I have watched many TV Series over the past years, and I find refreshing series that build intrigue and suspense. Years ago, I watched the series “Lost” by J.J. Abrams. It is confusing, and the story builds up and slowly answers questions throughout multiple seasons. The series “FROM” by MGM has a few workers from the original “LOST” — including actor Harold Perrineau.
The series can be confusing and exhausting as you don’t know all the rules of this universe, or what’s going on in general. Later in Season 3, things start to make sense. There are some wild rules to this universe and different groups or factions in the background that are not always visible. There are monsters. There are ghosts. There are entities. Some are evil. Some are good or have ulterior motives.
For now, here is a full Spoiler summary, character quotes, over a hundred screenshots, and a few description notes (in blue boxes). You are warned. This page covers Season 1, 10 episodes. It took me a long time to put together over the past week. I’m not a writer, and my grammar isn’t great. Bare with me.

From TV Series Spoilers: Season 1 Recap
SEASON 1, Ep. 1: Long Day’s Journey into Night
1 — Sara asks a couple to go home. The night is coming soon. Sara closes the Diner and goes to the backroom. The jukebox turns on by itself and plays: “We Gotta Get Out of This Place.” The song says: “Now my girl, you’re so Young and pretty ♪ And one thing I know is true ♪ You’ll be dead before your time is due, I know ♪
This part of the song changes the camera to the girl named Meagan on the swing. [Meagan dies shortly after the song. This might mean the jukebox turns on sometimes to alert someone will die today.]
2 — A sign outside the Sheriff Station (Post Office) says: “Nights without incident: 96.” [No one had been killed for the past 3 months and a few days before Lauren and Meagan’s deaths.]
3 – Frank is drunk and passed out at the Tavern, and sleeps there.
4 – Lauren Pratt and Meagan wait for Frank, who didn’t return home. Lauren places the talisman on the door. Meagan prays upstairs and hears a knocking on the window. She hears the voice of her grandma who asks her to come to the window and to keep it secret. The old lady says she misses her. Lauren discovers this scene. The old lady says maybe I can come in. Meagan opens the window as her mother yells: “No!” The old lady transforms into a monster and lunges at Meagan as the camera fades out.
5 — Boyd confronts Frank Pratts for not being home to protect his wife and daughter. For being too busy drinking instead of nailing down all the windows.
6 – An RV drives along a highway. Julie has two figures attached to her point fingers as she tells a story to her brother, Ethan: “Norman, you will be ok. The secret fairies are on their way back from the Lake of Tears. They’re gonna fix you! No. The monster’s claws went too deep. Tell my friends I’ll miss them. Tell my parents I said goodbye. (Norman dies)”
[Julie starts episode 1 as a storyteller, and shortly after, they find the tree on the road. It could be interpreted that after Meagan and Lauren are killed by the monster, the Town chose a storyteller (aka Julie) to join the game. It seems new people find their way into the Town after people dies in the Town. The Town replaces or replenishes potential food sources for the monsters. It might be possible that this story told by Julie is not simply a story. The Town monsters or some of the non-violent ghosts might be these fairies and at some point, the show might show the Lake of Tears. It's one of the wild theories floating around in Reddit.]
The Matthews family finds a tree blocking the road. Shortly after, an unkindness of Ravens descend frantically above the trees, scaring the family away in their RV.
7 – Tobey and Jade drive in a car that almost collides with the RV, causing an accident. Jade is under the effects of drugs
8 – Kristi is driven by Father Khatri and Deputy Kenny to the accident to patch up Ethan’s leg which got impaled by a table leg. Boyd decides to stay overnight with a Talisman guarding the entrance to the RV.
9 – Ellis points out the car where Tobey and Jade arrived has New York license plates. Kristi says Sara and Nathan are from Boston.
[This is the first time it is implied that people who enter the Town come from different locations across the United States. All of them find the same tree blockage before entering the Town.]
10 — Sara stabs Tobey through his neck. The voices demand her to do this and to leave the Infirmary door open.
11 — On their way back to the Colony House on the hill, the spike strip flattens the Pickup Truck’s wheels. Kenny forgot to remove the spike strip from the road. The night is upon them in a couple of minutes. Father Khatri suggests to Ellis, Kenny, Tabitha, and Julie to hurry up and run to the Colony House.
12 — Ethan recovers consciousness but suddenly suffers seizures. Seconds after this, an eerie howling is heard. The monsters are coming.
[It might be possible that Ethan's seizures are a response to the monsters waking up from their slumber. Ethan has a special talent for seeing ghosts in this Town.]
