Squid Ink

Squid Ink is a magical item on ABC's Once Upon a Time.

Description[]

As its name suggests, Squid Ink is harvested by the Giant Squid that resides in Neverland, said only to be able to be obtained by either a mermaid or Rumplestiltskin. It has the ability to magically freeze anyone who comes into contact with it for a while. It can also be used to disintegrate things as strong as metal, and can be used to trigger memories under the Dark Curse.

Trivia[]

  • Rumplestiltskin wrote Emma's name on a piece of parchment using Squid Ink repeatedly, so that his memories would return to him in Storybrooke when he heard Emma's name.
  • It is possible that Cora's spellbook is written in Squid Ink.
