Disclaimer: This is not a troll post at all. This is information that might explain who The Crooked Man is.

Okay a few nights ago there was an episode on Sherlock Holmes called The Crooked Man. The Crooked Man explained to Holmes that he was normally a human but due to his friend doing an experiment on him he turned into this beast like creature. He was also married. So could The Crooked Man be another beast like Bigby? We all know The Crooked Man is using a glamour so yea his real form is the beast like form. Sherlock Holmes has plenty of episodes dealing with Fairy Tales, crime, fantasy, etc. When this episode first came on my first reaction was, WTF?!? could this be The Crooked Man from TWAU?

Oh The Crooked Man in the episode is a good guy, so I'm guessing he'll be a good guy in TWAU too. The Crooked Man might know possible suspects and leads.

So yea The Crooked Man is glamoured to look like the man we see on Wiki and episode 3, but his true form is a beast like creature. Could this explain a sheep in wolf's clothing?

    It`s possible but i doubt that he will be a good guy. He destroys people`s lives if they can`t pay him back.

    Hmm, i don't think i have any proof to diss your theory, and if i did, i wouldn't, but i just have a feeling he's for real.

    the crooked man doesn't wear glamour and he comes from an old nursery rhyme

    He could very well be from both, like Bigby, Jack and other fables are from various stories.

    Well it sounds like he's talking about a tv show and fables aren't from tv shows just Storys nursery rhymes etc

    Probably Sir Arthur Conan Doyle inspired himself from the nursery rhyme about the name of the character.

    I don't know. The way things are going, I find it more plausible that he's just the epitome of a natural-born crime lord. More of a businessman than any sort of fighter, which is why he needs BM around. Most likely, he'll be the kind of "villain" to see himself as a necessary evil and a natural element in society. Not cruel or insane or the source of evil in the world, just... crooked. We'll likely get some more or less compelling reason to leave him and his business intact, and then the choice to either do that or tear it all down, come what may. But in that case we'll most likely be fighting BM, not a hulked-out Crooked Man.

    And just to clarify, Fables HAS incorporated some relevant tropes from popular culture, so it's not much of a stretch that TWAU might be influenced by literary and television portrayals too. The franchise tends to be a little more original about it than just borrowing whole concepts and throwing them in, though.

    Just because something happened in a completely unrelated series doesn't necessarily mean it has to happen the exact same way in here.

    I think you`re right.
