First, In “Hansel and Gretel” the author uses the forests a dark and unforgivable place. The woods was the places that the parents left their kids, and where the witch who tries to kill them. This shows that the woods in this story were not meant to be happy and positive, but a dark and scary place. Secondly, Howard Pyle the author of The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood

Gretel believed her brother was going crazy. Then (this is where I come in) they saw a giant house made of lots of candy and frosting. I remember the day like yesterday... I was inside making a new white chocolate fence to keep out unwanted visitors. Isn't that ironic how I decided to make a fence to keep out little brats like Hansel and Gretel. Anyway, I was cutting the chocolate when I heard a noise, it sounded like, well someone eating my house. I looked out my window expecting some animals, and sure enough I did. A fat little boy was attacking my house and a small girl was sitting gnawing on a liquorice

Their telling of Hansel and Gretel’s heroic triumph exposed the witch to be a feeble old woman. No longer were the elderly women in the village diabolically terrifying. The dark forest and it’s mysteries were celebrated, instead of feared gathering place for witches Sabbaths. The tale of the gingerbread house with it’s cannibal witch became a moral teaching for disobedient children. This evolution of the witch carries on into modern times. Children around the world are read the story of Hansel and Gretel. Their triumph as caused the witch to be likened to the monster underneath the bed. Nothing to be scared of and certainly nothing to panic over. As Roper commented, “No longer the death dealing harpy, the old woman was cut down to size, reduced to a bogey to frighten children” (Roper

“Girl!” she called to Gretel, “Go get some water, today is the day I will slaughter and eat your brother.” Gretel did as she was told, tears streaming down her face as she wept for her brother. The witch had a fire burning in the oven when Gretel returned with the water.
