A walk through the Haunted Wood

The Green Gables portal to the Haunted Wood (Wood without an "s")

 The portal to the Wood is located at the bottom of a steep slope which constitutes the front lawn at Green Gables.  This spooky path eventually leads to the Macneill Homestead.  My experience on the path was of a pleasant stroll through cooling shade of trees and foliage.  Still,  I saw some eerie shadows dancing around me during my short sojourn there!  I personally would not want to experience this place alone at night!  (No matter what Marilla says!)

The Wood ends with an opening into the splendid vista of the Macneill homestead.

"Fiddlesticks! There is no such thing as a haunted wood anywhere. Who has been telling you such stuff?" "Nobody," confessed Anne. "Diana and I just imagined the wood was haunted. All the places around here are so—so—COMMONPLACE. We just got this up for our own amusement. We began it in April. A haunted wood is so very romantic, Marilla. We chose the spruce grove because it's so gloomy. Oh, we have imagined the most harrowing things."  (AoGG)
