After she’s pushed out of the lighthouse and transported back to the real world in Camden, Maine inFromseason 2’s ending, Tabitha unexpectedly returns to the town in the final moments season 3, episode 3. Since then, she’s discovered some terrifying truths about her purpose in this town and deeper connection to other residents, seemingly based onTabitha being chosen to saveFrom’s trapped children.
ThroughoutFromseason 3,Tabitha has learned that she shares several similarities with Victor’s deceased mother, Miranda, who had visions about the town long before becoming trapped there. For instance,Tabitha’s bracelet for Jimmirrors the one that Miranda made for Henry, both couples having a strong preference for Joni Mitchell’s song “Blue,” both have a son and daughter, and Tabitha and Miranda were both plagued by visions ofFrom’s children uttering the word “Anghkooey.” Now,Fromseason 3, episode 6’s ending introduces yet another shocking connection between Tabitha, Miranda, and the town.
Tabitha Saw The Wooden Statues & Painted Rocks As A Kid
After trying to figure out what the numbers in the tree’s bottles mean, Tabitha becomes startled when she sees Jade’s drawing ofFrom’s statues from the woods. The sight of the totem immediately gives Tabitha flashbacks of a recurring nightmare that she would have as a child, which included herwalking to the abandoned camp by the lake, nearing the three red stones, and screaming when she saw the carved statues. Tragically, Tabitha realizes that this place has been haunting her for almost her entire life.
From Season 3: 7 Callbacks & Returning Figures In Victor’s Mother’s Paintings
In From season 3, episode 2, Henry shows Tabitha the paintings that Victor’s mother made of the Township and its various inhabitants and landmarks.
This is thesecond time that someone trapped in town is known to have seen visions of the town prior to arriving, with the first being Victor’s mother, Miranda. However, her husband Henry revealed that Miranda began having visions of the town on his 35th birthday, as the two took LSD at the tree where she would later make one ofFrom’s bottle treesas an art installation. Tabitha’s nightmares of the town started at a far younger age, and would have begun after Miranda, Victor, and Eloise had already arrived there.
What Tabitha’s Childhood Nightmares Mean For Her Connection To The Town
Tabitha Was Chosen Shortly After Miranda Died
It’s still unclear who was around inFrom’s town prior to Victor’s family, but it seems as if it could reach as far back as the 1860s, given Jade has visions of a Civil War soldier there. If people have been trapped there for that long, then it seemspossible that the town’s forces call upon a new “chosen” person with each generation. There may have been a different person who was called to rescue the children from the tower before Miranda, with young Tabitha perhaps randomly becoming the next chosen one after Miranda’s death.
Victor has been trapped in the town since around the early 1980s, with Tabitha’s first nightmares about the location seemingly starting shortly after.
Tabitha’s nightmares also reiterate thatthere was nothing random about the Matthews family becoming trapped in town. What is still a mystery, however, is why the town chose to finally trap them at the exact time they did, though it likely has to do with the recentdeath of Tabitha and Jim’s son, Thomas. Furthermore, with Tabitha’s childhood nightmares being located at the abandoned camp by the lake, her visions may be able to explain the real purpose ofFrom’s wooden totems and what happened to the community who once lived there.
