After that there's not much they can do with the show. Well, maybe that's their plan (I doubt it so very much). We don't know how much of an arc it'll be. Chances are they won't do a consistently long arc into the Underwolrd and stuff. The spirit of the dead probably don't stick around for long, or else Rumple and Regina would be swarmed why their victims and so on.

We'll have to wait for more info before we cast judgement on the arc. Depending if anyone actually dies it could be an arc of just character development, which I believe is sort of too late because unless the Darkness is not destroyed this may seem like a sideways arc.
