General Hospital Spoilers: Could Peter Have An Evil Twin Who Has Taken Over?

General Hospital spoilers tease that Peter August (Wes Ramsey) has changed so much in the last few months that he almost seems like a different person. Given twinning can be genetic, could the Peter who GH fans have seen for the last few months actually be a different person who’s slipped in – an evil twin?

General Hospital Spoilers – Even Peter August’s Hairstyle Is Different

General Hospital viewers will recall that even though Peter came to Port Charles as a man bent on revenge against his evil birth father, Cesar Faison, (Anders Hove), he was also rather shy. He did play a part in his father’s demise and accidentally played a part in his current girlfriend, Maxie Jones’ (Kirsten Storms) late husband’s, Detective Nathan West’s (Ryan Paevey) death, with Faison meaning to kill Peter but killing Nathan instead.

Then there was the rage of Nathan’s grieving mother, Liesl Obrecht (Kathleen Gati) tying Peter up in a cabin and torturing him, starving him, and then moving him to the stables on Spoon Island and tying him and Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) to a post and setting the stables on fire! Peter’s hair is even different – the old Peter had straight brushed back hair. The new Peter has curly hair. And the new, evil Peter would have killed Liesl before she could have knocked him out and drug him out of his room.

Another difference is the old Peter would never have hurt his mentor and second father, Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart) – the new one punched him in the gut at his most recent wedding attempt to Nina! General Hospital writers might want us to believe that evil Peter is the real Peter and that he was faking being nice – but really, evil Peter would not have been very nice to Liesl after she did that to him – he would have done a lot worse to her than framing her for his crimes! The question is, why hasn’t he?

GH Spoilers – Could An Evil Twin Have Slipped In With Maxie Jones Not Even Noticing?

There is such a marked difference between the old Peter and the newer, evil Peter that it doesn’t even seem like he could be the same person! It’s understandable that the old Peter would feel pressure from Shiloh Archer (Coby Ryan McLaughlin) who was blackmailing him – with his past – but would Maxie have really dumped him for something that happened so long ago?

Hiding one’s past because of being ashamed for it seems to speak of a better person than many are thinking Peter is now – and saying that he has always been a liar and a murderer all along. But could an evil twin have slipped in without Maxie even noticing? It is possible – especially if he brainwashed her in her sleep during the transition!

General Hospital may not have shown a complete backstory when Peter started turning dark and ordering hits – it could be that Peter’s evil twin was the one working with Helena Cassadine (Constance Towers) and kidnapped Drew Cain (Billy Miller) out of Afghanistan, while the less evil Peter did intend the “kidnapping” of Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) to the Boronsky Clinic a way to keep him safe, although it kind of backfired on him! What it boils down to, is the GH writers have written Peter into an evil corner that he may never be able to be redeemed from; giving him a previously unknown evil twin might be a way to do it!
