Top 5 Theories About Ben's Killer in 'Only Murders in the Building' Season 3 Stir Drama

The Mysterious Murders and My Wild Theories: Only Murders in the Building Season 3

Another opening, another… murder?! The theatrical third season of Only Murders in the Building is ramping up, and holy moly, I still have no clue who the culprit is. But hey, that doesn’t stop me from shamelessly diving into the abyss of wild theories about who killed Ben Glenroy on Only Murders in the Building! Hold onto your seats, folks, because this is going to be a rollercoaster ride of speculations.

Loretta Durkin: A Star (and a Killer) is Born

Now, let’s start with the queen herself, Meryl Streep’s character, Loretta Durkin. She had a fiery fight with Ben on opening night, openly declaring her deep hatred for him. And guess what? His untimely demise conveniently works in her favor both professionally and personally. Coincidence? I think not. Oh, and did I mention the threatening message on the mirror written in lipstick? The phrase “f*cking pig” certainly supports the theory. Plus, let’s not forget the golden rule of crime dramas: the biggest guest star always did it! But hey, while Loretta seems like an obvious suspect, I have a sneaking suspicion that there’s more to the story. There are layers, my friends, layers!

Kimber Min: An Influencer Scorned

Ah, the crew seems convinced that Kimber is nothing but a red herring, and honestly, I’m leaning towards it too. That whole affair thing? Pfft, I have a different theory. Remember that footage from opening night where Ben said, “I want you so f*cking bad”? I think he was talking to a dang box of cookies! Those Schmackary’s cookies were tempting him, I’m telling you. Maybe they were even poisoned (to be determined, of course). But hold on tight, because Kimber mysteriously vanishes from the scene, raising all sorts of suspicions. Maybe Ashley Park’s character deliberately goes missing for a surprise murder reveal/return. Who knows? The plot thickens!

Tobert: Documenting His Own Dirty Work

Now, let’s talk about our boy Tobert. Can we take a moment to appreciate the sheer brilliance of naming characters Kimber and Tobert? The writing staff must have been having a blast! Anyway, I have my eyes on Jesse Williams’ character. What if he’s trying to create a true crime documentary, just like last season’s killer who wanted to start their own podcast? Remember when Charles and Oliver discussed how it would be “played out” if the killer turned out to be a woman, especially one cozying up to either of them? Could it be foreshadowing that the true killer is a guy who cozied up to Mabel? My gut says it’s possible, and he might be framing poor Jonathan.

Cliff DeMeo: Springtime for the Producer

Alright, buckle up for this one! So, you know Mel Brooks and Matthew Broderick are guest stars this season, right? Well, that got me thinking about The Producers. Matthew starred in the Broadway adaptation alongside Nathan Lane, another Only Murders in the Building alumnus. Now, bear with me. What if it’s a meta clue? The Producers is about swindling investors by intentionally ruining a musical. What if the person who killed Ben did it to tank the show? What if it was the producer, Cliff? Even Cinda knows that Death Rattle Dazzle is bound to flop. My theory? Cliff killed Ben, but then realized the musical was going to be so disastrous that it would fail anyway. Ah, the irony! Wait for it… Cliff might just return in the nick of time to get caught! You heard it here first!

Or Maybe…Multiple Killers?!

Hold your horses, folks, because this one will blow your minds. Since there were two murder attempts on Ben Glenroy, there’s a possibility that the killer came back to finish the job. But wait, there’s a twist! What if it wasn’t just one killer, but multiple killers? Picture this: Loretta as the first one, realizing her attempt was unsuccessful, freely expressing her disdain for the deceased. Then, Cliff steps in as the second killer. But hey, let’s not exclude Charles himself! Don’t you think one of the Arconia trio is bound to become a killer eventually? Oh, the tangled web we weave. With the third season’s complexity, it wouldn’t surprise me one bit if there’s a whole squad of murderers lurking around.

And there you have it, my dears—my wild and wacky theories about who murdered Ben Glenroy on Only Murders in the Building. Buckle up and join the crazy ride!
