Candy Witch Epilogue

At the edge of a big forest, there lived a witch. She was known as the candy witch. Her house was made out of ginger bread and frosting. The windows were made out of sugar crystals and chocolate ice cream sticks and the roof was made out of chocolate squares. The Candy Witch was feared by all the children!

No one dared go near her home, or set foot in her front yard. They stayed away from her because there was talk that she turned any child that crossed her yard, or entered her home into candy statues!
