The old woman then invited Hansel
and Gretel into her house.
"There's more candy in here! Fresh candy, my sweets!" she called to them, motioning them inside her house.
Hansel immediately ran into the candy house
despite Gretel's cautious protests. After a while of standing outside, the old woman popped her jagged-toothed head out from the little house and beckoned Gretel:
"Come in, come in. My, my, you are very pretty!"
With this, alongside her idea of Hansel stuffing his face in the interior of the house, Gretel eventually followed inside.
When Gretel entered the house, she immediately heard the gingerbread door shut heavily behind her. She
turned around and noticed that the entire inside of the candy house was made of solid steel. Inside the house were bags and bags of brilliant gold coins.
Gretel whipped her head back
around to see that Hansel was locked up in a cage hanging directly overtop of a boiling pot of water! This woman was no woman at all - she was an EVIL WITCH!
