When the Forest Calls at Sunset
What happens when everything you believed about the people you love turns out to be a lie? One evening in colonial Salem, a young man kisses his wife goodbye and walks into the forest for a mysterious errand that cannot wait until morning. By dawn, he returns physically unharmed but spiritually shattered, unable to look his neighbors in the eye or embrace his own wife. Nathaniel Hawthorne's "Young Goodman Brown" tells this deceptively simple story in fewer than 5,000 words, yet its psychological depth continues to unsettle readers nearly two centuries later. Stephen King credits it as a primary influence on his exploration of small-town darkness. The tale forces us to confront an uncomfortable question: Is evil something we discover in others, or something we project from within ourselves?
