Produced by Jeff Kaylin and Andrew Sly "The Green Door" by Mary Eleanor Wilkins Freeman is a fantasy short story written in the early 20th century. This tale revolves around a young girl named Letitia, who becomes increasingly curious about a mysterious locked green door in her great-aunt's house. The story explores themes of curiosity, adventure, and the contrast between childhood desires and the restrictions of adult life. The narrative follows Letitia as she navigates her life with her elderly aunt and a maid in an old house steeped in family history. Isolated in her rural home and feeling constrained by the rules set by her great-aunt Peggy, she is particularly fascinated by a little green door that she is forbidden to open. One day, driven by curiosity and loneliness, Letitia discovers the key to the door and ventures through it, finding herself transported to a past-time where she meets her ancestors—including her great-great-great-grandfather, Captain John Hopkins. As she learns the ways of her forebears, Letitia realizes the challenges they faced, particularly the hard work and dangers of their world. Ultimately, her experiences allow her to understand the value of her own life, leading her to return home, humbled and more appreciative of her circumstances.
