When Night Falls is a thriller set in 1932 about two nurses trapped in a country mansion with their invalid patient whilst a killer is on the loose in the area. Conscious of the potential danger, both nurses make sure that the house is locked and secure. However, as the night progresses, strange things begin to happen. Objects appear to have moved without explanation, and noises are heard where all should be still. Are the nurses so on edge that their minds are playing tricks on them? Or could their worst fears be true, and someone else is in the house?
Famous quotes containing the words night and/or falls:
“And what do I care if she marries another? every other night I dream of her dresses and things on an endless clothesline of bliss, in a ceaseless wind of possession, and her husband shall never learn what I do to the silks and fleece of the dancing witch. This is love’s supreme accomplishment. I am happy—yes, happy! What more can I do to prove it, how to proclaim that I am happy? Oh, to shout it so that all of you believe me at last, you cruel, smug people.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
““Dark times” is what they call it in Norway when the sun remains below the horizon all day long: the temperature falls slowly but surely at such times.—A nice metaphor for all those thinkers for whom the sun of mankind’s future has temporarily disappeared.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
