The attraction to negativity and the general motive to screw with humanity leads me to think that Grimm may be the product of human's negativity or perhaps a manifestation of dead aura/souls? Given RWBY's emphasis on aura and (simple) souls, I think this seems plausible." I aggree

In the thread for World of Remnent Dust, I mentioned that the narator's statement about how mankind doesn't fully understand how dust works or how it will change the world, I postulated that the Grim may be the products of dust (or perhaps a particular variant) reacting to the  subconscious aura of Humanity  and creates the Grim from our Id(a part of our subconsious), and our darkest emotions, thoughts, and primal desires.

I believe that if the Grim aren't weapons that were forged by a long forgotton civilization, then they are the manifestation of mankind's fear, hatread, and sorrow.
