Who are the ”spinsters"

[vampirefan12]

Who are the “spinsters” that raise Rum when he was a child?

¿Could they be the 3 spinsters? From the Grimm fairytale??? In the original fairytale they help a girl, who was ordered by the queen to spin a room full of flax, once they help her she is to call them “cousins” and invite them to her wedding to the prince, (it has many similarities to the millers daughter tale in my opinion) maybe in Once they are the ones that take care of Rumple as a kid, and teach him how to spin at the wheel.

Vampirefan12 I think starting one thread would have been enough, I am gonna try and combine them.

Yeah maybe they will lean it on this story, but Rumple loves to spin, so I don’t think that he will be really a part of this story, but maybe this are the story of the women, before they got Rumple or after.
i think it nice that they will make a story, why he loves to spin. Not only why he did it as pre Dark One (it was his job), but also why he has got memorys when he was a child.I think I will love the story line. Because when he was raised by someone else, they can make a twist in his whole relation ship to Kings and Queens. Maybe he is from a fallen King a son, who run and he was hidden by Spinsters or his father was a normal man, who do somethng cowardly and drunk so much that he couldn’t be by his child. The next question is what happens to Rumples Mom and who is she.

Heros don't get their Happy Ending!

I was thinking the fates from mythology, which could also be the 3 witches from Macbeth – since prophecies will be important.

This thread shouldn’t be in a general discussion section of the forum. People who avoid spoilers wouldn’t have looked at the script excerpts that were tweeted, and this thread has a great big spoiler in the title. 😕

The spinsters originate from greek mythology as the three fates… And I already put that in the 3rd thread Vampirefan started, where he/she asks all the questions… so maybe that is the thread to keep
