In some way I would want to see it. Maybe an allusion to it. With all the things happening to the kids that it would also happen to certain characters in Once. Similar to how they did the Tin-Man, Scarecrow and Lion thing with Oz.

I think it could work this way the Willy Wonka is the villain with some of his Oompa Loompa henchmen. And that a team of five goes out to battle him, four gets into a similar situation as the kids and eventually Henry (or Emma) manages to defeat Wonka.

But something like that may be better for another season so that they also properly can introduce the Willy Wonka universe to Once. Because I don't see it happening now. It was just an idea, but I was thinking maybe Wonka could have discover Ompa land and enslaved it, forcing the Oompa-Lompas into slavery and had them build a factory which combined magic with technology, later Wonka needed this special child for this magic candy and sent out golden tickets that could transport kids to see his world, many kids found the tickets, but they all failed his tests and gave into temptation, so he turned them all into candy, then Charlie found the ticket and passed Wonka's tests, but I'm not sure what should happen after that, he could escape or something, I'm not sure, I also thought that maybe Willy Wonka could have been romantically involved with the Blind Witch who taught him her candy making secrets or vice versa
