“From” Season 3 Finale Shatters Reality: Time Loops, Ancient Secrets, and a Shocking Death
In a mind-bending season finale that left viewers reeling, MGM+’s horror series “From” delivered answers to long-standing mysteries while opening doors to even darker questions.
The episode, titled “Revelations: Chapter Two,” which aired on November 24, 2024, fundamentally changed everything we thought we knew about this mysterious town and its residents.
The Truth About Tabitha and Jade: A Time-Spanning Mystery
The biggest revelation centers around Tabitha Matthews and Jade Herrera, who discovered they’ve been trapped in a centuries-old cycle of reincarnation.
Their previous incarnations as Miranda and Christopher weren’t just coincidental similarities – they were literally the same souls, returning again and again in different forms. This shocking truth came to light when they finally understood that “anghkooey,” the haunting word repeated by ghostly children, simply means “remember.”
Their connection runs deeper than anyone imagined. The pair shared a tragic past as parents whose daughter was among the children sacrificed in the town’s dark origins. This explains Tabitha’s inexplicable bond with Victor, who was Miranda’s son in a previous life, and Jade’s disturbing visions that have plagued him since arrival.
A Monster’s Rebirth and Dark Origins
In a horrifying turn of events, Fatima gave birth to something impossible – the resurrection of Smiley, a monster Boyd had previously killed. This twisted birth revealed the true nature of the town’s monsters: they were once people who sacrificed their own children in exchange for eternal life. Their immortality comes with a terrible price, as they’re now trapped in monstrous forms, unable to truly die.
Time Travel and Tragedy
The finale’s most shocking moment came when future Julie emerged from the woods, desperately trying to prevent her father’s death. Despite her time-traveling abilities, she was forced to watch helplessly as the Man in Yellow brutally killed Jim Matthews.
His chilling words, “Your wife shouldn’t have dug that hole,” connected back to warnings from season one, proving this mysterious figure has been pulling strings all along.
The Price of Knowledge
The introduction of the Man in Yellow raises the stakes dramatically. First glimpsed in one of Miranda’s paintings, this sinister figure seems to be the mastermind behind the town’s curse. His emergence and violent action against Jim suggests Tabitha and Jade’s discoveries pose a real threat to whatever dark power controls the town.
Boyd and Sara’s Dark Choices
The episode also forced Boyd Stevens and Sara Myers to confront their moral limits. In their desperate attempt to save Fatima, they tortured Elgin for information. Sara’s return to violence, removing Elgin’s eye, showed how far these characters will go to protect their loved ones.
Looking Ahead
With season 4 already confirmed, “From” continues to masterfully balance answers with new mysteries. The revelation about Tabitha and Jade’s ancient connection to the town opens possibilities for finally breaking the cycle. However, the Man in Yellow’s violent emergence suggests any attempt to change the town’s nature will come at a terrible cost.
Questions remain: How many times have Tabitha and Jade returned? What’s the significance of the recurring numbers four, seven, and eleven? And perhaps most importantly, can Julie’s time-traveling abilities somehow undo her father’s death, or is Jim’s demise truly a fixed point in time?
One thing is certain – “From” has evolved from a simple horror story into a complex meditation on time, memory, and the price of immortality. As we await season 4, viewers are left to ponder whether breaking free from this cursed town’s cycle is possible, and what sacrifices it might require.
