• THE HOUSE OF THE SEVEN GABLES (CHAP 9) CLIFFORD AND PHOEBE

  In Chapter 9, "Clifford and Phœbe," of Nathaniel Hawthorne's The House of the Seven Gables, we witness the tragic battle waged by love against the inherited gloom of the Pyncheon house. Hepzibah, though endowed with a high and noble "heroism" by years of sorrow, finds her fierce, devoted affection utterly incapable of saving her brother, Clifford.  Yet, a powerful, contrasting influence arrives in the form of Phœbe, a creature of "thoroughly wholesome" simplicity.  Tune in to discover whether this delicate, vibrant spirit can be the catalyst to lead the tormented, outcast Clifford back into the "whole sympathetic chain of human nature".

• THE HOUSE OF THE SEVEN GABLES (CHAP 8) THE PYNCHEON OF TO-DAY

  We invite you back into the decaying world of The House of the Seven Gables by Nathaniel Hawthorne for our newest installment, Chapter 8, "The Pyncheon of to-day."  The episode focuses on the immediate, unsettling crisis caused by the arrival of the wealthy and ostensibly benevolent Judge Pyncheon.  A chilling transformation forces young Phœbe to confront the terrifying suspicion: that the ruthless qualities, the moral diseases, and the inveteracy of purpose that defined the ancient ancestor, Colonel Pyncheon, have indeed been handed down through the generations.  Tune in to discover whether Hepzibah can defend the house against the man who has been the horror of her life.

• THE HOUSE OF THE SEVEN GABLES (CHAP7 )THE GUEST

  Today we present Chapter 7, "The Guest," of Nathaniel Hawthorne's The House of the Seven Gables.  The ancient Pyncheon House is gripped by frantic, trembling preparation as Hepzibah undertakes an heroic test of sentiment.  Racking her nerves to create a beautiful meal from a musty, antique cookery book for an unnamed arrival.  Hepzibah's emotional state is terrifyingly volatile.  As she meticulously positions the table to catch both shadow and sun for her visitor, the suspense is drawn out by the guest's reluctant, pausing footstep, which causes Phœbe to feel as if a ghost were coming into the room.  This chapter offers deep insight into the nature of the newcomer; Hawthorne notes that an individual of this temper can be pricked more acutely through his sense of the beautiful and harmonious than through his heart, suggesting that this extreme aesthetic need might have even eaten out or filed away his affections had his life been different.  Don't miss the dramatic unveiling of the figure who has been awaited for so long, whose presence promises to either restore or ruin the house's fragile tranquility.

• THE HOUSE OF THE SEVEN GABLES (CHAP 6) MAULE'S WELL

  Welcome back to 1001 Ghost, Chiller, and Lovecraft Stories!  Today we go deeper into the atmospheric gloom and ancestral secrets of Nathaniel Hawthorne's masterful Gothic "romance," The House of the Seven Gables, featuring Chapter VI, "Maule's Well".  In this unsettling episode, the bright, cheerful Phœbe ventures into the old Pyncheon garden—a place of rank decay and strange order—where she encounters the mysterious daguerreotypist, Holgrave, whose conversation reveals chilling insights into the family's dark inheritance.  Phœbe is given an ominous caution concerning the moss-rimmed fountain at the garden's center, known as Maule's Well, which Holgrave warns is "water bewitched".  As the young girl grapples with this deep history, she senses an unfamiliar, vague murmur and an unseen presence lurking in Hepzibah's dark parlor, hinting that the past is finally making itself known in the present.  Tune in to discover what terrifying truths lie submerged within the cursed depths of Maule's Well.

• THE HOUSE OF THE SEVEN GABLES (CHAP 5) MAY AND NOVEMBER

  Welcome back to 1001 Ghost, Chiller, and Lovecraft Stories for Chapter V, "May and November," of Nathaniel Hawthorne's The House of the Seven Gables.  The ancient, decaying Pyncheon mansion is suddenly illuminated by the arrival of young Phœbe, whose sunny disposition immediately begins to purify chambers long tenanted only by spiders, and mice, and rats, and ghosts. As the cheerful newcomer attempts to bring life back to dusty antiques, including a harpsichord that looks more like a coffin than anything else, and soothe Hepzibah's melancholy heart, the dark reality of the Pyncheon legacy is subtly brought to light.  The curtain is pulled back just enough to reveal that the true master of the house is coming, and the accomplished but tragic ghost of Alice Pyncheon is still supposed to haunt the house, sometimes heard playing exquisitely mournful music on her instrument.  In this blend of realism and spectral atmosphere, Hawthorne intentionally labeled his work a "Romance" rather than a realistic novel, a distinction in 19th-century literary terms that gave him the imaginative freedom to explore the psychological, supernatural, and symbolic elements that cling to the very walls of the Seven Gables.
