Around her drift the wilis

You can find all sorts of things in a dark forest. Especially when it’s nice and atmospheric like this. Look at that mist curling around the black tree trunks, the moon peering through the overhead boughs, those mysterious shadows. This is loup garou territory for sure. I wouldn’t be at all surprised to meet a party of desperate Scottish Highlanders outrunning the red coats. And there’s always the possibility of coming across ghosts…

This particular forest is infamous for the wilis—the ghostly spirits of young women who were betrayed by their lovers and died of grief. Someone thought it was a grand idea to put their graves out here, in the forest. Each night, they rise.

But don’t worry, you’re pretty safe from all of that. Neil Gaiman says you can trust the wolves (just don’t tell them where you’re going). Unless you’re a sassenach, the Highlanders will likely leave you alone. And the ghosts? If you’re one of the dead jilted brides, like Giselle, you’ll join their ranks. If you’re a man and foolish enough to stray into their glade, they’ll capture you and force you to dance until you die. Apart from that, you’ll be fine. Probably.
