Step into the shadowed woods of 17th-century Scotland in this gripping BBC Radio adaptation of Witch Wood, John Buchan’s masterful tale of faith, fear, and forbidden rituals. Young Presbyterian minister David Sempill arrives in the remote parish of Woodilee, only to find that his flock harbors ancient secrets. As he uncovers disturbing pagan rites hidden in the forest, Sempill must wrestle with his conscience, the rigid dogma of the Covenanters, and the forces that seek to destroy him.

Originally broadcast as part of BBC’s Saturday Night Theatre, this atmospheric drama blends historical fiction with supernatural tension, exploring themes of religious extremism, moral courage, and spiritual conflict.
