* VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightTrialsAndTribulations has between one and [[spoiler:four]] antagonists for the final case of the original trilogy depending on how you count.

* ''VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorney'' Has between one and [[spoiler:four]] antagonists for the final case of the original trilogy depending on how you count.

* In ''TheIlluminatusTrilogy'' universe, [[WhoShotJFK John F. Kennedy was shot]] by [[ArcNumber five]] snipers simultaneously.

* This is one of the theories floated in the ''JesseStone'' novel and TV movie ''Stone Cold'', based on the fact that the bullets recovered from the victims came from two different guns. Turns out there's "[[GunsAkimbo one shooter, two guns]]," but she was helped by her husband.

* In the first ''Film/{{Scream 1996}}'', it turns out that there were two killers. This was also true in ''Film/{{Scream 2}}'', but by then it was expected. (However, ''Film/{{Scream 3}}'' [[MetaTwist had only one killer]]. But ''Scream 4'' returned with the duo of Ghostfaces.)

* In ''VideoGame/{{Persona 4}}'', there are actually ''three''. One copycat, one pawn who thought he was ''defeating'' the killer (while actually creating new victims) and then the original killer that orchestrated the whole scheme. There's also a ManBehindTheMan, who had nothing to do with the killings but caused them indirectly.

* In ''TheIlluminatusTrilogy'' universe, [[WhoShotJFK John F. Kennedy was shot]] by five snipers simultaneously.

* In the ''DeathNote'' manga (and anime), it's revealed that a second death note made its way to Earth. Light eventually takes advantage of this and works with accomplices more than once.

* Rather confusingly done in ''TheLongHalloween''. When the Holiday Killer is apprehended and revealed to be [[spoiler:Alberto Falcone]], he tells the police that there was ''another'' Holiday Killer, but he refuses to elaborate. Franchise/{{Batman}} interprets this as a reference to Harvey Dent aka Two-Face, who had killed Carmine Falcone on Halloween and thus (metaphorically) inherited Holiday's mantle. But in the very last scene, [[spoiler:Harvey's wife, Gilda, monologues that ''she'' was actually the one responsible for Holiday's first victims]]. Whether they were telling the truth, or had simply lost touch with reality due to grief, is not entirely clear.

* The Blue Paint killer in ''Series/{{CSI}}''. The first ep has the believed killer escaping execution due to more bodies being found, then he dies at the end. In the later ep, more cases popped up, and the group realized the executed man was just the apprentice. The guy captured in that ep was the real main killer. Both men did the crimes, though.

* The events in ''VisualNovel/UminekoNoNakuKoroNi'' are strongly hinted to be caused by two teams working independent of each other, one planning and one opportunistic. [[spoiler: The first one is the servants and one of the siblings (which one depends on the arc) lead by Yasu who plans the murders (the one among the sibling and a few of the servants think it's just a game) in order to become free from his/her fate or that Battler solves the case and finds out the truth. The other one is Kyrie who took a chance when the gold was found and seems to be the one behind most of the murders.]]

* ''{{xkcd}}'' has a cartoon proposing a [[GoldenMeanFallacy parodic compromise]] with the 9/11 "truthers": One of the twin towers was destroyed by a secret US government conspiracy and made to look like an Islamic terrorist attack... and the other tower actually was destroyed by Islamic terrorists. Both attacks happened on the same day by complete coincidence.

* Similarly, eventually it's revealed that there are two masterminds behind Monobear, the villain of ''VisualNovel/DanganRonpa'', collectively known as Super High-School Level Despair. [[spoiler: There's a subversion, though: the mastermind who was manually controlling the bear murdered her accomplice early in the story, by baiting her into breaking the rules. This was done to hide the fact that they had swapped identities.]]

* In the first ''Film/{{Scream 1996}}'', it turns out that there were two killers. This was also true in ''Film/{{Scream 2}}'', but by then it was expected. (However, ''Scream 3'' had only one killer.)

* In the first ''Film/{{Scream}}'', it turns out that there were two killers. This was also true in ''Scream 2'', but by then it was expected. (However, ''Scream 3'' and ''4'' have only one each.)
* Used in ''Film/HellNight''. A bit odd example as the legend that surrounds the setting tells about one "deformed guy hiding in the house", and doesn't explain who the second deformed guy is.

A type of reveal where misdeeds depicted in the work were in fact committed by two inviduals (man or beast), either separately or working together.

* In the sex comedy ''Video Vixens'' a film-within-the-film, an X-rated ''Dragnet'' parody, involves a serial rapist who is actually identical twins; one would go out raping while the other is seen in public doing something mundane as an alibi. The next night they'd [[TwinSwitch switch places]]. (Yes, despite the description, it's a comedy.)

* In ''Videogame/{{Persona 4}}'', there are actually ''three''. One copycat, one pawn who thought he was ''defeating'' the killer (while actually creating new victims) and then the original killer that orchestrated the whole scheme. There's also a ManBehindTheMan, who had nothing to do with the killings but caused them indirectly.

* The Hillside Strangler turned out to be the Hillside Stranglers, Angelo Buono and his cousin Kenneth Bianchi. The police in that case had actually guessed beforehand that they might be dealing with two killers, thinking that two men would have an easier time carrying and dumping bodies around Los Angeles suburbs.
