It's me, Granny. When she opens the door, she finds a zombie, Little Red Riding Hood. Once upon a time..." The title of the picture book is "Red Riding Hood". But it's about two old women, a wizard and a fortune-teller, who are fighting each other. The fortune-teller's granddaughter, Little Red Riding Hood, dies of the plague as soon as she comes out - and she's not the only one. But that's where her success comes in.
