Victorian Psycho
Grim Wolds, England, on a stretch of Yorkshire moorland. Winifred Notty arrives at Ensor House ready to play the perfect governess to the Pounds children, Drusilla and Andrew. She also lets us know, right at the start, that in three months everyone in the house will be dead. Virginia Feito's second novel, after Mrs. March, is gory, sardonic and darkly funny about the cruelties of a Victorian household.
Hear Feito take Winifred from page to screen at 92NY on Monday, November 2. Then Zachary Wigon's Victorian Psycho (Bleecker Street), written by Feito and starring Maika Monroe, Jason Isaacs, Thomasin McKenzie and Ruth Wilson, opens in theaters November 13, 2026. Impeccable manners, a very long list of grievances, and Christmas coming. Get tickets
