Hansel and Gretel

Week 6 
News Story - Fairytale
Hansel and Gretel


Once upon a time, two young children were held captive and strangled to death by a seven-stone, 14-foot African rock python. Gretel seven years old and brother Hansel five years old were having a sleepover with a friend before they were found by Jean-Claude Savoie (a family friend), on their living room floor above a Reptile Ocean shop in New Brunswick.

Mr Savoie said "my body is in shock. I don't know what to think. I feel like they're my kids". His own son was sleeping in a different room and was unharmed, he said.
Savoie, is Hansel and Gretel's evil step mothers best friend who lived nearby. He frequently hosted them at his flat with his own child. The evil step-mother kept sending Hansel and Gretel away into the forest, further and further away so they could no longer remember how to get back home.

The children were oblivious about what they were in for, however in this story there was no happy ending.
