Hansel and Gretel are lost in the enchanted forest while helping their father gather wood. Luckily for them, a carriage comes by. Unluckily, it belongs to the Evil Queen. She offers to help the missing children find their father if they can sneak into the Blind Witch’s house for her and steal a satchel from her. But she warns them to beware. Only a child can break into the witch’s house, but she’s got a very special security system—her house is made of delicious treats! One bite, and the Blind Witch can find you. The two kids sneak into the house and Gretel grabs the satchel, but Hansel can’t resist a cupcake. The witch comes to life in terrifying fashion and is ready to cook the kids, but the pair get the better of her and force her into her own oven, where the Evil Queen takes care of her old enemy via her Magic Mirror.
When the kids turn over the satchel, the Queen tells them she’d like them to stay with her as her own children. When they refuse, she banishes them to the Infinite Forest, to be lost forever. We then learn she captured their father as well, and tells him he will never find his children again.
