In horror narratives, supernatural entities often exploit psychological vulnerabilities and manifest through victims' suppressed fears, as demonstrated by the man in yellow suit who uses telepathic connections to manipulate victims and feed on their fear, while victims' traumatic memories and artistic expressions can serve as evidence of supernatural encounters.

FROM season 4 episode 4 Reaction | Of Myth And MonstersAdded:
Hey guys, let's get back to this crazy show with episode four. Cannot wait to see what happens. Uh, is Boy going to tell them what happened uh when he was at his wife's grave?
Let's see. Oh, yeah. Victor, >> my wife Miranda, she painted things she saw here. One of those paintings was of a man in a yellow suit. You're telling me this could be the same suit.
>> Yep.
>> Where's the guy who wore >> long gone? Maybe.
>> No, Boyd.
>> The best thing we can do right now is talk to Victor.
>> I'll I'll do it. I'll talk to him.
>> No, maybe we should all >> No, >> I will talk to my son.
>> Exactly. Clearly, this is something that is very disturbing to him. It triggered something in him.
>> For 40 years, that boy was nothing but a a painting in my basement, [laughter] that suit, this placement. And now, I think there was a part of me that was still trying to pretend any of this was normal.
>> That's what I was going to say. He's he was in there, but he was kind of still in denial about it a little bit. But now everything that he saw in the paintings are manifesting right in front of him.
And it's like there's no denying.
There's no pretending. You can't put it in the back of your mind anymore. This is it.
Jesus. But I'm glad that everybody knows now. Well, everybody, our group, the rest of the town is still oblivious to what's going on. But does that mean that they're going to be maybe able to detect who Sophia is? And what does Victor know about the men in yellow? I cannot wait for that conversation. the man in the yellow suit. [snorts] Miranda was able to paint him and then somewhere in your mind there might be an answer to who he is.
>> Mhm.
>> About your [ __ ] mushrooms.
Boyd, are you seriously okay with him taking magic mushrooms that he found in a haunted forest?
>> No, Donna.
>> Um, he's a grown adult. He can do WHATEVER HE WANTS. BOYD IS not our dad.
Okay. I get to do what I want to do.
What do you mean? Are you okay? You don't get to be okay or not okay? that he found in a haunted forest.
>> No, Donna, I'm not >> in a haunted forest. [laughter] >> We're losing. Okay, I'm not going to say that out there, but in here, whatever game this is.
>> Mhm.
>> We are losing.
>> Mhm.
>> If there are answers in his head, any answers, we need to get them out.
>> There you go.
>> Well, good luck with that. You do this, you go on this little trip, you know, you may not come back, right?
>> Yeah.
Listen, Donna better not be an op. I'm sorry for pausing already, but now that we know that the men in yellow can morph into shape-shift into another person, what if there's more of him? And the way that Randall was trying to say to Donna, you know, she always pops up.
She always, you know, and now I'm like looking at her, you know, there's a little corner of my eye that's like, "Oh, why is she trying to deter him from using the mushroom and trying to figure out everything? She's trying to scare him or you may not come back." Donna, we need answers.
So, I hope that's her just being worried and not something else cuz, you know, >> I assume Kenny told you about me. Mhm.
>> about what I did.
>> Yeah.
>> So, why would you want to live here?
>> Thank you for asking the questions.
>> My father used to always say that only good people are tortured by the bad things that they've done.
Plus, I figured here I get my own room.
>> As much as I enjoy her character, guys, you need to open up your eyes.
What is she doing?
She's talking to Sarah.
Oh, she's the one who's doing this. The man in yellow is the one doing this to her.
Okay.
So, he's been the one telling her stuff, doing things to her, torturing her, telling her to kill. Wow. Of many of course it makes sense.

>> No.
>> [ __ ] no. [laughter] >> Just raw like that. Okay.
>> Why didn't you tell me about the lake of tears?
>> Why did you go to Jade and Victor and not come to me?
>> I didn't tell you because I knew you wouldn't believe me.
He's not gone.
He's still here.
>> Okay, then I need you to pack back.
>> Let's go find it.
>> We're going to treat him.
>> I was so scared that she was going to burst his bubble.
>> Here we are. Story walker Fred was an elevator repair man who spent his weekend story walking as he pleased through all the wondrous tales and greatest adventures of our time.
I need you to pack your back. We're going out to a settlement.
>> Why? Ethan's convinced he needs to find the Lake of Tears.
>> The magic lake he used to talk about.
>> Yeah.
>> So, what do you need me for?
>> Well, you're not staying here alone.
>> Oh, I'm not going to be alone. I'll be with Randall.
[laughter] >> It's not like that.
>> It's really not.
>> Christine and Marielle are there.
Yeah, she does not trust him.
>> I don't know who you are or what you want. Julie trusts you. She feels safe around you and she needs that right now.
So, I need you to look me in the eye and tell me you understand what I will do to you if you ever do anything to break that trust.
>> Exactly.
>> I understand.
>> Mhm.
>> Okay, good.
And I feel like you would be a fool to try to do anything in this town cuz there is nowhere to go. Nowhere to go.
You can't run.
All right. What are they up to?
If she's still eating rotten food, I swear.
Girl, what are they doing?
>> How's this?
>> This is uh perfect. Thank you, Alen. You should go now.
Okay, >> not him counting again.
>> And I I I used to measure all the time and and then I haven't been paying attention and I should have been paying attention.
>> Can I help?
See if the trees are moving.
The casting for him and his dad is really good. They have the same type of face, same time, same type of build.
Like I believe that that's his dad.
Oh, it's Fatima. Whatever she's doing, she had a hose in there.
Yeah.
Hi.
Is she Is she recreating the three stones that we saw with the red on top?
And also, um, you're telling me that there's an empty room in Colony House while people sleep on the floor downstairs.
No, >> listen. The way I would have dig up the grave just to make sure.
>> They said they want me to go to the diner, pour a glass of water from the pitcher, take a sip, and then Pour it back in.
>> And then what?
>> That's it.
>> That's it.
>> I feel like they're just messing with you at this point.
>> How's that going to hurt anyone?
>> I don't know.
But there's always a consequence.
>> Always. No. Elgen, have you learned nothing?
>> Whatever is wrong with me, what if it's [music] like an infection?
What if I pass it on to someone else and then the voices start torturing them? I don't want anyone to have to live like this.
>> Thank God for Sarah.
>> They said if I don't do it by midday, then something bad will happen to someone that I care about.
>> Okay. Well, then do it. Put it back in the picture, but then throw the picture out. Nobody has to drink from the water.
Then you did what they asked you to do.
>> I I think that I think they moved a little.
>> You said that you told yourself that wasn't real.
>> What wasn't real?
>> Did you mean the yellow suit?
C Can you tell me about the man who wore it? Was he someone that hurt hurt you?
Victor, what? Victor, come. Come with me. I'll show you.
>> Oh, okay. Okay.
>> When you say monster, >> boy, I know you're worried about me, but you don't have to be.
>> Fatima, you need to tell us a little more because what do you mean?
>> I figured once he was back from the food run, once he could see what I was doing, it would be easier to explain.
What are you doing?
>> Explain it to me.
>> Yeah, >> we need a few more words here.
>> But my dad told stories of all the different faiths.
He'd say, "Fatame, they have it wrong. They all think their road is the only way. Don't they understand that all roads lead to the divine?
>> Do you know what a golem is?" A golem.
>> She's making a golem.
>> A what?
>> It's a part of a religious folklore.
It's a giant made of clay. It protects people. It's a champion.
>> Okay. Okay.
>> Symbol of hope.
>> She couldn't make it outside.
>> Wait, that person up there is not the Fatima that I know.
And I think if you're being honest with yourself, that's Not the Fatima, you know, either.
>> Well, let her cook. Let her cook.
I mean, I think it's stupid to build it inside cuz you're going to flood this house, but let her cook.
>> What's going to happen when Ethan learns that Lake of Tears is not real?
>> Well, maybe it is real.
>> I don't know how to do this alone.
>> You are not alone.
>> People keep saying that.
>> Maybe you should [ __ ] listen.
I don't want to find another one of those notes like the one of my nights.
>> Yeah, that was [ __ ] up.
>> If anyone [music] is going to risk their lives to do something stupid, that person is going to be me and not you.
>> Okay, Donna. Okay.
>> Oh, >> looks like a broken wing.
What kind of bird is this?
>> Never seen anything here but crows. We have to take him with us. The lake at the settlement. Release the leak of tears. It'll fix him. That's how we'll know.
>> Oh, girl.
I I think it's really nice that you reopen the diner.
>> Well, I thought it'd be a good way to to keep busy, >> factor.
>> Yeah.
>> Do you mind dumping that out for me?
>> Oh, sure.
>> She's not going to do it. Thank god. Cuz you never know.
>> Wait, what? Wait, what's happening?
I don't I don't know.
>> Is it midday yet?
>> Don't move. Okay.
>> Oh, her.
>> Stay right where you are.
>> Okay. Okay. Look at me.
>> She's going to think Yeah.
>> She's going to do it now.
>> [sighs and gasps] >> This is how they're going to get her.
They just want to know if she'll do it.
>> Come here.
>> Got what you asked for.
>> Oh, she's cutting her hair.
>> Last time I tried this, one of those things grabbed me by the hair. That's not going to happen again. Well, you still have hair, girl. They can grab you. But now that's the Julie that we saw.
Story walking.
>> Draw the symbol on the paper and leave it there. If this works, when you pull me out, the symbol that I drew in the past will also be here on the paper in the present.
>> All right, let's try.
>> You've been waiting to do that since we left town, haven't you? [laughter] >> [snorts] >> You're asking me to watch you have another seizure.
>> I'm asking you for 5 seconds.
>> Draw the symbol. You pull me out.
>> Like, it's worth the try.
And see, this is something that the others needs to know as well, cuz this is a big piece of the puzzle.
The fact that she can do this.
All right. Where is she going to go? Oh, the day everybody died. Did she going to see Victor?
Hh.
Girl, write it down real quick.
Squouching.
Oh, someone is still alive. Oh.
[screaming] Wow.
See, NOW THEY TALK TO EACH OTHER. SHE'LL be able to tell them who the man in yellow is.
It didn't work.
>> Victor, come on.
>> You know, Victor hides things. He has things everywhere around this place.
Things he doesn't want to remember.
pictures. I guess he drew. Yeah, >> he came in a car just like the rest of us.
Thought his yellow suit was funny and we thought he was just like us. We >> Oh, brought him in and made him our friend, but he wasn't like us. When everyone died, when I found saw him out by the bottle tree. I saw him >> eating them.
>> Oh, he was eating his mom.
>> Oh, he was eating.
Victor saw too much.
[snorts] Wait. [laughter] And I love that that's the time that Julie went back to she act she also saw it and now Victor is telling his dad about what he saw and about his drawings.
God, what would you guys have done? Can you imagine?
You're looking for your mother and some guy is eating her.
So wait, he Okay, he came into town. He already had the yellow suit. So that's not his original form. He already took the form of someone else at that point, but he just kept it this whole time.
So see now, Victor, that's a piece of information that everybody needs to know so that we know that someone could be in here and it could be him. And you can start looking for signs.
I still can understand why they're not communicating with each other. Why everybody is not telling everybody everything.
>> He was a simple man with an unshakable faith in obedience to God.
>> She's Abraham.
Does Does he think he's God? Then >> God tested Abraham, ordering him to kill his only son as a way to prove his faith. God intervened and offered a ram to be sacrificed instead.
>> She's going to dump it out.
>> Abraham. God never intended for Abraham to kill his son.
>> He was testing him.
>> He simply needed to know if he would.
>> That's what I said. They're testing you to know how far you would go. Would you still listen to them? To the voices, Sarah. And now you just told them that you would.
So next time they ask you to do something, you'll probably do it.
>> Otima, I need to know why you're doing this. Whatever it is, I need you to tell me. Please, don't let this place make you afraid to talk to me.
>> I still feel it.
>> That thing I carried inside me. I still feel it. Like we're connected.
>> I [ __ ] knew it.
I [ __ ] knew it.
When they came back, I said, "What if she has a connection to Smiley now?
[ __ ] hell. They can't let Fatima rest for 5 seconds. [ __ ] >> It goes both ways.
>> Oh, he feels what she feel.
>> He feels what I'm feeling, too. He feels how afraid I am.
>> He like He likes it.
>> It makes me feel strong.
>> There we go.
>> It makes me feel less afraid.
>> I knew it. Just let her cook a little bit. She good. So, I'm wondering through her connection, could she find information about them or maybe about Smiley specifically? I feel like as scary as it is, I would try to find answers through that connection.
I don't know what you guys would do in that situation. Let me know. But I think that I would try to find some answers cuz that connection even though it goes both ways, it is still powerful to have because no one else has that connection with them directly. So I would try to work on that and try to pinpoint certain things about them. Maybe there there are answers in there.
Where did that fall from? Isn't that his?
Yeah, >> it's still there.
What?
No, >> it's not there.
And I was thinking, don't just put it down. I would still hold it just to make sure I still have it, you know.
Uhoh. What are we going to find? What is this?
>> Roger, you good? Uh Um, I was going to say, did he pull the is it going to drain? Oh. Oh.
Oh, no. Were those bodies? One thing I hate about this show, it will give you an ending. What? What? Why were they like hiding under the water? I thought he pulled up the the plug and somehow the water was going to drain.
Wow, this is crazy. Okay, interesting episode. I think it was a little slower than I would have liked. I wanted to have more um answers, but we know we know how the show goes.
[gasps] Um, but yeah, we we still got a couple of things like Julie saw the men in yellow eating people. That's the day um that we saw Victor come out and everybody was dead and he saw the boy in white. I was kind of hoping that she would see Victor and that maybe Victor would be like, "Oh, you know, like he remembers somewhere or that she would be in one of his drawings." But she saw the man in yellow eating people and he almost got her Come to find out that Victor found his mother, but she was being eaten by him.
Wow. Now I understand why he peed himself when he saw the the the clothes.
But the other information that we got is that he already came into town with that um physique.
So M when Miranda was doing was doing the drawings, was she drawing what was happening like at that time or was she seeing things from the past cuz obviously I don't think the town looked the way it did the way it does now like a 100 years ago, right? So, [sighs and gasps] so she saw the man in yellow and he's been looking like this this whole time. Where has he been? Was he asleep?
You know what it feels like?
It feels like he, you know, he says, "This is my favorite part, like he needs to like feed on people and then maybe he goes dormant.
He lets, you know, every the cycles repeat itself. Uh, the other creatures, you know, terrorize the town. And when people are good and scared, it's almost like, you know, when it got it tastes better." Maybe that's a thing where he's like, I'm I need to wait. And then that final day when everybody tears themselves apart, he comes out and eats, right?
And then he goes back dormant.
And he needs the song to unlock him back into the town.
I think that's kind of what's going on with him.
What else happened? Fatima.
She She'll be all right. She'll be all right. Um I think she could use that connection to spy on them in a way. And now the bodies that we found at the end.
They always leave us with something like that. Can't wait for next week to see what that is about. Who are these people?
Obviously the the creatures probably did that, but to what end?
Um, trying to remember what else happened.
Sarah, Sarah, girl, you shouldn't have done it.
You shouldn't have done it. Um, it was definitely a test just to see if she would do it knowing what can happen, especially after what happened to Elgen and she was the one to stop him. And now again, she's listening to the voices.
Like Sarah, come on. You're smarter than that. You're being played. Um, but yeah, let me know what you guys think. What are who are the people in the lake? Um, is the man in yellow going to keep the appearance of uh Sophia until the next time he comes back? Until the next cycle, you know?
Um, let me know your theories in the comment section. I cannot wait to read them. And well, I'll see you guys on the next one. Bye.
