8 Relationships That’ll Get You Hooked on From
Welcome to nightmare town, population: eldritch abominations, bickering marrieds, and a lot of ghosts.
From introduces us to its world through the Matthews family, amusement-park-ride engineer Jim (Eion Bailey); his wife, Tabitha (Catalina Sandino Moreno); their teen daughter, Julie (Hannah Cheramy), and young son Ethan, who while on a road trip crash their RV and end up in the town. Jim builds a radio tower on top of Colony House to communicate with the outside world, and Tabitha digs dozens of feet down in their home’s basement to figure out where their electricity comes from; these missions unite and give the Matthewses purpose, even if they ultimately just lead to more confusing scenarios. That normalcy changes in the second season, when Boyd is infected by parasitic worms that cause him to hear a music box playing, visualize a murderous ballerina, and communicate with Abby, who, like Buffy ’s First Evil, preaches nihilism and encourages him to let the town’s citizens die.
