First published on July 11, 1912, in The Eye-Witness, Ancient Lights by Algernon Blackwood is a haunting tale of supernatural terror and the mysterious power of nature. A surveyor's clerk enters an isolated woodland while investigating a proposed alteration to the trees. What begins as an ordinary shortcut soon becomes an unsettling journey as the forest seems to take on a strange life of its own. As the boundaries between the natural and supernatural begin to blur, the traveler discovers that the ancient woodland holds secrets far beyond anything he expected. ([steve-calvert.co.uk][1])
