My opinion is that the early scenes with the "ghost-children" are a kind of shamanic test: Firstly, one of the ghost children rolls a ball out of its cave cage and breaks the stone Inuksuk, then looks at Tabitha through the bars. This sets up a "test" to rebuild the Inuksuk, which is an Inuit construction. When Ethan rebuilds the Inuksuk [block puzzle], the ghost children appear to Tabitha [observing from a distance]. When Tabith takes the block puzzle and rebuilds it in front of the "slow walker" cave, she completes the "test," proving that she is one of the "shamans" or "chosen ones" who have been coming to Fromville to try to save the children over many lifetimes. They call her "Angakkuit" ["Shamans!" (plural form of "Angakkuq")], indicating her part in the narrative, as one of a long line of shamans to come to Fromville. My opinion is that this is parallel to the mythological story of "Qiviuq" [AKA, "Kiviuq"] who was an Inuit shaman whose "hero's journey" occurs over the course of many lifetimes/incarnations as different versions of himself. IMO, the use of the Inuit "Inuksuk" is to be used as a Rosetta Stone to understand the narrative, by way of understanding the ghost-children's phrase as being of Inuit origin, just as the Inuksuk is Inuit in origin.
I love this theory Michael and it makes perfect sense in the context of reincarnation on the show. The "anghkooey" word has been so frustrating and this is a great explanation for it. Your points about the inuksuk are spot-on and I had forgotten the role it played in summoning the kids to Tabitha in S2.
You're doing an amazing job ! You're my favorite From content creator 🤍 I hadn't watch your theory video before episode 9 because I wanted to keep mystery for myself. But after episode 9 I came to the same conclusion about reincarnation. Then I watched your theory video and I agree with everything. We must be close to the truth. I can't wait to see your next videos after episode 10 and predictions for season 4 !
Thank you so much for the very kind words! That means the world to me. 🙏❤ I know there are many great FROM creators, more now than ever. I'm new at this with a lot to learn, and positive feedback keeps me going despite my insecurities. I totally get why you'd want to wait and come to your own conclusions - I stopped watching other creators' theory videos and most of their lives for the same reason, especially since I'm making my own content. I'll catch up on them when the season is over. I think we're close to the truth too! The evidence is piling up like crazy. It's exciting seeing the pieces start to come together. 😊
Yes, I think the BIW absolutely could be Jade and Tabitha's child from the OG prior life - I think he was the one kid who got away from the sacrificial ritual. And yeah, I think Christopher snapped because he couldn't handle the full truth of what the BIW told him, which I think was a lot more than just what Victor walked in on and overheard.
Already 1,4k views, like and share friends 🙏 I'm listening again and other videos to before the season finale. Ever thought of making videos about reading short books or reviews? Or meditation scripts? Your voice really calms me down and you would do perfect 🙌
@dietermellaerts Aww thanks! I had never thought of doing that. I was never complimented on my voice until I started this channel! I used to actually hate my voice. I was so surprised people like it now.
Don't be hard on yourself, maybe you think that bc people don't compliment each other easily. Glad more people say, you deserve all the compliments@@JulieBDeepDives
I think all of these people are related by blood/family somehow. Plus when Jade plays that violin what happens? I hope that hotel doesn't pop up out the ground and a bunch of new monsters come out. That would be crazy.
hahaha that would be crazy if the hotel pops up out of the ground. 🤣🤣 My friend and co-host Scarletminded said maybe when Jade plays the song, it will open a portal or something. I think it will open a portal into a dream state or produce a vision that will give them key insight into their origins and what he and Tabitha need to do going forward. Also, ancestry/blood relationships are a possibility for sure. All the many references to trees and roots could be a clue that family trees and bloodlines are key here.
Great job as usual Julie. Agree with everything here. I think Tabitha's soul was also the mother of one of the Anghkooey kids and she was the one who told them the story of hope which created a means for her to save them in the future.
@XIII13X they're spirits that's why they don't age. "They were born in the dark and they were murdered in the dark." They lived in the caves until they were sacrificed. The boy in white is too clean to have been one of those children, so he's definitely something far different.
@@justkim9827 I respect that , but if you focus on the children, you will find their clothes are white, but dirty and torn I think that BIW is one of them, and perhaps he's the only survivor among them It make sense because his main goal is to save the children, but with the help of humans, so he brings people to the village
I agree - I think that she was definitely the mother of one of those kids and she was the one who told them the story. But she was cursed to be reincarnated with the rest of the people there because she failed to save the children.
@@XIII13X They're not human now, but I think they are avatars representing the 7 kids who were sacrificed. Kind of like ghosts, but maybe not actually ghosts. Could be a good entity here manifesting as them to try to lead Tabitha in the right direction. Same with the BIW.
Thank you! 🙏❤ Yeah I think the BIW isn't talking because dropping the whole truth on Christopher at once caused him to snap and it backfired. He probably told Christopher he was reincarnated and led the child sacrifice in his OG life.
@@JulieBDeepDives I suspect that Christopher was getting competing or contradictory info from other inhuman FROMville entities like Sara's Voices or the psychic apparitions we've seen address Boyd (Abby, Khatri) and Jade (Tom) or maybe even his past lives' selves.
Well i'm willing to accept what the shows portraits about the characters, but still those flashbacks are portrayed in third person rather first. Let's watch what the season finale has to offer. I can offer an explanation about those specific flashbacks. could it be that following Ethan's premise about the whole ordeal being a story, that chosen people that step in to fulfill certain roles shares the memories of those that have fallen trying to overcome the challenge. In an story progression, that place seemed to be in loop that is starting to progress since overcoming certain key events, "Boyd destroying the music box", the replacement "nomination" for Martin: "Julie, Randall and Marielle", the "Communication Tower" event, "Tabitha's short scaping fromville". The boy in white acknowledge that something (everything) change.
Yes, they are portrayed in third person but it had to be done that way for us to see Miranda in the flashback getting murdered by Smiley - if it had been POV shots, we wouldn't have known what was going on and who was getting murdered.
@@JulieBDeepDives Yes we could, haven't played first person shooters? I'm just suggesting from an art direction/graphic design perspective that pov matters. Well that's how I interpret the shoots in any given show. I could be mistaken and I'm willing to detract if else.
@@LuisMorenoBlanco POV matters, yes, but I don't see how it could have worked well in this case. If they didn't show Miranda but we only watched her running and getting murdered through her own eyes, how would we know who got murdered? I guess there are ways of course - it could've shown Eloise running after her and calling out to her. But i think they're hiding the truth about what happened to Eloise from us for a reason right now. That's why when Miranda left the cellar, it was just getting close to sunset and by the time she got to the tree, it was the dead of night. We're missing a piece in between that will explain what happened to Eloise.
@@JulieBDeepDives In deed, just remember what Christopher said... "Everything Lies". That place is kinda hellish, can mask memories and confound the sensitive enough even if they think they are good people into do horrible things.
Do you think TBIW could be Jade and Tabitha's child from the OG previous life - one of the OG onkooey children? I think he was. He's not burnt up like the other kids and I think he's the reason the immortality ritual went wrong, and the townsfolk became the night creatures. It may make sense as to why TBIW couldn't convince Christopher of the truth and how to break the cycle. Hopefully it's not too much for Jade and Tabby.
Nice diving! I'm 50/50 on Tabitha as reincarnated Miranda vs her newfound FROMville Chosen One psychometry to channel/access experiences of her predecessors. RE: Bracelet. Based on how Tabitha spoke about it, I think there must be one and only one bracelet, made from Jim's father's boot laces, with a "mistake" in its design-unique, one-of-a-kind. Jim suggests it's similar, but Tab is certain it's the same. I wish Tab hadn't cut Henry off, so he could go on to say that Mir used his father's laces. I haven't worked out the chain of custody across time and space that makes this possible, but I suspect time travel is involved. =) I think BIW has tried to influence key players in each cycle to "save" the Anghkooey gang and he's been getting closer each time making adjustments in response to past failures or mistakes. Last cycle, he chose Chris to go to Bottle Tree, but when Chris refused, Miranda made the attempt on her own. He learned from that & arranged things in this cycle so Tabitha would go instead of Jade-Chris. There are still more pieces to fall into place before the end/success, but there's progress! I think Victor surviving from prev cycle is a critical diff this cycle. If there were more than 5 seasons planned, I'd love to see how this cycle's failure leads to the next one's success (like Kenny's beautiful "thread" dialogue). Maybe some astral time travel will show us how that's true of previous cycles.
Love this comment! Extremely well-thought-out theories and analysis. I agree about the BIW trying to influence the key players in each cycle to try to "save" the kids and is changing tactics each time to get closer to succeeding. The part about the flaw in the bracelet is puzzling. After what we saw with Julie throwing the rope, time travel is possible but I'm not sure how it would work in terms of the bracelet. Maybe Tabitha just make the same mistake in the bracelet that Miranda made... seems like a long shot of course. Also Miranda herself seems to have made 2 bracelets - one that she gave to Henry and one that she had on her wrist in Fromville. Unless in Fromville, Miranda time traveled to the future and found Tabitha's bracelet? So confusing lol
@@JulieBDeepDives Thanks! This show really gets the gears turning, and that frickin' bracelet! It tasks me… I still haven't worked out the bracelet's chain of custody back and forth across time and in and out of FROMville, but I think I've figured out two ways (well, maybe 1.5) to avoid a paradox scenario. They depend on one thing we heard from Henry being an unwitting lie/inaccuracy-Miranda did not make the bracelet, but she did tell Henry she did. So, Tabitha creates it in 2000 or so, and at some point before 1978, it falls into Miranda's possession and, Chosen One that she is, she psychometrically knows to give it to Henry and tell him she made it for him, so that it can be found by Tabitha in 2022, cause her to doubt "Camden", tee up Henry's car to be hit, and land Tab, Henry, and Acosta in an ambulance that gets Treed to FROMville. Circle of life! Or something. =) Anyhow, the paradox workarounds… Option 1. Physical time travel moves the single unique bracelet across time and FROMville space. Someone travels to another era of FROMville the way Boyd did, first via Farway, then via the torch, while wearing the bracelet. While in that other time period, they give away, leave, or lose the bracelet and return to the present. This scenario could be used more than once in the course of the bracelet's lifetime to ensure it is created, given, found, and worn by the people we have seen and heard are associated with it. I believe Boyd's magic Dungeon torch proves this is possible. Conjecture: BIW gets his hands on the bracelet in FROMville at some point before 1978 and throws it from the top of the lighthouse so that it falls out of the hollow in the bottle tree Miranda is decorating so she can find it and give it to Henry. Option 2. Astral time travel "clones" the original bracelet in the past of FROMville. Someone astrally time travels to another era of FROMville, the way Julie did in the ruins, while wearing the bracelet. While in that other time period, they give away, leave, or lose the bracelet and return to the present. The original is on the wrist of the traveler in the present and a "clone" is left behind in FROMville past. NB. This may not work if everything an astral traveler brings w them, even if discarded/separated from them, disappears when they return. I don't think we have any evidence for this phenom yet, unless someone found the lighter Julie had in the tunnels later. As Boyd would say-"I gotta go." Keep diving! =)
@@brianp1810 You're welcome, and yes this show really does get the gears turning! Especially that frickin' bracelet indeed! 😂 I love you you used the word "treed" to Fromville lol. This is some brilliant and creative theory crafting, I absolutely love it! The bracelet is one of the biggest conundrums on the show and these are my favorite theories I've read on it or heard about yet. Well done! 🔥Now that's what I call deep diving! 🤿
Boyd is the wildcard as he was married to reincarnated individual (Abby) and that's why the town cant 'predict' his actions... A reincarnated person happened to marry someone who never loses hope and always believes you can win no matter the odds....
If Miranda was the chosen one to save the children, why did the BIW want Christopher to go to the faraway tree? Why didn't the BIW communicate with Miranda directly?
I think there's a lot more to the story, more to that conversation than just the part that Victor walked in on with the BIW and Christopher. Since the BIW said in E9 that he tried to help by telling Christopher what to do once but now he thinks it's better they figure it out on their own... I think he must've told Christopher he was reincarnated from the ringleader of the child sacrifice. It would've been too much for him to handle. Christopher looked so angry and agitated in the flashback. And my theory is he told Christopher that he'd need to sacrifice himself to end the cycle - by going through the tree, which would lead to his death.
It's not just Miranda - it's all the previous chosen ones. But Tabitha didn't drop acid like Miranda so she can't see all the previous ones like Miranda could.
I believe they’re different iterations of the same archetype. In my theory FROM is a game. Miranda and Tabitha, for example, both represent the MOTHER archetype in the game. They see the memories and experiences of the other (former or future) players in their role, similar to how a Bene Gesserit Revered Mother in ᑐ ᑌ ᑎ ᑕ receives knowledge after drinking the water of life. IMHO of course.
I like that Debbie. Very interesting. 🙂 The memories would have to feel extremely real and painful for Tabitha to react in such a visceral way, and that could be the case even if she isn't literally reincarnated. I think it's undeniable that she's experiencing Miranda's memories, whatever label we put on it. Your theories and ideas are always so thought-provoking. ❤
😮 What if the BIW is an accumulation/collection of all of Thabitha/Miranda/Her past reincarnations's d3ad son's. As in, if Victor or Eathan di3, they'll become part pf BIW? That will explain why the BIW was drawn to both Victor and Ethan, they're all brothers via the shared soul of their reincarnated mothers, and Ethan and Victor are destined to be part of BIW.
I have always seen them as descendants of the original people who sacrificed the children. Cursed to return over and over to try and stop whatever their sacrifice was to.
I don't think so because Abby just died like a year and a half before these events, and Acosta is much older of course. Unless it's some time travel stuff but that would be messy.
@crimnvL Many people are doubting it even now. Or they're confused by it. So I wanted to break out down with all the clues from the start. And I came to this conclusion on my own like I said in the video- I was talking about it in a video over a month ago after Episode 3, weeks before it became so common that everyone was talking about it. I can't say I thought of it a year ago like some people though because I had never seen the show until this year.
So basically Tabitha can be Maranda but she is really herself because they might be in a higher or lower dimension where they both can exist at the same time without being a different person because time does not really exist so from exist at all times and the real world moves at regular pace Just a fan
Yes True she is miranda ...so Miranda has been around town ..all 3 guys in 1 area now henry...jim and jade🤣...anyways after tabitha came back to fromville victor nolonger carries the lunchbox so it was only for that time until tabitha gets it and the address inside 😂...its not like victor new thats why he was having the lunchbox for 40 years.....if miranda is the one who put the musical numbers in bottles why did she run to the tree without a violin to play...and now jade is the one who can play violin tabitha cant...when victor told her what he heard the biw telling christopher why did she run to the tree not knowing what to do when she gets there... my guess is she was gonna enter the tree get to the tower get pushed out like tabitha reach maine and henry was going to get her arrested angry about his kids thinking she has killed them since she will be alone with no explanation as to where she left them ...and for fromville to bring her back like tabitha it would have to wait for when a prison bus is transporting prisoners to maximum security prison thats when the bus was going to see the tree we would have fromville full of convicts and murderers then the monsters where going to learn how life is they would be the ones needing Talismans.... love your videos!!
I will hate it if the twist is reincarnation. Tabitha’s flashback was from the perspective of an observer, someone watching the smiling man attack Miranda. Bit the rules of From are unclear, so you may be correct.
The problem is that if they showed us her murder from Miranda's perspective, we wouldn't be able to see her as viewers so we wouldn't have known who Smiley was murdering - it could just as easily have been Eloise getting murdered. Out of necessity, they needed to show us Miranda. Even if I'm wrong in all my theories and I don't like the answers when they're revealed, I won't have any regrets because I'm loving the journey and the discussion.
@Anghooeyrhymeswithjulie Thanks! I'm glad you didn't hate the reincarnation twist! I thought it was brilliantly executed! What an incredible finale!!!!! 😊
Miranda died 46 years ago in 1978 and the actress who plays Tabitha is 43 years old so the math works fine - she can be Miranda reincarnated. She didn't have to be reborn immediately.
I understand a lot of people wanted that. I personally think this is an awesome concept and I hope it doesn't ruin the show for people. There's a lot more to the story than just this.
My opinion is that the early scenes with the "ghost-children" are a kind of shamanic test:
Firstly, one of the ghost children rolls a ball out of its cave cage and breaks the stone Inuksuk, then looks at Tabitha through the bars. This sets up a "test" to rebuild the Inuksuk, which is an Inuit construction.

Your points about the inuksuk are spot-on and I had forgotten the role it played in summoning the kids to Tabitha in S2.
Tabitha is the reincarnation of Miranda, and the colony girl before that all the way to the Curse they are under. You have got that totally right.

Nice diving! I'm 50/50 on Tabitha as reincarnated Miranda vs her newfound FROMville Chosen One psychometry to channel/access experiences of her predecessors.
RE: Bracelet. Based on how Tabitha spoke about it, I think there must be one and only one bracelet, made from Jim's father's boot laces, with a "mistake" in its design-unique, one-of-a-kind. Jim suggests it's similar, but Tab is certain it's the same. I wish Tab hadn't cut Henry off, so he could go on to say that Mir used his father's laces. I haven't worked out the chain of custody across time and space that makes this possible, but I suspect time travel is involved. =)
I think BIW has tried to influence key players in each cycle to "save" the Anghkooey gang and he's been getting closer each time making adjustments in response to past failures or mistakes. Last cycle, he chose Chris to go to Bottle Tree, but when Chris refused, Miranda made the attempt on her own. He learned from that & arranged things in this cycle so Tabitha would go instead of Jade-Chris. There are still more pieces to fall into place before the end/success, but there's progress! I think Victor surviving from prev cycle is a critical diff this cycle. If there were more than 5 seasons planned, I'd love to see how this cycle's failure leads to the next one's success (like Kenny's beautiful "thread" dialogue). Maybe some astral time travel will show us how that's true of previous cycles.
Love this comment! Extremely well-thought-out theories and analysis. I agree about the BIW trying to influence the key players in each cycle to try to "save" the kids and is changing tactics each time to get closer to succeeding.
The part about the flaw in the bracelet is puzzling. After what we saw with Julie throwing the rope, time travel is possible but I'm not sure how it would work in terms of the bracelet.

@@JulieBDeepDives Thanks! This show really gets the gears turning, and that frickin' bracelet! It tasks me…
I still haven't worked out the bracelet's chain of custody back and forth across time and in and out of FROMville, but I think I've figured out two ways (well, maybe 1.5) to avoid a paradox scenario. They depend on one thing we heard from Henry being an unwitting lie/inaccuracy-Miranda did not make the bracelet, but she did tell Henry she did. So, Tabitha creates it in 2000 or so, and at some point before 1978, it falls into Miranda's possession and, Chosen One that she is, she psychometrically knows to give it to Henry and tell him she made it for him, so that it can be found by Tabitha in 2022, cause her to doubt "Camden", tee up Henry's car to be hit, and land Tab, Henry, and Acosta in an ambulance that gets Treed to FROMville. Circle of life! Or something. =)
Anyhow, the paradox workarounds…
Option 1. Physical time travel moves the single unique bracelet across time and FROMville space. Someone travels to another era of FROMville the way Boyd did, first via Farway, then via the torch, while wearing the bracelet. While in that other time period, they give away, leave, or lose the bracelet and return to the present. This scenario could be used more than once in the course of the bracelet's lifetime to ensure it is created, given, found, and worn by the people we have seen and heard are associated with it. I believe Boyd's magic Dungeon torch proves this is possible.
Conjecture: BIW gets his hands on the bracelet in FROMville at some point before 1978 and throws it from the top of the lighthouse so that it falls out of the hollow in the bottle tree Miranda is decorating so she can find it and give it to Henry.
Option 2. Astral time travel "clones" the original bracelet in the past of FROMville. Someone astrally time travels to another era of FROMville, the way Julie did in the ruins, while wearing the bracelet. While in that other time period, they give away, leave, or lose the bracelet and return to the present. The original is on the wrist of the traveler in the present and a "clone" is left behind in FROMville past. NB. This may not work if everything an astral traveler brings w them, even if discarded/separated from them, disappears when they return. I don't think we have any evidence for this phenom yet, unless someone found the lighter Julie had in the tunnels later.
As Boyd would say-"I gotta go." Keep diving! =)
@@brianp1810 You're welcome, and yes this show really does get the gears turning! Especially that frickin' bracelet indeed! 😂 I love you you used the word "treed" to Fromville lol. This is some brilliant and creative theory crafting, I absolutely love it! The bracelet is one of the biggest conundrums on the show and these are my favorite theories I've read on it or heard about yet. Well done! 🔥Now that's what I call deep diving! 🤿
Boyd is the wildcard as he was married to reincarnated individual (Abby) and that's why the town cant 'predict' his actions...
A reincarnated person happened to marry someone who never loses hope and always believes you can win no matter the odds....
I agree, Abby was reincarnated and Boyd is a wildcard here that the place wasn't prepared or ready to deal with.
Nice!!
I think Tabitha is reliving echoes of the past FROM Miranda
That's a possibility. She just reacted in such a visceral way that it makes me believe she was reliving her own death, the screaming and crying.
If Miranda was the chosen one to save the children, why did the BIW want Christopher to go to the faraway tree? Why didn't the BIW communicate with Miranda directly?
I think there's a lot more to the story, more to that conversation than just the part that Victor walked in on with the BIW and Christopher. Since the BIW said in E9 that he tried to help by telling Christopher what to do once but now he thinks it's better they figure it out on their own... I think he must've told Christopher he was reincarnated from the ringleader of the child sacrifice. It would've been too much for him to handle. Christopher looked so angry and agitated in the flashback. And my theory is he told Christopher that he'd need to sacrifice himself to end the cycle - by going through the tree, which would lead to his death.
Why is Tabitha only reincarnated thru Miranda and no other previous chosen one??
It's not just Miranda - it's all the previous chosen ones. But Tabitha didn't drop acid like Miranda so she can't see all the previous ones like Miranda could.
17:35 also after tabitha hugs victor she runs out just like miranda and her daughter. Tabitha with her daughter. 😮😂😂
Yup, lol it's crazy! What a trippy scene.
I believe they’re different iterations of the same archetype.
In my theory FROM is a game.
Miranda and Tabitha, for example, both represent the MOTHER archetype in the game. They see the memories and experiences of the other (former or future) players in their role, similar to how a Bene Gesserit Revered Mother in ᑐ ᑌ ᑎ ᑕ receives knowledge after drinking the water of life. IMHO of course.
I like that Debbie. Very interesting. 🙂 The memories would have to feel extremely real and painful for Tabitha to react in such a visceral way, and that could be the case even if she isn't literally reincarnated. I think it's undeniable that she's experiencing Miranda's memories, whatever label we put on it. Your theories and ideas are always so thought-provoking. ❤
😮 What if the BIW is an accumulation/collection of all of Thabitha/Miranda/Her past reincarnations's d3ad son's. As in, if Victor or Eathan di3, they'll become part pf BIW? That will explain why the BIW was drawn to both Victor and Ethan, they're all brothers via the shared soul of their reincarnated mothers, and Ethan and Victor are destined to be part of BIW.
Yes. Someone else thinks along the lines similar to me. High five!
This theory would make sense since we can see Tabitha "melding" with Miranda in much the same way.
I have always seen them as descendants of the original people who sacrificed the children. Cursed to return over and over to try and stop whatever their sacrifice was to.
Also do you think Acosta is Abby reincarnated?
I don't think so because Abby just died like a year and a half before these events, and Acosta is much older of course. Unless it's some time travel stuff but that would be messy.
this is the most common theory ive heard it alot of times no offense, but u added alot to it ty
@crimnvL Many people are doubting it even now. Or they're confused by it. So I wanted to break out down with all the clues from the start. And I came to this conclusion on my own like I said in the video- I was talking about it in a video over a month ago after Episode 3, weeks before it became so common that everyone was talking about it.
I can't say I thought of it a year ago like some people though because I had never seen the show until this year.
@@JulieBDeepDivesu added alot more to the theory midway through though i appreciate the work!
So basically Tabitha can be Maranda but she is really herself because they might be in a higher or lower dimension where they both can exist at the same time without being a different person because time does not really exist so from exist at all times and the real world moves at regular pace
Just a fan
i give all creators little help : Tabatha is Victor's sister ;), its not dream its really happened to hear he just wakes memory.
❤❤❤❤
Yes True she is miranda ...so Miranda has been around town ..all 3 guys in 1 area now henry...jim and jade🤣...anyways after tabitha came back to fromville victor nolonger carries the lunchbox so it was only for that time until tabitha gets it and the address inside 😂...its not like victor new thats why he was having the lunchbox for 40 years.....if miranda is the one who put the musical numbers in bottles why did she run to the tree without a violin to play...and now jade is the one who can play violin tabitha cant...when victor told her what he heard the biw telling christopher why did she run to the tree not knowing what to do when she gets there... my guess is she was gonna enter the tree get to the tower get pushed out like tabitha reach maine and henry was going to get her arrested angry about his kids thinking she has killed them since she will be alone with no explanation as to where she left them ...and for fromville to bring her back like tabitha it would have to wait for when a prison bus is transporting prisoners to maximum security prison thats when the bus was going to see the tree we would have fromville full of convicts and murderers then the monsters where going to learn how life is they would be the ones needing Talismans.... love your videos!!
I will hate it if the twist is reincarnation. Tabitha’s flashback was from the perspective of an observer, someone watching the smiling man attack Miranda. Bit the rules of From are unclear, so you may be correct.
The problem is that if they showed us her murder from Miranda's perspective, we wouldn't be able to see her as viewers so we wouldn't have known who Smiley was murdering - it could just as easily have been Eloise getting murdered. Out of necessity, they needed to show us Miranda.
Even if I'm wrong in all my theories and I don't like the answers when they're revealed, I won't have any regrets because I'm loving the journey and the discussion.
@JulieBDeepDives of course! Its a great show to discuss
@@JulieBDeepDives You were spot on! I really enjoyed the finale and thought they used the reincornation very organically.
@Anghooeyrhymeswithjulie Thanks! I'm glad you didn't hate the reincarnation twist! I thought it was brilliantly executed! What an incredible finale!!!!! 😊
Can Kimono lady be Miranda?
I don't think so but you never know, with reincarnation it wouldn't matter what race she is. Kimono lady seems evil though, which Miranda wasn't.
You know in all honesty I could be wrong but I don't think reincarnation is the answer to me it just looks like she was having a vision.
Nope-no reincarnation-Tabitha would have to be 70’s .
Miranda died 46 years ago in 1978 and the actress who plays Tabitha is 43 years old so the math works fine - she can be Miranda reincarnated. She didn't have to be reborn immediately.
Not liking the reincarnation thing at all. Was hoping she would have turned out to be Victors sister.
I understand a lot of people wanted that. I personally think this is an awesome concept and I hope it doesn't ruin the show for people. There's a lot more to the story than just this.
@ I agree!
