Coronation Street Fans Predict Megan's Murder by Sam in Shocking Twist
Viewers of the long-running ITV soap opera Coronation Street are buzzing with theories that Megan Walsh is destined for a grim fate, with her death potentially sealed in an upcoming storyline. Fans have rumbled a shocking twist, suggesting that Sam Blakeman could be the killer in a brutal murder plot set to unfold later this month.
Megan Walsh's Troubled Past and Potential Demise
Megan Walsh is one of five characters rumoured to be killed off in a whodunnit scenario, adding suspense to the show's narrative. Her character has been embroiled in controversy after being exposed as a child groomer who sexually abused her teenage pupil, Will Driscoll. Despite both Megan and Will denying the allegations, with Will manipulated into believing they are in a romantic relationship, the truth was first uncovered by Sam Blakeman.
This revelation led to Megan and Will targeting Sam, with Megan making vile threats and attempting to frame him for spying. Will also pretended to be Sam's friend to keep him compliant, and both accused Sam of lying when the abuse came to light. The ongoing deception and stress have taken a severe toll on Sam's mental health.
Sam Blakeman's Mental Health Struggles and Escalating Crisis
Sam has been grappling with the fallout from the lies and exam pressures, which have negatively impacted his well-being. He has misused ADHD medication, resulting in a hospital dash, and continues to struggle with his mental state. Recently, he accused Will of harassing him with menacing behaviour and sinister threats over the phone, though Will has denied these claims.
Fans are now convinced that Sam is hallucinating as he spirals further into distress. This has sparked a new theory that could see the situation escalate dramatically, with Sam unexpectedly turning into a killer. Given Megan's potential death later this month, viewers speculate that Sam might kill her by accident.
Fan Theories Point to Sam as the Accidental Killer
Believing Sam is suffering from psychosis and imagining threats, such as Will chasing him, fans wonder if he will experience similar hallucinations involving Megan. The theory suggests that Sam could attack or even kill Megan, believing he is in danger without realising his actions. Social media has been abuzz with speculation, with one fan posting, "My gut feeling is it will be Megan and Sam is the killer."
Another fan elaborated, "I still think it’s Megan that dies. At one point I thought Maggie would be the killer but with Sam’s psychosis storyline, I wouldn’t be surprised if he ended up snapping and killed her without realising it." A further comment read, "I didn't think about Sam accidentally killing Megan. If he really is hallucinating so vividly, I could definitely see him accidentally killing her to get her away from him, even if he doesn't realise he's done it."
One fan posed a legal angle, writing, "What if Sam kills Megan because he's in a state of psychosis and it's lining up a storyline of 'manslaughter by way of reduced capacity'?? What then?!" Another agreed, "My theory changes every day do we reckon Sam is gonna kill Megan."
Coronation Street continues to air weeknights at 8:30pm on ITV1 and ITV X, keeping audiences on the edge of their seats with these dramatic developments.
