Twice-Told Tales

Three horror stories inspired by the writings of Nathaniel Hawthorne. In the opening tale, Dr. Heidegger's Experiment, Heidegger attempts to restore the youth of three elderly friends. In Rappaccini's Daughter, a demented father inoculates his daughter with poison so she may never leave her garden of poisonous plants. The final tale, The House of the Seven Gables, centers on the Pyncheon family as a hundred year old curse afflicts them during an inheritance dispute, just as a stranger arrives.
