Once upon a time …
This is perhaps the most classic and well-known opening to a story in English. The stock phrase is usually used for fairy or folk tales and particularly tales for children. Many different languages use a similar story-starting phrase for such tales. Other variations include:
There was once …
There once lived …
A long time ago …
Long long ago …
There was a time when …
Classic tales also tend to have similar ending, for example:
And they all lived happily ever after.
