GRIMM FAIRY TALES #9

The very eccentric and very rich Mr. Lockett is smitten with the much younger and very beautiful Goldilocks. His advances finally prove successful as Goldy accepts an offer to move into his estate. However, little does Mr. Lockett know that Goldilocks is certainly not all she's cracked up to be. She has a shocking plan to take his fortune out from under his nose even if it means killing him. But Goldilocks quickly learns that gold-digging might not be the best career move after she finds 3 much bigger problems to contend with.   The modern setting is established with a young woman who is married to a man only so that she can get his money.  In the meanwhile she is having an affair with a man her own age and they plot to kill the old man later that night.  Sela enters and the young woman reads the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears.  This story more closely resembles the modern setting which was introduced and not the classic fairy tale as the character is being wooed by an old man (said to be a wizard) while being in love with a man her own age.  The two decide on a plot to infiltrate his home and kill him.  The bears are included in this story, except they are they are shown as statues which defend the house.  She enters by finally accepting his offer and when he goes to sleep she lets the young man in who goes to the room and kills the old man.  AS they try to escape they are attacked by the bear statues which have come to life.  The action switches back to the modern setting where the young woman races off to stop her boyfriend from killing the old man, but finds both of them dead, her young lover with what appears to be claw marks on his back.
