NOTICE! This article contains major SPOILERS for the season 3 finale of From!At the end of Of season 3, episode 10, a new supernatural figure in a yellow suit is introducedand he appears to be the most menacing villain yet. Since the pilot episode, OfNight monsters proved to be among the biggest threats in the city, largely due to how little was known about what exactly they were, what they wanted, and why they only attacked at night. Of The Season 3 finale finally answered many of these questions, but the introduction of the Man in Yellow adds another layer to the city’s evil mysteries.
In Of In the final moments of Season 3, Jim returns to the Matthews family trailer, only to find Julie screaming for him while threateningly warning him that this is “when this happens.” Given Of Season 3 confirmed elements of time travel to Julie’s story, the fact that she suddenly appears with shorter hair and scratches on her face suggests that she is from the future, having already seen what comes next. Suddenly, in broad daylight, a man wearing a yellow suit comes up to Jim, says that knowledge has a cost, and slits his throatraising questions about the identity and role of man in the city.
The man in the yellow suit is apparently the leader of From’s monsters
The Man in Yellow May Have Created the Monsters
Of Season 3 does not confirm the identity of the man in the yellow suit. However, he seems to be the leader of the monsters, as he is not only able to walk in daylight, which other monsters cannot, but he is also the one who punishes the characters for having too much knowledge about the city. THE man in yellow reveals to Jim that he was the one who called on the radio back Ofseason 1 finale, warning him that Tabitha “shouldn’t be digging that hole.”
Tabitha digging the hole led her to discover the tunnels and many other secrets of Ofcity, so the man in the yellow suit could be the supernatural “secret keeper” from Fromville. His exact role has not been disclosed, but he may be responsible for the creation of the city. The season 3 finale revealed that the monsters were once people who chose to sacrifice themselves OfThe “Anghkooey” sons of ‘Anghkooey’ in exchange for eternal life, so the man in yellow could potentially be the supernatural being responsible who instigated the sacrifice.
Why can the monster in the yellow suit walk in daylight and why does he kill Jim?
The Man in Yellow could be the entity that causes the chaos and horrors of Fromville
If the man in the yellow suit is the leader of the city’s creatures, then he should already have powers superior to those of the others. This can allow him more freedom to act during the day and interact with characters through objects such as telephone and radio. Considering OfThe benevolent Boy in White is another mysterious entity who can wander around during the day and communicate with the residents, the the man in the yellow suit could be the antithesis of the Boy in White, causing chaos and evil in the place, instead of trying to help.
Of Season 4 was officially renewed by MGM+ on November 21, 2024.
He apparently works in the shadows, only appearing when OfThe characters come very close to discovering Fromville’s true nature. Although Tabitha and Jade eventually regained their past life memories, he likely spared them because of their role in the city’s cyclical nature, perhaps already dooming them in his eyes. Meanwhile, characters like Jim knowing too much is dangerous, as he could expose the facade to others not necessarily “touched” by Fromville’s supernatural powers. The man in yellow says “knowledge has a cost” before killing Jim, indicating that he executes those who pose the greatest threat expose Ofsecrets.
