* SadlyMythtaken: Hades makes a big deal about Zeus being his older brother. Anyone who is familiar with Greek mythology, however, will immediately point out that the opposite is true: ''Hades'' was the eldest son of Cronus and Rhea, while Zeus was the youngest. The show also claims Hades murdered Cronus for making Zeus heir instead of him, while it is well-known in Greek mythology that this more describes Cronus himself, who overthrew his father and tried to consume all his children to prevent them overthrowing him, before Zeus freed his siblings and overthrew Cronus.

* SupernaturalHotspotTown: Storybrooke is a quaint little port town in Maine. 10-year-old Henry Mills drags his birth mother Emma Swan there, thinking his adoptive mother, the local mayor, Regina Mills, is the Evil Queen from the Snow White fairy tale, and his school teacher Mary Margaret, is the princess herself. Turns out, the boy is right: the town was created when the Evil Queen cast a Dark Curse on their fairy tale world to bring them all to "A Land Without Magic". The 1st season is about Emma dealing with mysterious happenings in the town and how she fits into the overall [[{{Pun}} narrative]]. After the curse is broken at the end of season 1, pawnbroker Mr. Gold (who is Rumplestiltskin) brings magic to town, and the place becomes a veritable magnet to other fairy tale, literature and legendary characters, like Captain Hook, Peter Pan, the Wicked Witch of the West, the Snow Queen, Cruella de Vil, and King Arthur.

* ThreadsOfFate: In season 6, it is revealed that [[spoiler:Rumplestiltskin's mother was once a human woman who turned herself into a fairy, believing it to be a way to avert the prophecy where her son fights a "great evil". When she goes far enough to attempt killing Tigerlily, the mark of the crescent moon appears on her wrist, proving that she's actually the "great evil" all along. To avoid this fate, she took the Shears of Destiny to sever her son's fate, which is seen as a wiggling white thread that emits from his body. She is banished by the Blue Fairy to another realm, thus leading to her becoming known as the Black Fairy while her son eventually becomes the show's main antagonist down the line.]]
