I also think he read about it in the book, but obviously it doesn’t figure in his own story of Peasant Rumple becomes the Dark One. Nor would it be in “Rumpelstiltskin” and the Miller’s Daughter unless mentioned in passing. I think it would feature in Belle’s story and he probably figured the beast was his father.
Could be.
I wish stories from that book were made available to us. It would answer a lot of questions.
[adrotate group="5"]October 4, 2013 at 9:20 am #213860RumplesGirlKeymasterMy guess is part of Belle’s story is in the book, and by the time Henry gives Neal the book (in SBandT) Neal already knows about Belle through the phone call in Miller’s Daughter which was just a few episodes before.

ABC could make a nice little chunk of change if they sold that storybook.

How could Rumble’s castle be in the book, if Bae was in it in his old clothes, also remember Henry couldn’t figure out who Mr. Gold was so no the book didn’t have him in his castle if anything would show him in jail since that is when the curse happen since they show Emma in her blanket with Charming.

Henry couldn’t figure out who Mr. Gold was but Rumple was in the book–Cinderella’s story, for example, we know is in the book because Henry knew about the enchanted quill incident. Henry just couldn’t connect the dots and I suspect it’s because Rumple’s NAME isn’t in the book. I don’t think they ever name “The Dark One” or Baelfire’s father.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"October 4, 2013 at 9:36 am #213865kfchimeraParticipantThe reason I think it would be Belle, is yes, Neal heard about her in Miller’s daughter phonecall.
Her story obviously mentions his castle as he needed a maid and she had to come live there, no way to avoid showing it right?

I don’t think her story is in the book especially since she was locked up the book had only stories of people who are currently living in SB.
October 4, 2013 at 10:11 am #213873sacrlcParticipantPerhaps he heard about it when he was a lost boy. Felix called Rumple the “Dark One”. Also, it’s evident Rumple spent time in Neverland as the “Dark One”, so he was already known to PP and the lost boys. Bae was in Neverland for a couple hundred years, so he would know that Rumple was there and he hid so Rumple couldn’t find him, but he heard everything they knew about Rumple, including the castle.
Don't grow up. It's a trap.
