@Ark: This theory....could probably explain where these Grimm Pools come from. But it misses a key question: What are those pools?

You say that it "became apparent" that the Horse's mane is basically some negative Aura made out of negativity. But then you say it basically condenses into the pools, like vapor.

Except that gases, including Vapor, literally move everywhere they can. So if that thing was Vapor, the Nuckelavee would be a living smoke signal that could be sighted from miles away from the sheer amount of "black vapor" coming out of it's head, which would not be small considering it has spent years, at least a decade, hunting villages and anihilating them.

So it cannot be simply "Evil Vapor", probably not even a Gas. And thus nothing says it would "condense into pools where Grimm are born from". Especially when we have Grimm like the Dragon, the only Grimm that has birthed Grimm out of nowhere on-screen, and it did so via literal sweating, not condensation of some gas.

To return to what I meant in the first sentence, this feels like the Panspermia theory: Panspermia consists of the idea that meteors carry cells and such, into the planetary bodies they crash into. It explains how life arrived in X, but it does not explain where life came from, it simply moves the question.

Same here: This explains at least 1 way for how the Grimm pools are made, but it does not explain what they are in a concrete manner.

It's not even that "the liquid turns into a Grimm", since like we saw in V4E1, the Beowulf rised out of the pool, instead of the pool changing shape into the Beowulf. As if the pool was much deeper than it looked.....or as if it was a portal of some sort.
