Tabitha Grieves The Death Of Another Child Shortly After Losing Thomas
ConsideringTabitha and Jim’s son, Thomas, had recently diedbefore they became trapped in Fromville, it’s all the more heartbreaking thatTabitha’s past life revelations mean she’s grieving the loss of yet another child. Not only this, but Tabitha has likely experienced the deaths of several children across her various lifetimes. Her original form lost her daughter to the monsters’ sacrifice, Miranda lost Eloise the same night she died, and Tabitha lost Thomas before becoming trapped, suggesting a similar tragedy occurs in each lifetime.
