Who Is The MAN IN YELLOW - FROM Season 3

[@ThinkStory]

So... who is he? Check out my other FROM videos here: kzbin.info/aero/PLY9KJ1cFVs7gQJ_cXCUJfSWrpd4uksXuZ

[@MagnusGalactusOG]

He's Freddy Krueger controlling a Nightmare

[@captcardwell3398]

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.

[@shonenhikada9254]

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.

[@Thewalternut]

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.

[@rodneyc8126]

I didn't want Jim to die that way. He never listens though. Jim's first instinct is to always argue instead of listening to his daughter.

[@lorenzoFCIM1908]

Not for nothing but, is your first instinct to run when someone tells you run? He saw his daughter distressed he just wanted to protect her.

[@vincentkennedymcmahonnn]

This show has made me to use my brain a lot trying to figure things out 😂 The final ep of s3 was a bang with introduction of this guy i spent whole night researching on this ep

[@ZhangBeihai732]

The Man in Yellow (MIY) could be a time traveler like Julie. He travels back in time to influence events so that a particular outcome is achieved. The Boy in White (BIW) is his counterpart - both time travelers (StoryWalkers) trying to influence/direct the way the story is written. That is how they know events before they happen

[@ArvinDelRosario]

This theory doesn't explain how the MIY is super strong though.

[@ZhangBeihai732]

@ArvinDelRosario You are right. I have no idea how or why he is super strong, just like I have no idea why the monsters are super strong. Any theories on why or how they became super strong? As far as I know, the reward for sacrificing their children was to get immortality and not super strength.

[@marttiv4933]

The first thing that came to my mind when Jim died, that the man in yellow is Jim himself from the future, and that he is trying to change something by killing a younger version of himself. Might sound far fetched but you don't usually see a main character getting killed without a long dramatic scene.

[@matthieumeylemans6132]

@@marttiv4933that would turn out paradoxical. If he kills his younger self, there would be no older Jim to kill his younger self.

[@cruxe2372]

This doesn’t make very much sense. If he’s a story walker he shouldn’t be able to change anything and if he can it seems like more than just influencing what happens. He can travel to points in time and eliminate whoever he wants.

[@theinvertedworld.]

FINALLY.....!! i saw him and literally yelled at the damn screen that it was the king in yellow. it also matches up when you see the character has no patent. is all about information and secrets. the town also seems as if it is cycling a play with the same characters being played by different actors like tabitha and jade.

[@LadyImano]

The cave drawing you showed is the monster rebirths. It’s an exact mirror image of Smiley’s rebirth. Once you see it, there is no unseeing it.

[@timproc9355]

Why do people insist there is a good entity? Nothing has been freely giving unless there are sacrifices. The boy in white is on the Merry go round "plays" with young Victor while the town is all but massacred. Kenny's mother tortured and killed in front of Boyd they then they get food to survive. The children give Jade and Tabitha their "memories." The Jim gets his throat ripped out. I can go on and on. Even if the "good" entity is helping it knows the consequences of push back by the evil entity. Can we really call it good?

[@DollaFiend]

Maybe that’s why the boy in white told Victor that they have to figure it out by themselves because he knows it’s consequences for knowledge

[@lordnemo6401]

I do wonder because he saved Boyd during season 1 finally

[@derrellarthur4604]

[@casperthegm741]

We know Jim doesn't ever listen to anyone, Julie should have just gotten his attention and run away from him, telling her that Ethan is hurt and needs help (or something like that). Since she's from the future, she should have had time to come up with a better plan to save him.

[@Jeff-sf6cl]

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..)

[@mathdrivensociety]

great theory but I would like to know this... if the MIY is so angered by the fact that tabatha dug the hole why doesn't he directly pay her a visit or likely, if jade and tabatha are the chosen ones, bro could easily obliterate them every time they get reincarnated to the town as he doesn't work with time clearly.

[@eddykaye8217]

I think the end of the series will be Boyd and various characters taking a boat out of the town, as it floods, and the song "If I had a boat" will be playing as they head off

[@bigdurks]

You statement about the people that died returning could happen since father Khatri and the bartender can speak to jade and Boyd.

[@jaeshasway]

@@mathdrivensocietyHe can’t control her coming back to life, so he chose to kill Jim which would hurt her and possibly neutralize her, at least in her current life. She mentioned she knew Jim was there to take care of the kids which left her free to look for answers and possibly save the children. Now that Jim is gone she might be inclined to stop.

[@flipperjones509]

@@mathdrivensociety I feel like the Man in Yellow was somehow released by Jade playing the song. Prior to that perhaps he was limited in what he could do.

[@angelaandreasen6797]

I thought when I first saw the guy in yellow come out in the daylight and he made a comment about the violin playing my first thought was that him playing that song on the violin did something where the creatures can come out in the daytime.

[@Shoyo..]

Man istg I was so scared the whole season that breaking the tottams in other village will cancel the effects of stones or make monsters stronger so I had the same thoughts

[@GrimmShadowsII]

I think he's different then them. He never transforms when he attacks the way the creatures do when they attack. I think the violin playing either summoned him or caught his attention and he came to see who was playing and what was going on.

[@lucybunny185]

The Mabuse start up screen on the defibrillator is coloured yellow, kind of interesting seeing as it's a piece of equipment that discharges electrical shocks

[@SickNastyyy]

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 have a theory about Eloise. While escaping from the root cellar, she managed to get into the tree and escape to the real world.

When she grew up, she became the author of the book that Ethan read.

[@Toska7241]

@@Lugh444 exacly, thats why i wonder if she is alive and where

[@YTHeroes]

But if that was the case, wouldn't Henry have found her? I mean she was missing, if she suddenly ended up in the real world and seeking help, the police would identify her. Even if she hadn't lived with her father, he'd know she's alive. I still believe she's alive tho, it was mentioned several times that Victor only found pieces and didn't know if it was actually her, that must mean something. My theory is she might still be in Fromville, but deep in the forest. Maybe she ran from the monsters, found a place to hide and then couldn't find her way back to town. What if there is a 50 yo, badass warrior Eloise surviving in a part of the forest nobody has been to. iirc Boyd and Sara walked for several hours until finding the webs and lighthouse, meaning it's totally realistic that someone is living out there nobody has encountered so far.

Boyd met Martin in the tower and got infected with the worms. Then the worms bile killed Smiley. when Boyd touched him. Later on Boyd gave Ellis a blood transfusion after the death of Smiley. Ellis then impregnated Fatima after the blood transfusion and now we just saw Fatima give birth to Smiley. The entire cycle of death and rebirth was all triggered by Martin in the tower.

[@Alan-ic8ow]

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 Sara has taken Victor's words to heart. She is the scariest person in town, and knowing that most everyone hates her, I think she's decided to be the one to literally get her hands dirty when the situation calls for it now, because she has nothing left to lose for herself, but doesn't want others to lose themselves when she can take that burden from them.

[@twdjt6245]

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.

[@benbegley2972]

The theory of this show relating to the yellow king and carcosa would be pretty crazy to me considering this and true detective are my two favorite shows.

[@krbcan1569]

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.

[@KarenRedd-mp8qj]

Very good!!

[@maxredjasper55]

If the MIY is someone we already know it would explain why he doesn't also kill Julie! He still has *some* attachment to his old life.

[@TheAntonioClark]

season 1 episode 2, Ethan has a seizure after the RV Crash, where he says he saw the Lake Of Tears, (AKA A Vision) Just like when Julie went into the Ruins, Has a Seizure, then has a vision of the tunnels. (AKA Another Vision) They both have a superior significance to the Powers / Magic / Curse going on here. Not to mention as well, Tabby is Miranda - So Is Ethan / Julie Eloise / Victor? (MIY) Cant be Ethan, "Your wife shouldn't of dug that hole" Wouldn't he of chosen "Mom Shouldn't of.." I suspect Randal is MIY, Because I feel as if they turned him over to a demonic / monster so that they had a troop within enemy lines.(Trojan Horsed their asses)

[@cocojoelle]

him being the man in yellow makes the voices telling sara to kill him make sense ooooof

[@savannahworth2495]

The man in yellow can see what’s going on no matter what and he is a story teller. That’s probably why he’s trying to stop things from happening or changing. He could be an older Ethan or Victor - it seems they are the only ones who can tell stories in the town. He probably just wants power and total control. Of course I’m probably totally wrong. 😂😂😂 But there is a story telling element here that we haven’t figured out. WHO IS IN CONTROL OF THE STORY? That’s the key! 😊

[@susandelgado6926]

I think that you are right.

[@krbcan1569]

I'm guessing the person who seems to be most in control of the story might be Ethan.

[@phillyphilly1076]

Jim deserves what he got. He never listens to anyone and that’s how he lived, so that’s how he got taken out. Glad the season picked up and we got to see some answers and actions. Excited for season 4.

[@SHIEES-y6d]

I think the man in yellow is really the "King in yellow" which is a mysterious gothic lovecraftian like entity. The OG storry is 9 stories tht looseley tie into eachother & reflect aspects of FROM ive noticed. Not only tht it wpuld explain who & what this place is.....a space controled by a malicious mysterious entity. If u read the "king in yellow" u would notice alot of reflecting points from that a Story and FROM. I think the writer's look inspired from that story and the man in yellow is really the KING IN YELLOW a powerful Lovecraft like entity

[@Richrdmille]

Y’all notice Jim be clueless but always find clues. It’s crazy

[@verity_amo]

Glad I'm not the only one to make the King in Yellow connection lmao

[@timproc9355]

there are more Celtic references than anything Tree of Life (Crann Bethadh): These trees were portal to the spirit world. Aka Bottle Tree and tree in the road. Yellow represents Knowledge in Celtic lore. As than man in yellow says with knowledge there is sacrifices. I think we are seeing a twisted take on Celtic/Gaul folklore. There is even celtic/gaul runes in the cave Tabitha fell into.

[@ardmarampa7521]

Anyone remember Ethan wearing a yellow shirt in season 1 when Jim was talking on the radio and someone said "Your wife shouldn't have dug that hole"?

[@qmnnvrdyz8965]

I'm wondering if the red figure, painted on the cave wall, is just showing the Monsters being "born" and not the "big bad". Smiley looked an awful lot like that drawing/painting from behind, when he was shedding his monster-placenta.

[@YassineAbid-nt3hw]

Listen guys , so there were a people living in this village and they sacrificed their children as we know to this devil thing but tabetha and jade didn't want to sacrifice their daughter so the people forced them and that's why tabetha says we been here before cuz she was immortal and the soul is the immortal thing so it went from the original women who was in the village then to miranda then to tabetha that's why there is three of that braclet that she made one in tabetha's home one in miranda's and one in the village in the diner 😅😅

[@YassineAbid-nt3hw]

And both of these souls of tabetha and jade bcuz they refused to sacrifice their daughter there job is to remove this curse from this town and to save the old people that were living here(the monsters)

[@TheJaymzizzle]

He's a crossroad demon that the original townspeople sacrificed their children too.

[@Gully_Lethalz_165]

Yeh i agree, i had a similar theory myself

[@TheJaymzizzle]

@Gully_Lethalz_165 this would make the town the crossroads. A place between worlds. I also think others in the town made sacrifices and got stuck there too. There's a goat on the poster for one of the seasons which could be for sacrifice.

[@Gully_Lethalz_165]

@@TheJaymzizzle I often comment theorys but forget after or where I commented( I comment on alot diffrent channels) but wat I can remember is I thought maybe man in yellow is immortal but not same as monsters or story walker, cos in ep 10 Sarah sead something about saving boyds soul but shes already gave hers...so i think maybe the man yellow is like Sarah, he used to hear voices or see entity's, but instead of tryna surpress it like sarah the man embraced it, and eventually his soul was lost to the town which turned him evil and gave him sum powers and immortality similar to the monsters, but I don't know tbh 🤷🏾‍♂️😂Ur theory makes more sense to me

[@lisasimpson8895]

dude, are you part of the writing crew in the show? that yellow king thing sounds so spot on it can't not be exactly what they are doing with this show.

[@giovannimathurin6427]

My theory is he and the kimono lady were the first to sacrifice their kid (the boy in white). They made the deal with the others to do the same. So they’re kinda like a cult.

[@rofflesvanwagon]

[@JustARandomSomething]

I wonder if Julie is the one who destroys the tower which is ruined in the present day (the one where they were all tied to the wall) . Maybe when she goes back in time at one point in the future she brings the tower down.

[@hanzojapa]

I did posted about the King in Yellow on two facebook groups. I'm glad more people are associating the character also

[@leonardocasali6392]

What i don't understand is...if the problem is people discovering too much, why the man in yellow kills jim and not tabitha/jade??

[@leefp6719]

I believe it's also to destabilize both Julie and Tabitha

[@Tracy.W]

also tabitha/ jade would come back in a different form anyways and potentially/eventually remember where they left off. Where as Jim wouldn't and if Jim realized they died getting close to answers he probably wouldn't let it go, like the tower he tried to build.

[@sacredscarabstudy]

because he isnt important to the timeline

[@krbcan1569]

Maybe he can't directly kill Jade or Tabitha. Something is preventing him from doing it. Only maybe the monsters can kill them.

[@mattgilbert7347]

Because those two are reincarnations and either he *can't* kill them or he figures it's pointless as eventually they'll just come back

[@Manjomeli]

[@Mikeconch]

[@altairglendeocampo]

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.

[@kurtenalfresco]

Sorry to break it to you, but the yellow suited man on the painting does not have a scar, if you look at the whole painting , you can see it is a line that crosses his face from the top to the bottom. There various white long lines that come seem to have been done after.

[@High-Overlord-Pugula]

The guy on the radio in season 1 sounds a whole lot like the man in yellow

[@ausar3852]

He has been watching town 7 24 for sure... he is also most likely the one that informs the monsters of what sheriff screamed (you cant break me) and tell them all their info when that female monster said (we know all your names) he does not abide by the rules of monsters so makes me think he is the king of some sort...

[@chico9805]

​@@ausar3852 It's clear he's a demon that has been given dominion over the town, by the sacrifice of the children. If that yoke is broken, he loses his power.

[@JakeMTaylor]

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.

When Jade played the song and recovered their memories, I don't think it so much "unlocked" the MIY, but the circumstances forced him to reveal himself.

[@harsh_hydra12345]

I think he is the father of victor . And in this show many characters are there future or past versions like something we seen in dark like that monster woman in basement who kidnapped Fatima is actually fatima's version of monster. Also the white boy is victors version . Like how we seen in episode 10 that the monster girl was daughter of them .

[@anishahmed4844]

[@MEDVE1978]

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.

First thing : I couldn't dislike more Jim as a character. But yeah I really like the idea this could be some version of the King in Yellow mixed with doctor Mabuse. Especially as falling to madness, killing others thinking to do good or just because you went mad is kind of an important theme revolving around the King in Yellow.

I think the way From ends up ending is going to be the actual way Lost was supposed to end. I think Lost writers moved away from the original plan because of all the theories that were getting close to what it actually was and also got themselves into a pickle by saying it could all be scientifically explained. I think the smoke monster is basically like the monsters in from and Jacob is the boy in white while his brother is the man in yellow. I really believe From is the show Lost was supposed to be and I hope they don't stretch it too much, I think 4 seasons is perfect.

Had a dream about the last episode last night. It was epic. All the main characters got super powers and started beating the dog s#!t out of the monsters 😅

3 Things I thought of during this scene: - Julie was "storywalking" and attempting to change this moment currently unfolding. This also wasn't her first attempt. - The man in the Yellow Jacket is the "owner" of the Dungeon and is the one Julie, Mari and Randall saw while being tortured. - This scene wasn't directly after Jim was at the tree and caught up with Tabitha, but sometime later. Maybe a day or week later.
