... if I never see another gingerbread anything so long as I live, it will be too soon. 

A sentiment echoed by most of your party and Gretel. Slowly you carry on deeper into the woods. Gretel's ears suddenly perked up... I think I hear screaming. Follow me!

You run to keep up until another clearing, where you see a strange sight. Firstly a half man half teifling, you deduce this is Gretel's brother... but far more extraordinary is the thing chasing him.
