I think of the curse as multilayered:

--Time Freezing of all Realms

-- Dark Curse (whatever you wish for)

--Assimilation into world (What updates Storybrooke, makes it all modern and whatnot)

Other things can be added or taken away.

Bae escaped before the curse was casted, I assumed. Ingrid escape the first curse as well although she only wanted to find Emma. Then there's everyone in Arendelle frozen as solid ice for thirty years.
