EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, taken on the 1st of January 1955, a young girl stands alone at the entrance of Nuns Walk in Borley Rectory, Essex. Known for its supernatural history, this rural path has been rumored to be haunted by the ghost of a nun since 1900. The image captures a moment filled with curiosity and intrigue as the girl peers down the eerie pathway. Surrounded by open spaces and towering trees, she stands with her back facing us, creating an air of mystery. Her solitary presence adds to the haunting atmosphere that permeates through this photograph. With only one person visible in the frame, it emphasizes both her vulnerability and bravery as she explores this paranormal location. The composition highlights not only the girl but also draws attention to a tree trunk beside her. It serves as a visual anchor amidst an otherwise ethereal scene. The vertical format enhances the sense of height and space within this rural setting. This archival image transports us back to an era where leisure activities involved exploring unknown territories rather than digital distractions. It invites us to contemplate whether there truly is something supernatural lurking beyond our perception or if it's merely folklore passed down through generations. Thurston Hopkins' masterful photography captures both our fascination with otherworldly phenomena and our innate desire for adventure in uncharted territories.
