The Forest that Conquered

By Thomas C. Stuhr

While out hiking in a dark forest in West Virginia, Matthew discovers something of great interest inside a mysterious cave, yet he gets more than he bargains for, and is held captive by a wild wizard who has gone haywire. Weird creatures, blood thirsty mosquitoes and a man that will stop at nothing to escape his captivity from inside a metal cage that makes him a prisoner.

This short story is for pure entertainment, I came up with the idea for the story while I was out hiking one morning in early spring of 2021.

This fiction story is pretty funny to me, has a bit of the twilight zone feel to it, and I am offering it to all my readers for absolutely free. It’s my gift to you all for your continued interest in my artistic craft of writing and storytelling.
