Who’s Bloody Rose in Pretty Little Liars: Summer School? She Might Be Connected to This Surprising Character

Rose Waters

This might be a little on the nose, but Rose Waters seemingly seeks retribution for the incarceration and subsequent death penalty of Archie Waters. “Religious and uses knife like Bloody Rose. Producers keep saying it’s her and we already know which is so different for tv. Also she slut shames just like Bloody Rose’s targets,” one Redditor theorized, though not everyone is convinced.

“I do think we’re in a likely world where Bloody Rose is just Rose Waters—especially with how Archie was approached in Season 1. It was more the mystery around them rather than the mystery of who they actually are,” they observed.

Martha Beasley

A second fan theory is Martha Beasley because she too is mentally unwell and uses a knife like Bloody Rose. “Wants her daughter to be a virgin, just like Bloody Rose kills those who aren’t. Has motive to start now since she had hella trauma, killed her husband, and lost her daughter,” a Redditor observed.

Another commented: “Mrs Beasley is a top suspect because of how similar she and Rose Waters are, both had twins and have mental issues and one of their twin children died at a party by falling, despite Angela killing herself and Karen was pushed, and they are handy with a knife and not afraid of using it.”

Dr. Sullivan

A lot of fans are convinced that Dr. Sullivan, who’s a therapist chosen by the Liars’ parents originally to help them deal with their seemingly obsessive thoughts, is actually Bloody Rose. “Bloody Rose is going to be Sullivan. I don’t know how Roberto plans to pull this twist off, but If you look closely at the final shot where rose grabs Imogen by the neck, and zoom on the eyes, they’re the exact same as [actor] Annabeth Gish’s eyes,” writes one fan on Reddit.

Another fan agreed. “I think you’re right on this one. There could also be two of them working together as a twist too!” they wrote.

Chip's mom

Another popular theory for who Bloody Rose is: Chip’s mom, Mrs. Langsberry. “I genuinely think Bloody Rose is about to be Chip’s mother 💀 She’s going after the liars to avenge her sons death, the way Clanton / Archie did for Angela,” wrote one fan. “That would make sense especially if the pattern of killing sexually active teenagers continues,” one agreed.

One fan posed a question: “I still didn’t saw the new episodes of season 2 but would this mean she believe that her son Chip is innocent of what he was accused, does she think he was not a rapist?” to which one viewer replied: “Unfortunately even in real life, there’s some mothers that will defend their rapist sons even if they do acknowledge what they did. I haven’t seen the new episodes yet, but it is possible that she knows and just doesn’t care.”

“I agree with you 100%, and that’s more reasoning for her to be BR. Only thing that confuses me is if it is Chips mom, why call yourself Bloody Rose Waters and pose as Archie’s mom?” another fan observed.
