SHOCKING THREATS AND HOLIDAY HEARTBREAK ROCK SALEM

In a stunning turn of events, Ava Vitali’s mysterious stalker situation has taken an unexpected twist. While Salem’s resident troublemaker Kristen DiMera seemed like the obvious culprit behind the threatening texts warning Ava to stay away from Brady Black, evidence suggests we’re dealing with a far more cunning enemy!

STEVE JOHNSON TAKES ON A PUZZLING CASE

Despite their complicated history, Steve Johnson has agreed to investigate the threatening messages terrorizing Ava. What makes this case particularly intriguing? The fact that Kristen’s denial actually rings true! As Salem residents know all too well, Kristen has never been one to hide behind anonymous threats – she’s more likely to storm in and cause chaos face-to-face. This revelation has everyone wondering: who else in Salem has it out for Ava?

HEARTWARMING REUNIONS AMID THE DRAMA

While mystery swirls around Ava, across town at the DiMera mansion, a touching reunion took place between old friends Kristen and Lani Grant. The pair shared precious moments catching up, with Lani showing off adorable photos of her twins while marveling at how much little Rachel Black has grown. It’s moments like these that remind us even Salem’s most complicated characters have a softer side!

Paulina, Abe, Lani, and Eli are pulling out all the stops for this festive occasion. But that’s not all – Abe is spreading even more holiday cheer by donning a Santa suit to bring joy to the hospital’s youngest patients!

MARLENA’S GROWING CONCERN

However, not everyone in Salem is feeling the holiday spirit. Marlena Evans is struggling with John Black’s absence during what should be a joyous season. In an emotional conversation with Brady, she confessed how deeply she misses her husband, who’s away on a special ISA mission. But what Marlena doesn’t know yet is that this mission will take a devastating turn – John is about to go missing, leading to what could be one of Salem’s most heart-wrenching storylines.

CO-PARENTING COMPLICATIONS

Meanwhile, Brady is trying to navigate his own complicated situation. While he plans to give Rachel a special Christmas present, tension continues to simmer with Kristen. These two will need to find a way to co-parent peacefully for their daughter’s sake, but in true Salem fashion, that path won’t be easy!

WHAT’S NEXT IN SALEM?

As Christmas approaches, Salem residents are dealing with everything from mysterious threats to missing loved ones.
