Yes, they wrote original stories. The Grimm Brothers' collection of fairy tales was not just a simple transcription of existing folk tales. They had a significant role in shaping the stories. They might have combined elements from different tales, or they could have introduced new moral lessons or cultural interpretations. This means that even though the basis of the stories might have come from traditional sources, the final form in which they presented the tales had elements of originality, making their versions distinct and, in a sense, original stories.
