"Hurry! Hurry!" One of her historical rather than supernatural tales--political in nature. Tho' most of it seemed to lead to a predictable ending there was a slight twist at the end that partially redeemed it. Pas mal.

"Sheep's Head and Babylon" Atmospheric tale of an olde Scottish theologian's demise. Again a tad predictable but evocative.

"Dark Ann" A romantic ghost-ish tale. I love its point: dreams are both better and more real than puny reality and all its dumb conformity.

"The Scoured Silk" Wonderful horror gem. Bowen has a great gift for framing a tale--she gives just the right information in just the right order to build suspense. She;'s a literary Hitchcock.

Title novelette: it owes a certain something to Jane Eyre and is only really serviceably well written, but it had a couple of nice surprises at the end. I do like a tale with no discernible good guys tho, wholly realistic. Heh heh.
