General Hospital Spoilers: Did A Dead Person Try to Kill Drew, And If So, Who?

General Hospital Spoilers claim a wild fan theory suggests one “dead” character might have returned with a vengeance — shooting Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) in a shocking twist!

With Drew gunned down this week, some fan speculation points to Sam McCall (Kelly Monaco), previously confirmed dead, joining the ranks of Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) and rumored Nathan West (Ryan Paevey) in faking her demise. If Sam is alive, what drove the ruse?

Perhaps Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) helped her escape danger or Drew’s post-Pentonville changes, which she was the first to notice. Or was it forced on her, leaving Jason stunned? If Sam pulled the trigger, can she stay hidden without revealing her “unalived” status, or will she be dragged into the light?

Sam’s Faked Death: A Protective Ruse?

Fans theorize Sam’s “death” was a calculated fake-out, orchestrated with Jason’s help to shield her from threats. Drew’s transformation after Pentonville — turning ruthless with affairs and blackmail — alarmed Sam, who spotted his darker side early.

If she staged her exit to investigate or escape his influence, it explains her low profile. Jason’s involvement fits his protective nature, but if someone else forced the fake death — perhaps WSB operatives or Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota) — he’d be as shocked as anyone.

This setup leaves Sam free to operate in shadows, potentially targeting Drew for his sins against her family.

GH Spoilers Spill This is Sam’s Revenge from the Grave?

If Sam shot Drew, it could be payback for his chaos — wrecking her daughter Emily ‘Scout’ Cain’s (Cosette Abinante) life and playing God with the Corinthos and Quartermaine clans.

Staying hidden post-attack means avoiding detection, perhaps by using disguises or allies like Damien Spinelli (Bradford Anderson) to cover tracks.

Without surfacing, she dodges scrutiny from Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) or Anna Devane (Finola Hughes), letting suspects like Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner) or Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) take the heat, but only for a time.

Still, a slip-up, like a witness spotting her, could force her reveal, blowing her “dead” cover wide open.

Fan Theories and Resurrection Ripple Effects

This “undead shooter” idea echoes Britt’s return and Nathan’s rumored comeback, adding layers to GH’s resurrection trope. If Sam is alive and guilty, her emergence could reunite her with Jason, but at the cost of trust — especially if he was in the dark.

Fans love the twist for its soapiness, but worry it diminishes her “death’s” impact. Will Sam stay shadowed if caught, or will Drew’s shooting pull her back into the fray? Do you think it’s possible that we’ll get Sam back already after nearly a year off-screen and dead?
