Long before Elgin was guided down to the basement by the Kimono Woman, Jade stumbled upon the location, passed through the hidden closet door, and experienced a horrific sight in Of season 1, episode 3. Jade also saw a dead body in the basement in Of Season 1, but it wasn’t the same corpse who Elgin encounters in season 3. While the body Elgin sees is decomposing in the corner, Jade saw a corpse crushed by a rock who screamed as she looked at it.

Whoever was crushed by the rock could be linked to the symbol that Jade often sees in Ofand the show revealed that the man killed in episode 7 of season 3 is linked to Kimono Woman.
Apparently, Jade only told Kenny about the body he found in the basement, and it’s unclear whether Elgin will share his discovery with others in town.
