What to expect
Rumpelstiltskin is a small, peculiar creature from the Brothers Grimm fairy tale who can spin straw into gold. He makes deals with a desperate miller’s daughter who, due to her father’s boast, must perform this impossible task for a greedy king. In exchange for his help, Rumpelstiltskin demands increasing payment, culminating in the miller’s daughter promising him her firstborn child after she becomes queen. When he returns to claim the baby, he offers her a chance to keep the child if she can guess his unusual name within three days, a challenge she eventually succeeds at, leading to Rumpelstiltskin’s furious self-destruction.
