The Forest is an optional level that can be accessed by destroying a section of the wall in one of the rooms on Cemetary 1. The section of wall to destroy is represented by a club in place of the circular or triangular patterns that make up the fencing surrounding the Cemetary Rooms. If you hit this section of wall then the entrance to The Forest will appear.
There are no new Monsters within The Forest, instead level is populated with monsters from both the Cemetary Levels and the Sewer Levels, which can result in fighting Werewolves and Green Slimes in the same room.

The level (unsurprisingly) has a forest theme, with the breakables being represented by small trees and sees the addition of a new type of trap. The Bear Trap harms the protagonist if it is walked over.
The final boss for The Forest is not a singular boss like other levels, instead it is the Werewolf Ambush, where the player is required to defeat multiple Werewolf monsters whilst also avoiding traps and other monsters.
The Forest is also where the Spade can be located - dropped by a Grave Robber - which can then be used to unlock a secret during the Sewer levels. The Spade is not a powerful weapon so it is often a better tactic to defeat the Werewolf Ambush using a stronger weapon and then return to pick up The Spade.
