May all of your wishes come true, but watch out for the train! It runs three times a day through the leafy tunnel.

who lived in a neighboring mansion and died in mysterious circumstances hundreds of years ago,
haunts the country road. “Grey Lady” silently floats along the road and quickly disappears as she reaches the last beech tree.
