Elizabeth Smart

On the way home from work this idea popped into my head. I have no idea why because I wasn't thinking of the Elizabeth Smart case, or anything. But such is the mind of Blogdor.

Similarities between the Elizabeth Smart story and Rumplestiltskin:

Both involve a strange little man with a beard

Both strange little men have uncommon names: Rumplestiltskin and Emmanuel

The daughter in Rumplestiltskin worked a spinning wheel. Elizabeth Smart played a harp.

In Rumplestiltskin, the strange little man worked for the daughter turning straw into gold so she could improve her living quarters (get out of prison alive).

In the Elizabeth Smart story, the strange little man worked on the Smart family house improving their living quarters.

In both stories the strange little man returned years later to take the first born child of the person he had helped.

Both children were saved when a child told the parent the name of the strange little man. In Rumplestiltskin a village boy finds out Rumplestilskin's name. In the Elizabeth Smart story, Elizabeth's younger sister remembered Emmanuel's name months after the kidnapping, which led to his eventual arrest.
