Home of the Gingerbread House Witch in the Dwarf Forests. When Alex and Conner arrive in the Land of Stories for the first time, they stumble upon the house on their way to Rapunzel's Tower. Conner, knowing the story of Hansel and Gretel, does not want to go there, but Alex wants to see it. The witch comes out and tries to trick them to come inside, planning to eat them. Using his wit and logic, Conner tricks her into granting them a wish and wishes she becomes a vegetarian. She then no longer wants to eat them and lets them go free.
