Main characters
Chanel Oberlin
Chanel Oberlin (Emma Roberts) is the incredibly egotistical, uncaring, self-centered and sociopathic president of Kappa Kappa Tau at Wallace University. She is suspected to have viciously burned her predecessor, Melanie Dorkus, after filling her spray tan tank with hydrochloric acid in retribution for her abuse towards her. Her cruel attitude and entitled personality, coupled with decades of shady activity in the sorority causes the Dean, Cathy Munsch, to revoke the charter, however Gigi intercedes and Chanel is horrified when she has to accept anyone who wishes to join Kappa which causes all of the other sisters and potential pledges, aside from her minions, to leave. She is the on and off girlfriend of Chad Radwell, the head of the Dickie Dollar Scholars fraternity. She harbors an intense hatred towards Chanel #5 and often insults her and also becomes suspicious of Hester who had been put through a major makeover to become Chanel #6. She was sent to prison after Chanel #5, under the control of Hester, had turned her in about the incident of Ms. Bean, who was unintentionally murdered by Chanel in a prank gone wrong. She has an intense anger towards Grace and Zayday after the latter decides to run for the president of Kappa Kappa Tau. The two were forced to become co-presidents after the votes are tied; Chanel then reveals that she deliberately wanted Zayday to become president to save herself from becoming a target of the Red Devil. She and the Chanels plan to expose Grace and Zayday as she believes that they are working with the Red Devil - all the while, the other Chanels plan to murder Chanel out of fear that she was the killer, which she reluctantly forgives them for. During her quest to prove that Grace is one of the killers, she unearths information about the true identity of Grace's mother and cruelly reveals it to her, but later apologizes and admits that she has an abusive mother herself. In "Black Friday", Chanel and her Chanels have an encounter with the Red Devil while shopping during the Black Friday sale. When Chanel is cornered by the Red Devil, Chanel is maimed with an arrow, before Denise Hemphill arrives, revealing that she is now the head of the police. After recovering, Chanel assumes that Dean Munsch is the Red Devil and plans with the Chanels and Zayday (and initially Grace, before being persuaded otherwise by Pete) to do away with her. However, all of her attempts are unfounded, including her last effort to drown her which is foiled. When she writes a long and cruel missive to the other Chanels because of their failure to help her in her last attempt in killing the Dean, the media takes hold of the said letter which ruins her reputation. She contemplates suicide, but was convinced by Zayday to keep fighting, thus inspiring her to bounce back. Part of this is faking an apology to Melanie and attempting to kill her, as Chanel thought that Melanie was the Red Devil, before Grace reveals the Red Devil is Hester.
In "The Final Girl(s)," Chanel and the other Chanels are arrested upon Hester claiming they were behind the Red Devil killings and are sent away to Palmer Asylum.

She then became a phlebotomist and believed that it could rehabilitate her image as her and the Chanels were hated by the public even though they were acquitted of the accusations. It is revealed that she is broke after being disowned by her wealthy parents and is living in a run down apartment alongside #3 and #5. Cathy Munsch offers Chanel a job as a medical student at the C.U.R.E Institute Hospital to which she accepts. Chanel becomes interested and starts dating Dr. Brock Holt and also assists him on cases.

Antagonists
Red Devil
The Red Devil (stunt performed by Riley Schmidt and Olga Wilhelmine) is the main antagonist of Season 1.
The Red Devil was the mascot of Wallace University until it was changed due to its association with the killings on campus. The Devils are both the children of the deceased Sophia Doyle: her son Boone Clemens and her daughter Hester Ulrich (as well as Pete Martinez (who would assist)) who were both raised by Gigi Caldwell/Jess Meyer in a mental asylum after the shocking suicide of their former guardian Amy. Throughout their time at the institution, the two were taught about murder and orchestrated a 20 year long killing plan against Kappa House. To not be suspected, the two went under disguises: Hester as a girl with severe scoliosis and had to wear a neck brace whilst Boone pretended to be gay and never enrolled at the school whilst his sister managed to get herself in due to her "neck deformity" and managed to find the costume who they stole of a mascot who was stabbed to death by Gigi. It is revealed that Hester mostly orchestrated the murders and Boone executed the killings.
On March 25, 2014, Hester and Boone (under the Red Devil costume) broke into Kappa and put hydrochloric acid in Melanie Dorkus' tanning spray which resulted in her being disfigured and the incident being blamed on Chanel Oberlin who rose to power as president and would later be framed alongside her minions for the Red Devil murders once the plan was complete and throughout the events, carefully put together evidence to frame them successfully. The killer first makes an appearance when The Red Devil (Boone) appears and kills Chanel #2 before going off to kill Tiffany, Shondell, Coney, Mandy, Dodger, Caulfield, Sam, Jennifer, Earl Grey and a random truck driver, kidnapping Zayday and recruiting Pete (who joined to find out about Hester's identity and killed Roger and a mall cop) to help him kill Gigi who constantly pressured Hester to get rid of her brother due to the sloppy kidnapping incident. However, Boone was fatally stabbed by Pete and died.
After her brother's murder, Hester started to don the costume and decapitated Gigi, stabbed Pete and forced a pizza delivery man to blow up Kappa which resulted in his death. It is also revealed that Hester turned on the fryer that resulted in Ms Bean's death. Her identity was revealed to Zayday and Grace who confronted her however she was found with a stiletto in her eye and blamed #5 before later defending herself by hiring a married couple to say that they are her real parents, even her real parents (Sophia Doyle and Wes Gardner) weren't on her record. The Chanel's were successfully arrested for the murders and sent to the same asylum that Hester and Boone grew up. Hester, now as the only survivor of the Red Devil team, ends her plan for revenge and the Red Devil conspiracy in January 2016. At the asylum, Chanel is awoken by a knife wielding Red Devil who was revealed to be her ex boyfriend Chad Radwell who dresses as the Devil to scare Chanel inside the hospital.
Green Meanie
The Green Meanie (stunt performed by Riley Schmidt) is the main antagonist of Season 2. The costume consists of green clothing and a monstrous horned mask.
The Green Meanie is described by some kids in an old legend to be a swamp monster that resided in the toxic swamp near the C.U.R.E. Institute Hospital.
The Green Meanie killer wears the costume worn by Dr. Mike on the night of October 31, 1985 where him and Nurse Thomas dumped a patient's body in the toxic swamp so they couldn't miss out on the Halloween party that was occurring upstairs. However, on that same night, a year later in 1986, the killer appeared and murdered the entire staff of the hospital including Dr. Mike and Nurse Thomas.
30 years later, the Green Meanie sneaks into the C.U.R.E. Institute Hospital and mostly kills people during the graveyard shift. The killer murders Catherine Hobart by decapitating her and then kills Tyler by burning his eyes with a laser (which was intended to be used to get rid of his warts) and slitting his throat during the surgery. He also attacks Cathy Munsch. However, she manages to defeat the killer and before she can take off the mask, the Green Meanie is scared away by Chanel #3 and Cassidy Cascade. The Green Meanie also kills Chad's friend Randal by slashing his chest and killing him (off-screen) and later the new cured patient Sheila by decapitating her with a machete and also injuries Chamberlain but doesn't hurt Zayday at all. Then not long after kills Chad Radwell by slashing his throat and hiding his body at the church which later falls down in front of Chanel at their wedding. Afterwards the Green Meanie later attacks Denise, however she's able to beat the killer and tries to shoot him but the killer escapes and later the Green Meanie stabs Chanel #5 in the back and when Denise comes to help the killer throws punch on her and electrocutes her with a defibrillator which kills her.
The Green Meanie is revealed to be Cassidy Cascade, who is the baby of Bill and Jane Hollis, and Ingrid Hoffel, who is the sister of Agatha Bean. Ingrid confronts Cassidy about his role as the Green Meanie and offers to become the brains of the operation, while he is the muscle. He accepts and they kill Chanel #9 together. In the ending, he gives her a Green Meanie costume too. However, there is a third Green Meanie, who is unrelated to Cassidy and Ingrid's killings.
