For Summerville, a main antagonist would probably be someone who is bringing the weirdness to such a normal town, even going so far as to give the town's nickname "the most normal place in America" (or wherever it takes place). For such a character, the normal thing I think most people go for is either an all-powerful creature (like Bill Cipher) or some sort of middle-age male. This would be a chance to take an alternative route and go with a character who doesn't necessarily read as such. Perhaps even a younger female character, with her appearing completely normal. This can blend in to the town's normal lifestyle without arousing much suspicion, especially if she's been there for years beforehand and the people of the town know her. Imagine the surprise for both the readers and main characters Meg and Todd when they discover that Miss (insert name here) is actually the villain they're looking for!

As for Miss Mollie Benedict, I think a bit more backstory is needed to explain the cannibalism. I mean, most people don't go on a cruise and have it go so badly that they become cannibals. This might be a case of something having gone wrong. For example, if her parents were murdered and the killer tied her up and made her eat them. When the crew finally discovers what's been happening, she has developed a taste for human flesh. Not an all-powerful taste, but enough to cause occasional cannibalism.
