      Man in Yellow is Young Martin. That's how he knows everyone's name and that's why he wants to stop them from progressing because it causes his capture. It'd explain why his blood could kill a monster if he's from the same force of evil or just a stronger evil. I think Julie was story walking and runs into him (maybe they hear the song?) She runs away from the MIY through the story and finds current Jim, he follows her and finds Jim as well, accidently causing the very thing she's trying to stop.

      So the man in yellolw is Hastur the king of yellow. , if you’ve ever read The King in Yellow by Robert W. Chambers, you know the themes line up. In the book, there’s a cursed play that drives people mad, much like the town traps and breaks its inhabitants. The Man in Yellow could be Hastur’s way of keeping the town’s residents in a perpetual state of torment.
      Hastur is often associated with madness, despair, and psychological torment. By trapping people in an inescapable, incomprehensible situation like the town in From, he creates a perfect environment to cultivate these emotions. Every broken spirit, every act of hopelessness, and every descent into madness could “feed” Hastur in some way-whether metaphorically or literally.

      I don't believe he's the one in charge of from but I do believe he is a higher rank than the creatures from the tunnel and he's the one that enforces the rules of what you're supposed to do and what you're not supposed to do I think that's what he is.

  • @Jeff-sf6cl
    @Jeff-sf6cl Місяць тому +171

    Something future Julie says to Jim is a potential clue. She tells Jim to run to town. The idea that Jim would be safe in town or that he can escape the man in yellow by running is interesting in the context of what we know of the creatures. They seem to be weaker and more limited versions of the man in yellow. It could be that he is the demon who tempted the townspeople to sacrifice the children. Or, it could be that the man in yellow was the one who did the killing of the children and is the high priest/shaman of the original village and thus he became the right hand to the demon. In either case, he clearly is more than human and we have evidence to suggest he does not age.
    One more interesting takeaway is the passage of time in the town. They seemed to be in a protracted fall season before the introduction of Jade and Tabitha. Victor had been around for decades and I seem to remember that he mentioned things had never changed like this before. The resumption of the passage of time seems to have an effect on the supernatural beings like the boy in white. The tattering of the clothes and the aging of the man in yellow could be a function of the resumption of time. This helps to explain why the man in yellow is angered by the digging of the hole and Jade/Tabitha regaining their prior lives memories. If the immortality depends on stagnation, then the passage of time is a threat to the evils survival.
    P.S does anyone else think that if they save the children then the end of the series will essentially be the towns people living the lives they would have lived but for the tree in the road? I could see Boyd with Abbie and Ellis on the boat. Thomas might not have died or if he does die then the family is in the RV but never gets pulled off road. Donna gets her sister back, and all the people who died in Fromsville return to life (Kenny’s parents, Sarah’s brother, the people who died on the bus, ect..)

    Everything so far has loosely tied into a "story." It is safe to assume Julie is a story walker. With that, the towns people find Jim dead but don't know how or when he died. That's why Julie comes back from the future to try to find how and when her Dad dies. That's why she said "I think this is where it happens." She also looks noticeably surprised by the man in yellow which makes me think he doesn't show up again for the town and is only in this one scene/part.

      I don't think that's the case. When Boyd had to give blood to Ellis for surgery,he got rid of the worms inside of him by killing smiley. Boyd's blood was pure after that. Another thing is that the monsters sacrificed their own children in the past so that they could live forever. Meaning, they had to be revived somehow, and what the series shows is that they get revived by a real person being pregnant. I don't know exactly why it had to be Fatima, maybe it's going to be explained in season 4, but if I had to guess, I'd say the person to give birth is a random woman. Fatima never had voices in her head or anything like that, and I'd say that would be the only reason a person can get chosen for the pregnancy

    I think there are 4 possibilities:
    1. He's a new entity that has some type of seniority over the monsters we have seen so far.
    2. He's a Randall from the future. There is a reason why the Monsters didn't kill Randall. Maybe it's because he's the Man in Yellow. And I think the Cicada's are either a symbol or a clue.
    3. He's actually the Boy in White, but aged up. As white clothes get older, they turn yellow. If you actually look at his yellow clothes, they look aged and worn.
    4. Victor is the MIY. Could a young boy survive all by himself alone for that many years, even if the BIY was with him? And it's convenient that Victor has lost so many memories. It could be all an elaborate game by Victor/MIY
    Of the 3, I think Randall is the most likely. Ethan being the Man in Yellow is very interesting. He sure seems to know stuff from out of nowhere (like that Julie is a Story-teller). If Julie can time travel, then he should be likely able to as well, so the MIY might an older version of him.

    I think the melody might be what allowed the MIY to day walk. Also think it might allow the regular monsters to daywalk in that specific area too, which, if true, could explain the massacre when victor was a kid. Imagine everyone just going about their day during daylight, and the monsters show up out of nowhere, when they’re usually only out at night. Maybe that won’t happen this time around because Jim thought to take the precaution of playing it out in the woods instead of in town. There has to be a reason why Miranda was so secretive about the melody, putting the notes in code etc. It could very well be because it’s capable of evil as well as good…..the price for being able to see the children and remembering when they hear the melody could be the monsters temporarily being able to come out during the day.

  • @MEDVE1978
    @MEDVE1978 Місяць тому +1

    When the characters arrive to From town it is autumn. We have Victors flashbacks from the time of the massacre which also suggests autumn. The massacre is timed closely to the date Miranda painted the pictures, so the painting about the man in yellow, on which he has dark hair and is younger. Now it is winter in From town and also the man in yellow has aged, has rotten teeth and grey hair.
    Obviously the man in yellow is a pretty big problem because he walks in the daylight. From a narrative standpoint that usually should make him not a character that stays in the town or is a regular threat. Because he is too powerful, he would easily kill the townspeople. So the closest explanations seem: 1. He is a time walker just like Julie, only with more power. 2. He just manifested himself because he was summoned by the music, just like the children. Knowledge comes with a price, ying and yang. This may be the price Tabhita / Jade could summon the children and discover the reincarnation theory. Future Julie said that she thinks this could be where it happens before she sees the man in yellow. So Julie did not know how his father was killed then and there, maybe she did not know the perpetrator either. Although her being scared at the sight of the man in yellow implies that she knows that he is evil and dangerous. But there is a good chance that the man in yellow won't go directly to the town.

    I believe this place is hell. All this false sense of hope, just to end in failure. “Abandon all hope, ye who enter here.” I don’t know, I’m fucking high. Got work in 5hrs. 😂

      Yeah I have that same problem. One thing that helps are alot of shows have wikis so reading the articles on the characters and episodes helps. From has one but when I looked at it a month or 2 ago it wasn't very complete as I recall but that might have changed.

    I don't get the whole "why Acosta hasn't changed out of her uniform" meme. Im sure she changes out of it when she sleeps. Then she puts it back on. Maybe she's trying to cling on to her life before getting stuck in town.

      Her character is "angry cop". She has zero personality traits outside of that. The writers think you will forget who she is if she's not always dressed like "angry cop"

    Could it be possible that the man in yellow used to be young but since things have been changing in Fromland, he somehow got older? Just like the boy in white?

    He HAS to be a form of Mabuse. Why would the showrunners put little hints in, such as the stretcher in the ambulance with a "Mabuse" logo, and the paintings in Henry's basement that his wife painted of the Man in Yellow, along with paintings of what resembles Mabuse in folklore?
    The very description of Mabuse is SO close to what is happening in From it's ridiculous to ignore.

    Is Ethan dead? Has that child been taken as a sacrifice to resurrect this man in yellow.
    Remember it was Ethan who accompanied Julie to the ruins according to their conversation in the Diner. Only Julie came running back. Where is Ethan?

    • @GrimmShadowsII
      @GrimmShadowsII Місяць тому +1

      If you're talking about when Julie tried to save her father that's a different Julie than the one in the diner, most likely one from the future, Julie and Ethan are most likely still in the diner.

    We should note that there have been changes in the "cycle" - just like what the Boy in White said to Viktor. Tabitha and Jade are learning by themselves, and that Boy might have seen the "progress" when letting things play out.

    Theory: man in yellow is Randal from the future. If that drawing is Randal with the scar, and since its confirmed that julie can time travel.... we can assume randal can time travel too and they could have both time travelled from different futures
