Rumpelstiltskin & The Baby Snatching Best Friend
Tuesday, 31 January, 2023

Dating back some 4,000 years, the story of Rumpelstiltskin is one of the earliest surviving tales in Western literature. The legend is savage in parts and reminds readers that spinning a web of lies may cost you everything. Much like the maiden in our fairy tale, Megan Fieramusca became so caught up in her own deceit, that she was willing to kill in order to get what she wanted-a child that wasn't hers.
