The Cave Church (which is still in use) is not spectacular, but it is charming in its own right. Off the beaten path, but worth a 30-minute detour.

He now understands why: he's dreaming, and Nightmare is scripting the script. In his tiredness, Stephen failed to recite the incantation that guards against such things.
