SO… after re watching this episode;I think it is possible, that there are many more stories (characters) to discover/explore in this land:
I found it interesting that the setting was in a holiday or Christmas time (there was a Xmas tree in Frankenstein house) So based on this I immediately started to have ideas:
-The Nutcracker (Holiday Special episode next year maybe?? lolz 😆 )
-The Steadfast Tin Soldier (Could Gerhardt be the soilder?? 😥 )
-The Little Match Girl
– A Nightmare before ChristmasBased on the black and white setting/type of interior decorations and the Horror element of Frankenstein’s story; I started to think: *(I don’t know if the stories are TOO dark for a show like Once, but who knows maybe the writers can make it work with the art of being subtle):
Dr.Jekyll and Mr.Hyde
The Picture of Dorian Gray
Dracula
The Raven¿What do you guys think?..For me it would be really fun to see these classic tales come to life with a new twist in the world of “Once” ¿What more stories do you think could fit in the LAND WITHOUT COLOR?
[adrotate group="5"]Like two years ago while browsing around youtube, I stumbled acrossed skary.net; very awesome skary animations about kids.
The graphics are 👿 and started making a nice playlist on the favorite animations. They’re more of dark comedy types, which may or may not be your cup of tea but it would be fun to see these animations on OUAt now that you mention other stories for the world without color.
East of the sun, Nutcracker was my thought too!
Personally, I would love to see Van Helsing in there 😉
And obisgirl, what have you done?! I don’t seem to be able to stop watching now! 😈
Dracula is the next likely choice, as others have stated. I would like to see The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, which also doesn’t hurt having a Disney adaptation already.

Great suggestions! Don’t forget:
Phantom of the Opera
or
Hunchback of Notre Dame
Those would both work in LWC too.
Some very interesting suggestions!!! I hope they eventually explore them in ONCE….and OBISGIRL: @obisgirl wrote:

thank you for the link 😀 I am a BIG fan of animation and dark fairytales so naturally I loved them….have you seen the short animated film ALMA (its really creepy and has very pretty animation): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tECaYQ1AzkM

Surely they couldn’t resist showing us their take on Van Helsing vs Dracula. I’d have that vamp at the top of my list of characters who I’d expect to see next if they explore this world more, and if they have Dracula, they’ll have to have Van Helsing too.
Van Helsing was a doctor, so perhaps he was a friend and colleague of Viktor’s? And maybe Dracula wanted to get his paws on Gerhardt to turn him into a SuperDuperImmortalMonster, and Van Helsing will protect him, being a friend of the family. (Pure speculation of course, I’m just wondering how they’d tie more characters from that world into the storyline.)
E.T.A. Hoffmann’s “Der Sandmann” (Sandman) could also fit into this land. I would really like to see an automaton/roboter girl like Olympia.

I like that connection.
