In “A Face in the Dark”, Ruskin Bond ends the story when it reaches its climax. Climax is the most intense, exciting, or important point of something.
In the present story the protagonist Mr. Oliver is an Anglo-Indian teacher in an English public school at Simla, Himachal Pradesh. One evening he was returning to his school from the Simla bazaar all alone through a pine forest as he usually does. A supernatural atmosphere has been created in the form of a dark night where the pine trees were making an eerie sound with the high wind flowing through them. Mr. Oliver was carrying a torch but its batteries were running down. Oliver was walking down the narrow forest path when he encounters two paranormal figures in the form of a boy and a watchman both of whom had no eyes, ears, nose or mouth on their face.
