Hansel and Gretel Escape Room

A poor woodcutter and his wife had two children named Hansel and Gretel. Their mother died when they were young. Hansel and Gretel were very sad. Soon their father remarried but their stepmother was very cruel. One day, she took the children deep into the forest and left them there.

. . . This is getting scary, but we are going to skip right to the scariest part.

In front of their eyes and noses sat a house made entirely out of the most delicious looking sweets.The roof was coated with fluffy white icing; pink, sticky syrup drizzled and dripped along the sides of the dark chocolate exterior; a gum drop door frame was sopping with sparkling icing sugar; a frothy milk chocolate river flowed under a gingerbread bridge that led to a gingerbread door; and a lollipop garden sat in front of a large crystallized sugar window.

Hansel and Gretel stood stunned for a moment, and then, without caution or hesitation, they ran to the house and began stuffing their faces full of candy. (We skipped past the part where they had been in the forest for a long time without food)

"What little pretties have come to my house today?" screeched an odd voice. Hansel and Gretel stopped short and stared at one another – each was messy and covered in candy.

. . Too scary yet? We are just keep going for a little longer. . .

Now, a wicked witch lived there. When she saw Hansel and Gretel, she wanted to eat them. She grabbed Hansel and locked him in a cage while Gretel was put to work. The witch decided to make a soup out of Hansel and eat him first. The Witch headed outside to start her cauldron.

"Now Gretel, keep sweeping and don't be talking to the cat!"

Now comes the part where we need to help Hansel and Gretel escape.
