7 Theories About Who the Scream Queens Killer Really Is
If you’re as obsessed with Scream Queens as we are, you’re at the edge of your designer-upholstered seat waiting to find out who is the second red devil killer working under the direction of the evil 90’s-clad Gigi. We mean, this red devil is *for real: * they killed their twin brother Boone in a previous episode. Fear not, fellow Chanels, for we are here to theorize about the identity of the killer like we’re officer Denise Hemphill from Secure Enforcement Solutions. Even though Pete told Grace that he’s a murderer, we don’t know WHO he murdered. That means it’s anyone’s game at this point, and when the game is revenge-based murder, it’s even more fun to try to figure out who’s playing. Here are seven possible identities of the other red devil killer.

I know we’ve heard Chanel’s backstory that includes having parents outside of a dead sorority in a bathtub, but what if she was secretly adopted? She did say her mom always loved her more than her siblings, and let’s be real: Chanel’s already murdered two people outside of the red devil killings. She’s literally a murderer. If she had found out she wasn’t her mom’s real child, I think that’d be enough to drive her to murder.

The other twin born in the bathtub is supposed to be female, but this show is full of twists, and that could be a detail all the sisters agreed to lie about just to cover up what happened. That, or the other twin could be Boone’s brother — fraternity or otherwise. We have virtually no details about Pete, and he’s never around when the killings go down. We know that his role in the series has to be something bigger than what it is if he’s been around this long. Either way, Grace’s whole world is going to be turned upside down. After all, they did make the cutest How to Lose A Guy in 10 Days couple costume ever. What a shame.

Chanel No. 5 has taken more verbal abuse than anyone else this season. Who else’s lady parts have been accused of having teeth? Right, no one else. If I were Libby, I’d want to kill everybody. She has been the victim of some red devil harassment, but at this point, who hasn’t? She’s got the motive and the certified weirdo status, per Chanel’s description, so she’s just as good a candidate as anyone.

I don’t love Grace for the killer, but she does have a wild backstory when it comes to her mother, and the details are murky. We’ve heard different sides from everyone, so who’s to say it’s not a cover up for the fact that she is actually one of the bathtub babies? Grace is an unlikely candidate for a killer, but she sure has enough motive to get in that costume and get her revenge.

Chad is stupid, brutish, and obsessed with death. Remember his moments in the graveyard? Yeah, dude is creepy. Just like Pete before him, he could be the ‘brother’ of Boone in a frat way instead of an actually-related way. I feel like Chad would kill just for fun, so I wouldn’t count him out of the murder race yet. Plus, anyone who wears that many pastels at once is sick in the head. Trust.

Her dad was literally Charles Manson, so like, there’s that. Outside of that creepy past, No. 3 seems to keep a little too cool in the chaos of everything. I feel like she’d be a wildly good partner in crime, even if it was just to plan things out. Perhaps the killer isn’t even really a killer per se, but a criminal mastermind who directed Boone and Gigi in a grand plan to get revenge on the savage greek life system that made all this happen in the first place.

Okay, I’m stretching here, but who would be more resentful of sorority girls than the sister who has to deal with an endless parade of them? We’re running out of university students who could be the killer, so why not guess that it’s someone outside of the campus. It could be anyone! All I know is that when we do find out who the killer is, we will quite literally be screaming.
