Brilliant. On the one hand, the supernatural entity that exists and can be reasoned with so long as you follow a particular set of prompts gives heavy Fey vibes. On the other, the supernatural entity which isn't inherently evil, is a part of the world if just beneath it, and can even be a helpful friend so long as you stay on its good side sounds a bit Yokai-ish. A nice contrast to spooky witches beckoning large lizards from ominous rulebooks. Then again, it was a she, and we never heard about any of her adornments.
That's exactly what I was going for. I was reading a lot of "rule-based" creepypasta, which apparently is a genre unto itself. It is all very fey-coded. Suffice to say, she had a hat. Probably covered in flour.
That's a story for another day. Mostly one about why tree-dwelling elves who work with industrial baking equipment are not exempt from following OSHA safety protocols, which I'm afraid Ernie Keebler discovered the hard way.

Sure, the baker’s hat is more curved than pointed, but it still clocks.

Fails to mention the vicious blood feud between the witch at cookie shack and the Keebler Elves.
