RUMPELSTILSKIN

Exposition
o A miller had a beautiful daughter (Lisa) and lied to the King that
she could turn straw into gold.

Rising action
o The King demanded Lisa to spin the straw into gold within three
days.
o If Lisa could not fulfill the Kings wishes, her head would be cut off.
o A strange man appeared suddenly and offered Lisa a help.
o In return, the strange man demanded a reward.
o The first two nights, Lisa rewarded him by giving her necklace and
ring.
o The King became so greedy and wanted more gold.
o The King would make Lisa his queen if she could turn all the straw
into gold or else he would cut off her head.
o The strange man appeared again on the third night but Lisa had
nothing to reward him.
o Then, the strange man spun the straw into gold and for a promise
he would have Lisas first-born child after she became a queen.

Climax
o A year after, the King and Lisa had a baby son.
o The strange man returned to claim his reward.
o The queen refused to give her baby.
o The strange man got so angry and gave the queen three days to
guess his name.
o Lisas parents followed the strange man into the woods and
discovered his real name.
o On the final day, the strange man returned and asked the queen to
guess his name.
o Finally, the queen mentioned his name Rumpelstiltskin.

Falling action
o Rumpelstiltskin was so angry and stamped the floor so hard.
o Then, he vanished in a puff of smoke.

Resolution

Lisas father learnt his lesson and he promised to her that

he would never boast again.
