Mona Vanderwaal: The OG "A"
First up, we have Mona Vanderwaal, the original "A". Remember when we all thought she was just Hanna's quirky bestie? Surprise! She was behind the initial reign of terror in Rosewood.
Mona's motivation? She was tired of being invisible, of being "Loser Mona". Turning the tables on Alison and her crew was her way of getting revenge and becoming the queen bee.
