Hmmm, I like this crack!theory - everything would make way more sense with Patch as the antagonist in a horror novel. In the horror!Hush,Hush the reason Patch is stalking Nora is that he's planning for her to be his new human vessel (the whole kill-a-human-to-get-re-angeled thing doesn't exist, since that's just silly). Maybe Jules is getting harder to control, maybe Patch has driven him insane and that makes him less-than-optimal as a vessel. Anyways, that explains why he's spending so much time on Nora - he's trying to persuade her to become his vessel, but since he's so creepy, Nora still has doubts even though he's manipulating her mind.
Then Jules enters the picture and shows Nora the truth. With his cover broken, Patch kidnaps Vee and demands Nora come to the school and be his vessel or else he'll hurt Vee. Jules and Nora team up to kill him and Jules probably dies in the confrontation, leaving Nora alive but suffering the after effects of having her mind manipulated, not knowing what's real and what's not.
