The "lonely tower" really looks like Beacon, and Salem seems a hell of a lot like Sleeping Beauty. Does that make Ozpin the Prince, and how darkly are they going to twist the traditional tale? In one of the older versions the prince basically rapes her while she's in her cursed sleep, she gives birth while still out cold, and she awakens when one of the children sucks the sting (in that version a piece of flax) from her finger.

I seriously doubt they're going to take that angle; and it can't get much darker.

That said, probably not Sleeping Beauty to begin with.
