Usiku mmoja wa mkesha wa Krismasi, katika nyumba ya zamani, Douglas anasoma kwa sauti mswada ulioandikwa na mwanamke aliyewahi kuwa mwalimu wa nyumbani wa dada yake. Katika mswada huo, msichana kijana, binti mdogo kabisa wa kasisi maskini wa mashambani, anapewa kazi na bwana mmoja asiyetaka kusumbuliwa: anapaswa kuwalea wapwa wa bwana huyo, Miles na Flora, ambao ni yatima, katika nyumba ya mashambani iitwayo Bly, bila kumwandikia barua yoyote kuhusu jambo lolote lile.

Punde si punde, anamwona mwanamume asiyemjua amesimama juu kabisa ya mnara, kisha mwanamke aliyevaa nguo nyeusi upande wa pili wa ziwa. Ana hakika kwamba watoto wale wawili nao wanawaona na wanalificha jambo hilo. Henry James anamwachia msomaji mwenyewe kupima kile kilichotokea hasa huko Bly.

Hadithi hii imetafsiriwa kutoka Kiingereza, lugha asili ya Henry James. Matini ya asili ni The Turn of the Screw, katika toleo la Project Gutenberg namba 209. Sehemu ya mwanzo, ambapo kundi la wageni wamekusanyika kando ya moto katika nyumba ya zamani usiku wa mkesha wa Krismasi, na sura ishirini na nne zenye namba za Kirumi I hadi XXIV zinafuata mpangilio wa asili.
