на своих мётлах, ведьмы на больших расстояниях чуяли тех детей, которые ещё бодрствовали, и, проникая через окна и балконы, похищали их, чтобы держать в качестве слуг в своём логове, Проклятой горе. Ту гору окружал Заколдованный лес. Каждый, кто осмеливался пересечь его, был превращён в камень. И любая попытка родителей спасти своих детей заканчивалась новым несчастьем.Бедных детей ведьмы использовали в качестве прислуги, a тех, кто становился постарше, прекращали кормить и запирали в пещерах, оставляя их там на произвол судьбы.Деревенские жители, большинство из которых были обычными лесорубами, стали отчаиваться. Детей забирали ведьмы, а жителей деревень превращали в лесу в камни: всё казалось было потеряно для них.
