Then, dearest Maiden, move along these shades
In gentleness of heart; with gentle hand
Touch—for there is a spirit in the woods.

There are often more toads around in Spring but if you're in Japan you should beware of ogama, giant toad #yokai created when toads reach 1000 years old. They live deep in the forests & the larger they grow, the more dangerous they become.

Hoia-Baciu Forest, Romania, an area with curved trees, has gained paranormal notoriety around the world and is known as the "Bermuda Triangle of Transylvania“. Wandering people additionally suffer under rashes, nausea and anxiety. Even an UFO was spotted.
The boy gave his parents much anxiety;he became nervous and strange in his manner,refusing to leave the cottage by himself,and constantly alarming the household by waking in the night with cries of "The man in the wood! Father!"
