Smugglers’ Tunnels

Places in the daytime are exactly the same at night. But in the dark, some places become scary because the light makes strange shadows and the sounds seem louder and closer. Can you think of a time when you were scared in the dark? This story happened in ancient alleyways and tunnels that were used long ago by pirates and smugglers.
