“Rumpelstiltskin” by the Brothers Grimm.
Once upon a time there was a miller. He was a poor man. Miller had a daughter. She was beautiful girl.
Miller said to the king that his daughter can spin straw into gold.
The next night, the miller’s daughter was to turn the straw into gold in the castle. She couldn’t do it.
Suddenly the girl saw a creature who looked like an imp in the room. He took the necklace from her and spun gold out of straw.
The king asked miller’s daughter once more to make gold out of straw during the night. This time the creature took the ring from her.
For the third time, the king asked the girl to spin gold from straw and decided to marry her.
The creature did all and asked for her future child.
When the queen gave birth to a child, she didn’t want to give it up. Then the creature offered to guess his name within three days.
The Queen sent messengers to find out his name. One of them said his name was Rumpelstiltskin.
The creature was so evil when the queen called his name that he tore himself up in anger.
