In Revelations, it was revealed that Piper Shaw was the one behind the killing spree who was mainly targeting Emma and Maggie Duval for giving her up for adoption.

Physical Appearance

Piper's Accomplice
It was revealed in Revelations that Audrey Jensen had a secret connection to Piper Shaw in the 2015 Lakewood Murders, but it was revealed in Jeepers Creepers that she only brought Piper to Lakewood and therefore, didn't help her.

In When a Stranger Calls, it was revealed that Kieran Wilcox was Piper's actual accomplice, and was carrying out a new killing spree to avenge her, but was unsuccessful and put in jail. In Halloween, Kieran and his Prison Guard were murdered in the courthouse by the Third Killer.

Buck 120
The first killer's weapon of choice is a Buck 120 Bowie knife. She kills most of her victims with it, however, some victims were murdered in other ways.

Voice Changer
The first killer uses a voice changer to conceal his actual identity's voice. Similar to Roman Bridger, she can mimic several voices, as can be seen in In The Trenches when she tricks Emma into coming to Will's house so she could trick Emma into causing his death.

Phone
The first killer uses a smartphone to contact her victims, often teasing them. She texts, calls and direct messages them, typically right before committing a murder.
