The Black Widow- Theories

Who is the mysterious Lady in Black/ Black Veil/ Black Widow?

Theory #1: Melissa

A lot of fans think that Melissa could be BW. She has the same body (very skinny) and she was not at Wilden's funeral, although she did know him. Plus, Melissa is the only Widow on the show since Ian died in season 2. Maybe Melissa didn't want anybody to know that she's in town, so she wore the black veil. And it could be possible that she was somehow connected to Wilden, but didn't want anybody to know about that, too. In any case Melissa is very creepy and she is definitely involved with this whole -A/BW thing.

Theory #2: Somebody's twin

I think this is the most likely theory. A lot of cast and crew members confirmed that somebody will have a twin but it's not Alison like in the books. I could imagine that the BW was either connected in some way with Wilden or she is watching the Liars. Maybe she's #bigA or she is helping the Liars. That would be awesome! If #bigA is the bad twin we already know and the BW is the good twin that we didn't meet yet. This is definitely my favorite theory!

Theory #3 Someone who's "dead"

Recently I read many theories about Maya not being dead. That would be so insane if she's BW. THAT would be a really good reason to wear a mask and a veil so that nobody can recognize her. Remember, we never saw her body! Could it be that Maya is actually alive and helping the Liars? Because I don't see any motive why she would want to hurt them...
Of course it could be a twin of somebody who's dead, too, like Bethany Young's twin.



Black Widow's mask is burned on one side, that could be a connection to the fire in 3x24. Could Red Coat had change her outfit after she lost the Red Coat and it burned? It might be a clue that the BW was present at the fire or somehow connected? Do you think BW is really burned in her face or is it just the mask?

Since we know that CeCe killed Wilden, I could imagine that she went to his funeral incognito. But I don't know why she would threaten the Liars.

So how you can see, I'm quite sure that The Black Widow is a good person and probably the twin of #bigA. What do you think?
