In western Poland, near the town of Gryfino, lies the Crooked Forest—a bizarre grove of pine trees that all bend sharply at the base before growing straight upwards. This eerie and mysterious landscape has captivated filmmakers and storytellers for years, making it a perfect setting for fantasy and sci-fi productions. While its origins remain a mystery (some believe it was caused by human intervention, others say it's a natural phenomenon), the forest's unnatural beauty has made it a surreal backdrop for fantasy worlds in European cinema.
