Excerpt:

“It was now that the steady clack, clack, clack as of a spinning-wheel at work began to make itself heard through the stilly night. The eerie sound came from the direction of a disused turret-chamber on the west side of the keep, and as it continued for a long time without intermission, the discomfited warder made his way by devious passages to that part of the building whence the noise proceeded. Who could be at work at this dead hour of the night puzzled him no little.”
