Reading Passage: The Haunted Forest

In the heart of the ancient woods, where shadows danced and whispers echoed, there lived a girl named Lily who was known for her brave spirit. One stormy night, she ventured into the forest, where the trees seemed alive, their branches reaching out like ghostly hands. As she moved deeper, a chilling wind carried strange voices, calling her name. Suddenly, a pair of glowing eyes appeared in the darkness, and Lily realized she was not alone in the haunted woods.
