The Yellow Wallpaper

Two men on holiday in the country find an old manuscript in the house where they are staying. The diary of a woman who stayed there many decades previously, it describes her being sent there by her doctor and husband as a cure for the hysteric condition he has diagnosed her as suffering from. The weeks pass and her diary entries become increasingly erratic and irrational, and she starts to fantasise about the world around her. Eventually they start to wonder if the very thing designed to cure her may actually be driving her mad.
