The Black Hood will continue to terrorize the small town of Riverdale, again. A recent update reveals that the story of the Black Hood is not yet over.
While Betty and the gang believe that serial killer is dead, it turns out he isn’t. The big bad is confirmed to return to the show.
The Black Hood, who was revealed to be the school janitor Svenson was seen shot dead by Sheriff Keller during the midseason finale episode titled “Silent Night, Deadly Night.” Betty is seen getting rid of all the things related to Black Hood but keeping the hood he gave her earlier.
For a long time, fans have been speculating that the Black Hood mystery is not yet over and the real Black Hood is still alive. It turns out fans are right and the real Black Hood is still on loose.
During the Riverdale panel at PaleyFest, Riverdale showrunner and creator Roberto Aguirre Sacasa confirmed that the show will be revisiting Black Hood storyline again.
“When we started, we had three likely suspects, so for the first half of the season, we were always dropping red herrings so we could pick [one of the three],” Aguirre-Sacasa said at the panel. “As we moved into the second half, and we get back to the Black Hood for the last few episodes, we always knew it wasn’t Svenson, [the janitor], but for the last 10 episodes or so, we’ve had a pretty clear idea and have been writing toward that.”
This is not the first time Aguirre-Sacasa has teased the return of Black Hood. As reported earlier, prior to the midseason premiere, the showrunner posted a tweet suggesting Black Hood may not be dead.
Fans know that Black Hood made his first appearance at the end of Season 1 when he shot Fred Andrews. Later, he has been responsible for an attack on Moose and Midge, the death of Geraldine Grundy and Robert Philips.
