that, even at the time, I perfectly knew I was.”
― Henry James, The Turn of the Screw

“Why do people want to talk to each other? I mean, what are the things people always want to find out about other people?”
― Shirley Jackson, The Haunting of Hill House

“No Human eye can isolate the unhappy coincidence of line and place which suggests evil in the face of a house, and yet somehow a maniac juxtaposition, a badly turned angle, some chance meeting of roof and sky, turned Hill House into a place of despair, more frightening because the face of Hill House seemed awake, with a watchfulness from the blank windows and a touch of glee in the eyebrow of a cornice.”
― Shirley Jackson, The Haunting of Hill House

“So long as you write it away regularly nothing can really hurt you.”
― Shirley Jackson
