Who is the initial victim in the movie?
The darkness enveloped Candlewood as Mason, a local denizen, entered Gretel’s inviting pie shop and bakery under the cloak of night. Little did the townspeople know that his tragic end at the hands of a mysterious hooded figure would ignite a terrifying game of cat and mouse throughout the community.
In the meantime, Hansel, a once-innocent young man, had transformed into an adept witch hunter over the years. His latest target, the enigmatic Bunny, was just one of his recent victories when he learned of Mason’s sudden disappearance. Driven by a sense of urgency, Hansel returned to Candlewood to reconnect with Gretel, whom he hadn’t spoken to in over a year. Upon arriving at her doorstep, he found her consumed with dread about Mason’s fate, theorizing that he had been brutally murdered in the very bakery where they used to find comfort and safety.
As darkness descended further, a formidable coven of witches—Circe, Kikimora, Morai, and their high priestess Cthonia—convened in the woods, their dark intentions seeping into the air as they manipulated a homeless woman into serving as their unwitting tool. They plotted vengeance for their slain sister Lilith and aimed to reclaim her bakery.
The following day, Hansel and Gretel sought out Jacob and Willy, the brother and roommate of Mason. Hansel voiced suspicions that a new witch had taken over Lilith’s bakery, but Jacob and Willy were doubtful. However, their skepticism soon turned to horror when the homeless woman attacked them, firing a barrage of bullets. As chaos ensued, Gretel was captured while Hansel and the others scrambled for safety. After neutralizing the homeless woman, Hansel discovered the witches’ mark on her forehead, validating his fears even as panic escalated with Gretel’s mysterious disappearance.
Bound and vulnerable within Lilith’s bakery, Gretel faced the witches who now held her life in their hands. She confessed to having murdered Lilith, admitting she had consumed a piece of her rival’s flesh, which granted her dark powers. In a twisted exchange, Cthonia offered Gretel a Faustian bargain: in return for Hansel’s severed head, she would gain control over Lilith’s bakery. Yet if she failed to deliver, the consequences would be dire. Time was ticking, and the fate of Candlewood hovered precariously as former friends were pitted against one another in a treacherous struggle for survival.
As Gretel began to manipulate Willy’s fate, Hansel remained unaware of the sinister game unfolding around him. Soon, he received a series of eerie photographs on his phone depicting Gretel and Willy in precarious situations, the results of her calculated scheming. Sharing these alarming images with Jacob, who had developed skills in photography, they deciphered the telltale signs of an abandoned warehouse in the background. Converging on the distressed location, they aimed to rescue Gretel and Willy, but their efforts were thwarted as Kikimora conjured a blinding fog, obscuring their sight. In a gruesome twist, Gretel fed on the fallen witch’s remains, enhancing her powers.
While Hansel and Jacob attended to Willy’s injuries, they remained ignorant of Gretel’s dark intentions simmering in the shadows. Gretel awaited Circe’s arrival, determined to exact revenge for her fallen sister. Proposing a devious alliance, she offered to lead Circe to Hansel, setting the stage for bloody retribution. Meanwhile, Hansel continued his daily routine at his bakery, blissfully unaware of the doom lurking ahead. Without his knowledge, Circe sought to manipulate his actions, and Gretel, unwittingly complicit, enabled Circe to hypnotize Hansel into contemplating a horrifying act of self-harm. Just as he was poised to stab himself, the re-emergence of Gretel’s blinding fog brought him back to reality and allowed him to turn the tables, fatally wounding Circe.
As Circe’s existence faded, Gretel, cloaked in the mist, savored her victim’s blood, further amplifying her malicious power. With these newfound abilities, she shifted her focus to Jacob, hoping to hypnotize him into a state of hopelessness. However, his sexual orientation proved a barrier to her plans. Ultimately, she resorted to sheer force, brutally ending his life in a manifestation of her overwhelming strength.
When Hansel and Willy stumbled upon a package containing Jacob’s eyes on their doorstep, it marked the beginning of a grisly quest that would unravel the dark fabric of their family’s past. Each clue revealed a fragment of Jacob’s dismembered body, sending them down a morbid path. Meanwhile, Gretel secretly transported the remainder of Jacob’s body to Morai, pretending to be innocent as Hansel and Willy followed the trail of chilling notes leading to Morai’s sinister lair. In a shocking turn of events, Hansel brutally killed Morai, relishing in a fleeting victory with Willy; however, Gretel chose a darker path, consuming Morai’s blood with unsettling delight.
Cthonia, the coven’s ominous leader, soon disrupted their actions, summoning Gretel through her grandmother’s phone, threatening to annihilate her beloved family member. In a fit of rage, Gretel gruesomely beheaded her grandmother before Cthonia could act, claiming the high priestess’s ring and assuming control over the coven. As they ventured to the local pet cemetery, Gretel revealed the unsettling truth: Lilith was buried beneath them.
Emboldened by her newfound authority, Gretel initiated a resurrection ceremony using dark magic, successfully reanimating Lilith. Yet her moment of triumph was short-lived; she soon turned violent and killed Cthonia, allowing Lilith to return to the realm of the living. In a dramatic twist, Willy, now identified as a powerful witch-crone, obliterated Lilith with a surge of mystical energy, leading Hansel to turn on his sister in a fit of betrayal, slitting her throat. However, Gretel miraculously revived, leading to an explosive confrontation between the siblings.
Neither side willing to back down, the battle escalated until Hansel shot Gretel in the shoulder just as the police arrived, marking the end of their tumultuous clash. Acquiescing to defeat, Hansel and Gretel walked away together, their fates intertwined and their dark secrets forever binding them.
