General Hospital Spoilers: Is Charles Shaughnessy Bringing Back Victor Cassadine?

General Hospital (GH) spoilers reveal that Victor Cassadine was referenced by a former flame yesterday which in soapland means a possible return from the dead. Fans will remember Days of our Lives actor Thaao Penghlis (Tony DiMera) in the role but could Charles Shaughnessy, also from DOOL, be playing a recast role?

While Thaao has been more active recently on the NBC sudser, Shaughnessy’s character Shane Donovan has not been seen.

Thaao has also been filming for the Days of Our Lives Beyond Salem miniseries on NBC’s Peacock.  Charles Shaughnessy is on contract with General Hospital and debuts in September.

On GH the Cassadine family is also in disarray and having Obrecht mention Victor could mean the family grows its presence in Port Charles.

Shaughnessy is in the right age range to be a recast Victor Cassadine and we can see him playing a darker shade of gray than he did as Shane on DOOL. Fans with good hearing know that there have been several references made to Victor recently.

Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Chavez), also a recast, used the name “Victor” when he was going incognito after coming back to town. At the time he presented himself as humble Victor to Trina Robinson (Sydney Mikayla) but since then has gotten his entitled swag back in spades.

Spencer also talked about Victor to Liesl Obrecht (Kathleen Gati) and Scott Baldwin (Kin Shriner) in the August 11 episode. Jealous Scott then questioned Liesl about Victor.

Liesl assured Scott that he was top dawg while Victor and Cesar Faison (Anders Hove) were dog meat to her.

So what do you think GH fans? Is it true that where there’s smoke there’s fire? If so then it looks like we could be seeing Victor back on the canvas. Is he somehow tied to Peter August’s (Wes Ramsey) mysterious disappearing corpse?
