Plot
Siblings Hansel and Gretel are left alone in the woods by their father and captured by a dark witch in a candy house, but they kill the witch and escape. Years later, the orphans have become famous witch hunters. When 11 children go missing in a small village, the Mayor summons Hansel and Gretel to rescue them, and they save red-haired Mina from the local sheriff who wants to burn her for being a witch. Soon they discover that the Blood Moon will approach in three days and that powerful dark witch Muriel is responsible for all the abductions; she intends to use the children with a secret ingredient in a broth that will protect the coven of witches against the fire. Meanwhile, Hansel and Gretel discover secrets about their parents.
