I've seen a lot of theories and stories about how to explain what's happening in the city, and each theory has been tried to be refuted. So, I have a question: what ending would you prefer so that you won't be disappointed? Let's discuss it together.
>!In Episode 5 of Season 1, while talking to the bartender, Jade says: "I created a program for a quantum computer that could potentially..." but then cuts himself off. He never explains what his program is actually capable of. He also never says who he sold it to. The military? Or someone connected to St. Anthony Hospital, where Tabitha ends up first, and later Henry? Take a look at the hospital's logo.
I believe Jade developed a unique quantum algorithm or program capable of altering reality—for example, by materializing people's fears or fantasies. In that same episode, he also mentions the Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen paradox. As I understand it, this paradox describes a phenomenon in which objects remain mysteriously connected across great distances (and possibly even across time).That would be an amazing twist, in my opinion. Jade created this program and decided to test it on himself. Maybe both he and Tabitha are employees—or test subjects. The fact that Tabitha doesn't remember while Jade does could simply be explained by different settings they selected before entering the program.
I've mentioned this in another thread. The way Jade arrived and the way Sofia arrived both feel almost algorithmic. Jade's companion jumped out of the car and immediately ran away without even checking on his friend—as if Jade were a complete stranger. Then, before he even has a chance to really meet Jade, Sara kills Toby because the voices told her to. Afterward, she also reaches into his mouth and almost certainly takes one of his teeth. Why didn't "they" want Toby and Jade to meet in this reality? Maybe Jade himself doesn't remember—or doesn't realize—that they were testing his invention. Perhaps this is another reality, or something like a computer simulation.
That would also make Tabitha's words—that monsters don't exist and Norman is alive—make sense. Maybe they're all actually lying in comas at the hospital. That would explain why both Tabitha and Victor's father see the exact same hospital. Everyone is alive but connected to a simulation. It would also make the Man in Yellow's words about everything being based on rituals (or the program) make sense. And Ethan, as well as Jade himself, repeatedly say that this is a game.!<
Hello! There are so many questions and so few answers: >!What was the spider? Where did the other two dolls go that weren't killed? Why was Fatima making a Golem?
Why does the MIY want to kill Ethan with Sarah's hands and
Victor with Henry's hands? Who is the lady in the kimono? What was the monster that said "Remember me?" to Julie in Season 1? Where did the dogs go and where did they come from? Why doesn't Boyd go to the ruins like Julie?
Why don't the monsters kill Boyd? Randall?
Why didn't anyone notice Sofia cutting the rope in public? Who knows where the answers to these questions are in episode 1? Who grabbed Boyd at Abby's grave? Write your questions, let's discuss them together here<!
After the Man in Yellow warned her that freeing the bones would unleash something evil, Tabitha may have spent every cycle trying to stop Jade from carrying out his plan.
If Jade’s destiny is to pull the tree out by its roots, then Tabitha’s destiny could be to prevent it from happening at any cost — even if that means killing him over and over again in every reincarnation.
That would explain why their story keeps repeating and why they always seem to be on opposite sides of the same mystery. 🫠
At first glance, they seem completely different. But the deeper the story goes, the more connections appear.
Both are strongly linked to pregnancy, birth, children, and the cycle of life and death in Fromville. The Woman in the Kimono appeared around some of Fatima’s most important moments, and after Fatima’s mysterious pregnancy and Smiley’s return, that connection became even harder to ignore.
What if the Woman in the Kimono isn’t just haunting Fatima?
What if she’s a future version of Fatima after years—or even centuries—trapped in a different cycle of Fromville?
We’ve already seen evidence that time doesn’t work normally in this place. Characters experience visions from different eras, and some seem connected across timelines. If Fromville operates in repeating cycles, Fatima could eventually become the very entity that once guided, manipulated, or watched her.
The similarities in their dark hair, their connection to children, and their role in supernatural births may not be a coincidence.
Maybe Fatima isn’t seeing the Woman in the Kimono.
Maybe she’s seeing herself.
What do you think? Is there a real connection, or are we looking at two completely different entities?
If you’ve watched FROM long enough, you’ve probably heard every one of these at least ten times. 😅 ✔️ “We need to talk.” ✔️ “Are you okay?” ✔️ “You have to trust me.” ✔️ “I’ll explain everything.” ❌ Proceeds to explain absolutely nothing. How many squares can you check off? Did I miss any classic FROM lines that deserve a spot on the bingo card? 👀
I have a suspicion that Acosta will eventually find an old photograph showing Sophia with her family many years ago.
That discovery could make everyone suspect that Sophia is actually the Man in Yellow. The town might even try to kill her using a talisman, believing she’s the monster in disguise.
But the talisman won’t work on her, proving she’s not what they think she is.
That cliffhanger could be exactly how Season 4 ends.
One detail I haven’t seen discussed much is how similar these two women look.
The woman Henry sees in the hospital and the young woman Boyd encounters share several noticeable features: pale skin, dark hair pulled back, a slender face, and a very similar overall appearance.
This could be nothing more than a visual coincidence. But in From, the writers often leave subtle clues in plain sight, and repeated imagery tends to matter.
Could they be connected somehow? The same person at different ages? Different manifestations of the same entity? Or are the similarities meant to point us toward a larger mystery we haven’t figured out yet?
At the moment, there isn’t enough evidence to draw a firm conclusion, but the resemblance is striking enough that it feels intentional rather than accidental.
What do you think?
Did it also seem to you that this is Schwarzenegger's grandmother?
The more I rewatch From, the more it feels like the writers have been leaving clues in plain sight from the very beginning.
One of the most interesting connections involves the cave drawing and the seven Anghkooey children.
On the cave wall, we can see 7 figures arranged around a central symbol. Later, we see 7 children lying in a circle around the same symbol formed by the tree roots above them.
That feels far too specific to be a coincidence.
There are other intriguing details as well:
• The root symbol keeps appearing in Jade’s visions.
• The same symbol is directly connected to the Anghkooey children.
• Symbols found on the cave walls resemble markings seen on the stones.
• The Faraway Trees, roots, and portals may all be part of the same system.
• The numbers 4, 7, and 8 appear repeatedly throughout the series.
• The dates in the lighthouse may point to recurring cycles stretching across centuries.
To me, the strongest clue is the connection between:
7 figures in the cave drawing → 7 Anghkooey children → the root symbol.
It seems increasingly likely that the mystery of the town is directly tied to whatever happened to those children long ago.
The real question is whether these drawings are simply recording past events—or whether they are actually showing the way to break the cycle.
What do you think? Are these intentional clues from the writers, or are we connecting dots that were never meant to be connected?
One more day until a new episode of #FROM on #MGMplus. Here’s your first look at what’s to come….
About bottle trees:
The most popular theories are:
A drawing of Fatima and Boyd's son from the series' screensaver, with a bloody hand on the left. What does this mean? Fatima and Boyd's son look like Adam and Eve
Who discussed Julie's hairstyle, why doesn't anyone discuss Christie's hairstyle?
