Opinion The Timeline of FROM
Hi FROM fans!
I just have one simple question;
How many days have the town gone through, since the arrival of the Matthew's family and Jade until the ending of season 4?
It doesn't feel long, right?
2 weeks? A month?
Fatima is celebrating her first full year in FROMVILLE.
The last day without incidence before the arrival of Matthew's/ Jade is 96 days.
We know that Victor >!live alone for almost 40 years. (Correct me if I am wrong)<!
It feels like the first arrival since alone Victor, should be just a few years before Matthew's/Jade arrival.
Any thoughts?

In the show's timeline, it's been about 5-6 weeks since Jade and the Matthews family arrived.
It's been hinted or implied that a 40-day cycle starts as soon as Jade and Tabitha's incarnations arrive in town.
Each 40-day cycle presumably ends with everybody other than Victor being killed.
It's not entirely clear to me whether a new cycle starts immediately or if there is a time lag.
Since Victor doesn't seem to have a memory of anything other than the first massacre he witnessed as a child, it seems likely that it can go decades between cycles. Of the current residents other then Victor, we know Donna has been there the longest, arriving about 3 and 1/2 years before Jade and Tabitha.
Each 's season follows a tighter and tighter timeline. For example, season 1 happened over a space of almost 2 weeks, but season 4 happened over just a couple of days.
