Hansel & Gretel

The story begins with Mason, a local man in Candlewood, venturing into Gretel's bakery one fateful night. Unbeknownst to the community, he meets a tragic end at the hands of a hooded figure, igniting fear and tension among the townsfolk.

Hansel, a former innocent turned adept witch hunter, learns of Mason's disappearance and rushes back to Candlewood. He seeks out Gretel, with whom he has lost touch, hoping to uncover the truth behind Mason's fate.

As darkness envelops the town, a coven of witches, including Circe and Cthonia, gathers in the woods. They plot vengeance for their slain sister Lilith, aiming to reclaim control of her bakery and wreak havoc on Candlewood.

Hansel and Gretel meet with Jacob and Willy, Mason’s brother and roommate, to share their suspicions about a new witch in town. Their conversation takes a dark turn when a homeless woman, manipulated by the witches, attacks them, leading to chaos and Gretel's capture.

Imprisoned in Lilith's bakery, Gretel confronts the witches who reveal their intentions. In a chilling exchange, Gretel admits to killing Lilith and is offered a deal: deliver Hansel’s head in exchange for control of the bakery.

Gretel begins to manipulate Willy and sends horrifying photographs to Hansel, leading him to investigate a mysterious abandoned warehouse. Determined to rescue Gretel and Willy, Hansel rushes to their aid, but the witches' magic obscures their efforts.

As the fog settles, Gretel consumes fallen witch Kikimora's remains, further intertwining her fate with dark magic. Her transformation shapes her next moves, as she begins to plot against Hansel and those close to him.

Circumstances lead to Hansel being hypnotized into contemplating self-harm by Circe. Just as he seems poised for tragedy, a sudden fog brings him back to reality, allowing him to wound Circe in a desperate fight for survival.

Hansel and Willy discover a package containing Jacob’s eyes, which sets them on a grisly quest to uncover the fate of their friend. They follow a sinister trail that leads them to unsettling discoveries regarding Gretel's true nature.

In a climactic encounter, Hansel kills Morai, a member of the witch coven, reveling in a momentary victory. Yet, Gretel chooses a darker path, consuming Morai's blood and further deepening her involvement with dark forces.

Gretel brutally beheads her grandmother to assert her power over the coven. This violent act cements her control and leads to an unsettling resurrection ceremony aimed at bringing Lilith back from the dead.

The climactic battle ensues between Gretel, Hansel, and the resurrected Lilith. The twist of betrayal occurs when Hansel kills Gretel, but she inexplicably revives, leading to a frenetic and deadly clash among the siblings.

As the intense conflict escalates, the police finally arrive at the scene just as Hansel shoots Gretel in the shoulder. This marks a pivotal moment where the chaotic battle reaches a sudden and precarious halt.

In the aftermath of their tumultuous battle, both Hansel and Gretel walk away together, forever changed by their dark secrets and the violent events they have endured. Their relationship is forever altered, bonded by the horrors they faced.
