Pretty Little Liars Season 6, who is the new "big bad"?

We're still months away from the return of Pretty Little Liars Season 6 and fans can't help speculating over the show's new "big bad". We here at melty are so curious that we decided to put on our detective caps and think about who the new villain could be, check out who made our list

Now that the long-drawn out A storyline is finally finito, Pretty Little Liars fans are wondering about the series' new "big bad". The summer finale ended with Spencer, Hanna, Aria, and Emily returning to Rosewood to help Alison escape from someone who is coming after her. They warn Ali: "He is coming," and "it's too late, he's already here." Dun dun dun! So who is this "he" that's chasing after Alison? Well it seems pretty obvious that "he" is the new "big bad". (We're really hoping they call this baddie something other than "he", even "A" is a better pseudo name than that.) Along with a mysterious new villain, Pretty Little Liars is getting a new intro to go along with the time jump and new direction of the show. After watching the show for six seasons, we're not naive - we know that the name and identity of the new baddie in Rosewood won't be revealed until the end of the season, or most likely the series. But that won't stop us from speculating who it could be. From what showrunner I. Marlene King has teased, the new "big bad" was involved in - if not responsible for - Mrs. DiLaurentis' murder, making them someone the PLLs knew from high school.

Lucas

King revealed Lucas will be back in action for Season 6B and that he's got a surprise to share. Alison was absolutely horrible to Lucas in high school, calling him Hermy the hermaphrodite. So it would come as no surprise if Lucas still harbored some ill-will towards Ali, even if she's changed her ways after the five-year time jump. Lucas hasn't been seen since the beginning of Season 5, the fact that he'll be back after the time jump must mean he contributes to the new storyline in some way. King wouldn't bring Lucas back for no reason, we have a feeling the showrunner has something big planned for Lucas, especially with that surprise of his.

Jason

For those of you thinking: "But Jason is Alison's brother, why would he come after her?" let us remind you that A turned out to be Ali's sister Charlotte. We're going to let our imaginations run wild for a second and think of a situation that would lead Jason to turn into a villain. Oh here's one: Jason's older brother, who his parents told him was imaginary, transitioned into a girl and dated him, but also nearly killed him a couple times as A, before eventually drugging and paralyzing him and forcing him to listen to her life story. It's possible that Jason could be so upset at the events that went down that he resents Alison for wanting or having a relationship with Charlotte. Although, Jason seems like a pretty understanding and reasonable guy; this is all just speculation.

Wren

Wren too is making a comeback to Rosewood, however Julian Morris, who plays Wren, currently stars in another series called Hand of God. Despite this hindrance, King has promised that Wren will make an appearance before the end of the show. And just like Cece, Wren doesn't need to be in a lot of episodes to be the "big bad". Viewers won't discover the villain's face until the end anyway. Throughout the episodes "he" will probably only be talked about in the third person or be disguised if "he" does show up to cause some trouble. Who do you think the new "big bad" could be?
