“Granny, why is it so dark in here?” Said Little Red Riding Hood..

“I’ve been sick, my child, and the light hurts my eyes. Come closer.” A furry paw beckoned to Little Red Riding Hood from out of the shadows.

“Granny! What big, furry, hands you’ve got!” Said Little Red Riding Hood, definitely a bit shocked.

“All the better to stroke you with, my child.” Said the trembling voice from the shadows. “Come closer so that I can stroke your beautiful hair.”

Two fierce, hungry, eyes glared brightly from out of the dark place where the trembling voice came from. Little Red Riding Hood took a step closer to her grandmother’s bed.

“But grandmother, what big eyes you’ve got!” She said.

“All the better to see you with, my child. Come closer so that I can see your pretty face more clearly.” Said the trembling voice from the shadow, followed by an eager, sniffing sound.

“Granny, I don’t want to seem rude, but - what a big nose you have!” Said Little Red Riding Hood, stepping closer, a little afraid now, but curious, curious, curious.

“All the better to smell you with!” said the trembling voice from the shadows, only this time, the voice trembled less, and there was a sly, hungry sound to it. “come closer, so that I can smell the sweet perfume of your fresh, young skin.” Little Red Riding Hood, uncertain and nervous, stepped closer and saw a set of shiny teeth being licked by a drooling, red, tongue.

“Grandmother! What big teeth you have!” Said Little Red Riding Hood, terrified now.

“All the better to EAT you with!” Said the wolf, as he leaped out of the bed and swallowed Little Red Riding Hood in one, big bite!
