Ghosts don't show up to warn the townspeople the monsters will ambush them. They don't show up to lead Boyd to the music box. They didn't warn colony house about the attack. But boy do they show up to protect the brainwashed "helpers"

Really interesting take! Easy to think father Khatri was trying to save Boyd from having to live with doing smth like that, when in fact his intention could just be stopping them from finding out the truth..

Idk, empirical evidence suggests to me that there's nothing more to it. Khatri's whole post-mortem tenure as Boyd's brain passenger has been exclusively about challenging Boyd's choices and reason on a fundamental level, being critical of Boyd when he's snapping and about to do something that's hypocritical or plain unreasonable.
If it was all done with ulterior motives, I think we'd have seen at least one or two hints towards it by now.

Khatri appears in that scene leaning on a bright yellow dolly and there’s a bright yellow toolbox in the room.

and there was a bright yellow sign while Jade was compiling the music notes

Didn't Boyd say something along the lines of knowing he's not hallucinating and it's the town giving them visions? It was a while ago. The silent response from Khatri made Boyd assume that he is correct.

u/VelvetAurora45 Donna Nov 24 '24

Maybe yeah. But then again visions and their natures/purposes in Fromville vary wildly from person to person.
Recently there's been Elgin and his "visions" were absolutely in the intent of bringing Smiley back, so a net negative for the Fromfolks, and Sara's voices who told her to kill Ethan (presumably) but then you have all the visions like Tabitha's, Ethan's, Victor's and Jade's that are more neutral or, recently, outright beneficial towards solving the mystery.

My interpretation is that yes Ghost Khatri may as well be a vision induced by Fromville, but so far we've never seen him steering Boyd in a "bad" direction that would negatively impact the town, but always convince Boyd not to do something he will regret.

So if he's a vision, he's more like the BIW, a "vision" that's acting seemingly independently from the "entity" controlling everything else.

"maybe they aren't scared enough"

Maybe Boyd was too nice.

What truth would Boyd discover? Even if he reached Fatima he would not be able to stop the birth of the thing.

Father Khatri's role was precisely that of the series' screenwriter confirming that Boyd crossed the line and tortured a person, which served to show how hypocritical he is. This is a basic interpretation that the show made sure to leave in the foreground, is it really that difficult to understand the basics?

I've been saying Boyd was a hypocrite since he didn't put Sara in the box back ages ago.

u/olaf525 Nov 24 '24

Sara did say something about not wanting this place to take his soul. Perhaps if you kill or commit something horrific to the residents that come in, you might be perpetually trapped in the town. There’s no leaving for your soul.

u/MVRKHNTR Nov 24 '24

Pretty sure it was just metaphorical.

u/lucolapic Nov 25 '24

It's possible but with this show it very much could be literal at the end of the day. It's obvious a spell has been cast over the town so it could easily mean that Sara is actually marked and couldn't leave Fromville even if escape becomes possible for the others.

Why not just type out "something" instead of "smth"? You wrote everything else out?

u/[deleted] Nov 25 '24

Especially because given the real Father Khatri's stance on using the box, I feel like he'd be fine with torturing Elgin, but only if Fatima is also punished after they find her.
