Abigail’s empty coffin rocks Salem: her “death” may have been faked. Discover how this explosive twist threatens the DiMera legacy and what could come next.
Abigail’s Empty Coffin Stuns Salem
Abigail Deveraux DiMera—beloved daughter of Jack and Jennifer, devoted wife to Chad, and a key member of the DiMera clan—may not be dead after all. The harrowing discovery of her empty coffin has sparked a wave of shock, grief, and wild speculation. Could she still be alive?
A Death That Traumatized Salem
Three years ago, Salem mourned as Abigail was brutally murdered in the DiMera mansion—this at the hands of the dangerous Clyde Weston. Her death shattered her family, fractured hearts across Salem, and left viewers mourning one of the show’s brightest characters
But just as healing seemed possible, the grave revelation: Abigail’s coffin was empty.
An Empty Coffin—More Than a Mistake
In Salem, an empty coffin is never accidental—it’s a message. And the underlying message here is that Abigail may still be very much alive. Given Days of Our Lives’ history of dramatic revivals (hello, Stefano!?), this twist has the potential to redefine everything.
Was It Clyde All Along?
One theory gaining traction: Clyde faked Abigail’s death. But why? Control. Revenge. Power. He may have abducted her, holding her in a hidden location as a manipulative ploy against the DiMeras—perhaps as leverage or retribution. Imagine Abigail trapped, waiting for rescue.
The Family Moved On—Or So It Seemed
Chad has tried to move forward, even romantically with Cat, while still visibly weighed down by Abigail’s absence. Their children grow up motherless, and Jack and Jennifer have reluctantly come to terms with their daughter’s presumed fate. But what if that peace was built on lies?
Clues in the Shadows
Recent plotlines suggest a broader conspiracy at play. Clyde’s coma conveniently silences potential confessions at a critical time. Meanwhile, strange events around Salem—including whispers about the DiMera legacy, eerie sightings, and cryptic dreams—suggest someone is pulling strings from the darkness.
A Heart-Wrenching Love Triangle in the Making
Chad’s new relationship with Cat adds another layer of complexity. She’s beautiful, enigmatic, and now emotionally intertwined with a man still mourning his supposed widow. If Abigail returns, expect fireworks as love, loyalty, and heartache collide.
Marci Miller’s Return: The Reaction Fans Crave
Marci Miller, the actress who portrayed Abigail, departed on good terms—and fans have long hoped for her return. Bringing her back now would deliver a powerhouse moment: emotional, sensational, and Emmy-worthy. Her chemistry with Billy Flynn (Chad) remains electric.
What’s at Stake for Salem?
-
Chad may have to choose between a familiar past and painful progress.
-
Jack and Jennifer would experience overwhelming joy—but laced with guilt for letting hope fade.
-
The DiMera empire could collapse—or surge anew as Abigail returns to reclaim her birthright.
What Could Be Next?
Will Abigail orchestrate her own escape? Will someone come to her rescue? Could she be manipulated, missing years of her life? Was she brainwashed—or even had a child while in captivity? Each possibility only deepens the mystery.
