Let’s get right to the meat of the matter here. The killer is not Abby’s dad, despite what Madison has to say about who kidnapped her. First of all, did Madison ever see Abby’s father, or did she simply know her father was “the sheriff?” Could it be that the kidnapper was simply dressed as a sheriff or a police officer?
Secondly, it’s way too soon for a killer to be revealed. We won’t know until the third-to-last episode at the earliest — we’ve got more than that left to sit through.
Lately a lot of commenters have been guessing that the late (or, as they seem to indicate, presumably late) Booth is behind all of the killings. I have to admit that for a split second I thought this might be a valid guess, but just think about the episode where he shot himself for a minute. He was scared and assumed himself alone the whole time, plus he had the money all to himself. Why, as the killer, would he be afraid? The only way it makes sense is if he has a split personality, and I just hate the idea of a split personality when it comes to a killer’s motives.
My top picks so far for the killer are Maggie the innkeeper and Jimmy. Maggie is just too “what the hell are you still doing here” to not be something more to the story. Jimmy just fits well when you think of his whereabouts during all of the killings.
Interesting about Booth, because it really has been the only accidental death so far … but does that have to mean something? Let’s tie this into my new theory.
Is there anyone in the house who said Abby could be Wakefield’s kid, like, I don’t know, three episodes ago? Yeah, that would be me. Now that I’m done patting myself on the back (and I still think there’s going to be a long-lost relative), I’m going to revise my theory a bit.
We learned in the journal that Sarah had an affair with Wakefield and had his child, but what we don’t know is when. In a flashback, Sarah told Abby about the bad boys in her past, of which Wakefield is obviously one. So let’s say for a moment that Sarah gave birth to a bouncing baby boy before she even met the sheriff — Booth perhaps. He’s pissed about something….
It’s still got something to do with money, money, money. Shane asks Trish’s dear old step-mom, Katherine, what her inheritance looks like, and then she’s dead? Somehow the Wellington millions are going to be connected to Wakefield’s and Sarah’s love child. Agatha Christie would totally do that.

I am really wondering if good ole Dad (aka the sheriff) and Maggie aren’t in it together…. She seemed all too eager to talk to Madison after she was found. I don’t think Abby is Wakefied’s child… but one od the survivors is…Shane was awfully accusatory…. hmmmm
Lucy, after she fell into the pit, was burned alive :(
I DO THINK THAT ABBY HAS A LONG LOST BRO.. OUT THERE AND IT GOOD EVEN BE THE GROM..OR AS YOU SAID BOOTH. THINK ABOUT IT THERE BEST FRIENDS ALL THERE LIVES AND NEVER GOT TOGETHER JUST LIKE BRO AND SIS
I think it is Henry, the groom. He brought everyone there for the wedding. It is also obvious that he killed J.D. I know they are trying to make it look like Jimmy, but Abby’s dad had a criminal file on him, yet still wanted Abby to be with him, so he asked Wakefield to spare him.
Madison DID see Abby’s dad when they played cards while he was questioning her earlier in the series. But I agree that it can’t be him, too early, and too easy. How did someone impersonate him well enough to fool Madison? I guess we’ll find out.
I also tend to think it may be Henry due to the fact that 1, he couldn’t explain how he got the cuts on his arm, and 2, he seemed to freak out and almost go into a trance during the fight scene at the inn last week. They could be setting us up for a “black out, didn’t know what I was doing” type of killer, but that would be a little lame.
The killer is not Maggie as she and the sheriff both die in tomorrow’s episode along with both State Guards that show up. Jimmy and Cal are injured and might die. Check out Wilkipedia as it shows you the death chart up including who dies tomorrow.
Thanks for the massive spoiler there… :(
OMG. the spoiler aint so bad! but damn it. the ending of episode 10 was so eff-ed up. it totally made all our theories crap. we should create our very own harper’s island. we’re far more creative!
i called abbey being wakefields kid on day 1 of the series. if you watch the opening credits the newspaper said “ANOTHER WAKEFIELD?” and you just now called it 3 episodes ago… y’all are slacking. my list of people still are
1.Cal
2. Henry
3. Booth
not in any order. Booth seemed so quiet in the beginning that i figured he was the murderer. But when he “died” i was thinking otherwise. However, because it was an accidental death, it made me think. I’m just pissed cause they aren’t killing enough people.
I just can’t see the killer being Booth even if he is alive. I mean, when he went missing, everyone suspected he went home to his mom so he’s obviously a mama’s boy. And since I think the killer is Henry, I think that Henry killed Malcolm for what happened to Booth since Malcolm was the only one there… and for the money he was burning I guess. I don’t know but I just can’t see Booth committing such violent murders. He just seems too soft and weak.
its not booth. i just cant see him killing all those ppl, plus-didnt malcom burry him?? i personally think its henery :( which sucks because i love him. The killer isnt Jimmy. They are trying to make it seem like it was him, sort of like what they did with Abby’s dad. And why would Abby’s dad make a deal with Wakefeild to save Jimmy if he was bad? Henery was gone for some of teh killings. like when he went to go find his friends trying to leave the island at the marina& the old deputy was killed. but who knows. maybe theres not even a second killer. why is wakefeild killign ppl anyway???
oh and might i just point out tht these ppl hav horrible aim??! they hav shot at wakefeild numerous times, mainly in the last episode, and nobody has hit him once! is he lik a magicain or something?? can he make bullets move!? how is it possible tht he wasnt hurt when sully&danny shot at him behind the door?
It’s Jimmy. Wakefield and Abby’s mom’s love child: Jimmy. What would drive a man to join a killing rampage with his long lost daddy? Uh finding out that the woman he has carnal feelings for is totes his sister. It’s Jimmy. Mark my words.
ok just saying but i think jimmy is wakefeilds kid and i think he has been helping him out it would only make sense because you never see jimmy when someone gets killed but that might be to obvious but he still has something to do with it ok seriously whats up with the stupid tunnles already i mean they dont make sense to me at all but whatever it should be an interesting 2 hour filnale
