ONCE - Once Upon a Time podcast
Reviews, theories, and talk about ABC's Once Upon a Time TV show
I’ve never experienced that problem…
But this is in a different version of our world. Much fiction – from the characters to the places – are derived or are completely taken from “our” world. But why couldn’t there be connections between the worlds? Similarities, differences.
This would be the Gothic Horror version of our world, The Enchanted Forest is the Fairytale Version of our world… Or I guess another way to say it is that we are the version of The Enchanted Forest with no magic.
My vote goes for Vlad as well. Makes sense as Dracula is THE definitive Gothic Horror character.
I don’t think it’s that specific. As we see with “The Enchanted Forest” world, it’s expansive and covers various realms, seas, countries — it’s an entire world. Many of the characters in fairytale flashback refer to it as a full world, so it should be assumed that other realms are full worlds just like our’s and the fairytale world. So for Frankenstein, him and his castle is just a segment of the world, a Gothic Horror world. So he has his home location, but across the world there’s Transylvania and Dracula, in another part of the world comes other gothic horror stories etc.
YES! I love you.
Ooh.

Another infamous character Rumpel reminds me of is Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vadar. He starts off wanting to protect his loved ones, but in his quest for answers, ends up becoming the very thing he hated the most.
And he also force choked Smee.
Great post! I really love your catch on the devil-like character. Very interesting fairy-tale there, and could definitely work.
Yeah your post is where I saw it! He’s definitely got to be someone special.
44!
