In one town lived a bookseller named Bartoloměj. He loved his work and was content with his life, but there was one thing missing: a lovely wife. One day, a charming girl named Klárka entered his shop, and he fell in love with her at first sight. So when Klárka and her aunt, a confused witch, were driven out of their cottage by forest ghosts, Bartoloměj gladly took them in. But this did not please his servant Stanislav, who had planned to force his daughter on the bookseller as his wife. And so he conspired with the forest ghosts to commit a despicable betrayal...
