Jacob Grimm

Floating head which hangs around in Volkspark Friedrichshain [ East Berlin ]

Depicted on the right in the image, Jacob Grimm is one of the famous Brothers Grimm, responsible for the recording of famous fairy tales such as Cinderella, The Frog Prince, the Goose-Girl, Hansel and Gretel, Pied Piper, Rapunzel, Little Red Riding Hood, Rumpestilskin, Sleepy Beauty and Snow White. He is the brother of Wilhelm Grimm.

Jacob Grimm now hangs around as a floating head (or a shimmer, or a burning demonic skull) in Volkspark Friedrichshain, which features many statues of fairy tales, which may or may not be walking around after midnight.

Elisabeth-Maria Holstein, under the protective eyes of Tomáš Fiser and Alastar Mac Caoileann, spoke with Jacob about the importance of fairy tales. Jacob referred to her as “a little girl”, seeming glad that she still believed in fairy tales, and Elisabeth-Maria promised to return once “her own story” was finished to tell the completed tale.
