Riverdale has been drawing out the suspense leading up to the reveal of the Black Hood's identity, but it looks like they won't be pulling a Pretty Little Liars on us. Madelaine Petsch said in a recent interview with Glamour that we're about to learn who this mysterious masked character is — and she already knows.

"I didn’t guess it," she said. "When I read it, it shocked me, but you won’t have to wait much longer. A couple more episodes and the mystery will be revealed."

The reveal wasn't as surprising to KJ Apa, though he admits it wasn't obvious. "I already knew," he said. "I guessed it. But everything is very…it’s hard to say."

So far, some people think the Black Hood is a member of the Cooper family — possibly Hal or Betty's long-lost brother. According to one theory, it's Penny Peabody, who is theorized to be Betty's biological mother extracting revenge on Alice for taking her daughter. Others think it could be Tall Boy or even, gulp, Sheriff Keller. Whoever it is, the good news is that the show won't leave us pouring over Reddit fan theories for long.
