Season 5 of Only Murders in the Building has kept fans guessing from the very first episode! The mystery surrounding the Italian mob family, secret deals, and shocking deaths has made this season one of the most thrilling yet. While fans are still trying to figure out who killed Lester the doorman, the final episode — airing on October 28 — promises to answer that and maybe even bring another shocking death!

The show, starring Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez, is famous for ending every season with a big twist — usually involving a new murder. Fans know by now that when the Arconia goes quiet, someone’s about to be in trouble! So, who could be the next to die in the Season 5 finale? Let’s look at some possibilities!
Detective Williams
Detective Williams has always been a big help to Mabel, Charles, and Oliver — giving them inside police info for their crime podcast. But what if Season 5 ends with her death? Losing Williams would break the trio’s only link to the police and make their investigations even harder.

She’s been deeply involved in solving Lester’s case, which could put her in danger. The show has always been brave about taking risks — so her death might just be the next big twist!
Mayor Tillman
The new mayor, a big fan of the trio’s podcast, has been a fun addition this season. But new characters often face tragic endings in this show. If Mayor Tillman were to die, it would shake up the city and bring more fame — and chaos — to the podcast.

If he dies, it could make the group’s podcast go viral — but also put them in serious danger as they chase the truth.
Loretta — Oliver’s Wife
Loretta, played by the amazing Meryl Streep, has become one of the most loved characters. But her sudden return to the Arconia after her apartment fire seems suspicious. Could her fate take a dark turn?

Losing Loretta would be heartbreaking for Oliver and could make him the center of the next season’s mystery — maybe even investigating his own wife’s death!
Vince Fish or Uma Heller
Vince and Uma’s sweet love story could end tragically too. If one of them dies, it would remind us that even love can’t escape the Arconia’s dark secrets. Their deaths would bring both sadness and suspense to the story.
The Arconia Building Itself
The biggest twist of all could be the death of the Arconia — the building that started it all! With billionaire Camilla planning to turn it into a casino, fans fear that Season 6 might begin with the destruction of the beloved apartment complex.
The Only Murders in the Building finale will no doubt keep viewers on the edge of their seats. Just like in past seasons, we should expect the unexpected — because in the Arconia, danger is always just around the corner.
