Deep in Potsford Wood, a sense of unease settles over travellers, particularly those who venture here at night. It's a place with a dark history, marked by the site where Jonah Snell was hanged, though it's unclear if he's the malevolent presence felt by visitors. In the 1980s, a truck driver stopped to answer nature's call near a plaque commemorating the event. As he walked into the woods, he felt a tap on his shoulder. Turning, he was face to face with a skeletal form, hooded and dressed in black robes. The shock was too much, and he quickly ran back to his vehicle and drove away.
