Pretty Little Liars Fan Theories About "A"

fandom decided to throw even more our way. Here are five incredible fan theories about who “A” really is that might have you re-thinking your own theories!

It sounds hard to believe, right? You would never imagine that your favorite liar—with all of her hilarious jokes and and Hanna-isms—could be capable of being so…evil. But here is some of the evidence that Hanna could have a dark side:

-Aside from Mona, who became Hanna’s BFF after Ali went missing, Hanna has the biggest motive of any of the other liars. Ali tormented Hanna about her weight, and it’s pretty interesting that once Ali was gone, Hanna and Mona both became the “it-girls.” 

-She’s said a few times that she’s great at forging handwriting (she apparently forged her mother’s signature a number of times), has revealed that she is an expert at tailing people because she used to follow her dad when he was cheating on her mom, and never has an issue with telling the girls to lie about something. Could she be the one writing those mysterious notes and following the girls?

-Hanna is smarter than she makes herself seem. Sometimes her “dumb” lines seem forced and make absolutely no sense. In the fatal finale, Caleb finds a list of Ivy League colleges in Hanna’s car, and she reveals that she scored really high on the SATs, but tries to play it off by pretending she doesn\'t know how to say “SAT.” Come on!

-She didn’t shoot A. In season four when the liars went to New York, Hanna was aiming the gun right at A, demanding he/she take the mask off. She had more than one opportunity to shoot A, but she didn’t. Why not? Was she protecting hear team of “A” followers?

-Have you ever noticed in the opening credits that all of the liars stare directly at Hanna, while she stares off to the side? ~Secrets~

fans that aren’t convinced Emily Field\'s ex-girlfriend Maya is dead, because we never actually saw a body, and you know what happened when we never actually saw Ali’s body... Here are some other clues she\'s alive and on the A team:

-When Aria visited Mona at Radley Sanitarium, Mona uttered the ~cryptic~ message, “Miss Aria you’re a killer, not Ezra’s wife.” It turned out to be the acronym “MAYA KNEW.” Although the girls assumed it meant Maya knew about Nate (who confessed to killing Maya) stalking her, it seems very odd that on her website, Maya talked about being afraid of someone, but she never went to the police.

-She lived in Ali’s house and had access to her stuff. At one point before we learned that Ali was alive, we saw a blonde girl in Maya’s window. Could Ali have been visiting Maya? Or was Maya rocking that blonde wig everyone thinks A wore to kill Mona? The hair in this photo looks like it could be a wig... 

-When Maya was sent to True North, why was she acting so distant from Emily if she claimed to love her so much? She ignored most of Em\'s calls, then popped up mysteriously out of nowhere. Could she have been doing A’s dirty work during that time?

-Someone threw a lighter at the lodge the liars were in, setting it on fire. The lighter had an image of a compass pointing north. Could that be some sort of symbol for “True North?” AKA, did Maya set the lodge on fire?

It’s always the one you least expect, right? Here are some reasons Aria’s brother could be A:

-In a few episodes, we learn that Mike has broken into several homes. That’s very A-like of him.

-When Aria leaves to pick up Mike from his basketball practice, she learns he actually hasn’t been there in months. He’s always MIA, too, and so secretive about his personal life.

-Mike has a temper. Remember in season two when he went insane because his mother tried to take his laptop, and bruised her wrist in the process? Why was he so afraid of her taking his laptop? If you pay attention, you\'ll notice he always closes it whenever someone comes in the room.

-Lots of fans agree that A looks big behind that black hoodie, and could possibly be a strong, muscular guy. We know that Mike takes karate classes and is pretty fit, so that\'s a possibility.  

Although we know for sure that Toby was a part of the A team at one point, he claims it was to help the girls get info about A. Some fans aren\'t convinced though. Here\'s why:

-No one ever explained why Alison was wearing Toby’s sweater in the video before she “died.” Why were they meeting up? 

-His tattoo says “901 Free At Last.” That was also the day Ali disappeared (9/01). Coincidence?

-In season two, a waitress says to a person behind a black hoodie, “How are you doing pretty eyes?” Then, in season 3, the waitress says to Toby, “Seat yourself, pretty eyes.” Is pretty eyes just her nickname for Toby?

-In an interview, when asked if Toby had good intentions, writer Marlene King flat out said, “No.”

This has recently become a very popular theory. Could A be for Aria? The girls have said many times that Aria is the best liar, and Lucy Hale revealed last week that she is the only cast member who doesn’t know who A is! Here are some clues that have more and more people thinking A is short for Aria:

-In one of the first few episodes, Mona calls Aria “Big A.” A few seasons later, someone tweeted Marlene about who A could possibly be, begging her for a clue, and she responded “#BigA.” Sound familiar?

-Then there was that time when Hanna saw Aria running to a car in a black hoodie during Mona’s birthday party. Black hoodie = A’s favorite attire, of course. it could be that she was just hiding from her parents, because this was before anyone knew about Ezra, but the scene itself was sketchy. 

-And, remember the set of dolls that resemble the liars? Aria’s is dressed in a black hoodie. Coincidence?

-When Aria’s dad Byron planned to trap Ezra at a restaurant to catch him with his daughter, Aria texted Ezra to warn him—from an unknown number. Why was she texting from a blocked number? 

-As for Mona\'s clever acronym, it\'s hard not to be creeped out by the phrase, "Miss Aria you\'re a killer, not Ezra\'s wife." Couldn\'t she have said something else? To refer to Aria as a killer seems way too good
