As *General Hospital* continues to captivate its millions of viewers in 2025, fans have not only been glued to the screen,
but they have also come up with some incredibly creative and thought-provoking fan theories about the future of the show.
With the ongoing drama surrounding beloved characters, intense plot twists, and the introduction of new mysteries, there’s no shortage of speculation.
As the soap opera enters another year, here are some of the best fan theories that have got fans buzzing and eagerly anticipating what’s next for *General Hospital*.
One of the most talked-about theories is the potential return of Steve Burton’s Jason Morgan, who left the show in 2021.
While Burton’s departure was heartbreaking for fans of the character,
the theory suggests that Jason could make a dramatic return via a long-lost twin, a common trope in soap operas. Fans point to the fact that the *General Hospital* writers love to create twists involving long-lost family members and hidden secrets. With so many characters tied to the Corinthos family, there’s speculation that Jason’s twin could be out there, waiting to be revealed. This would allow for a seamless return for Burton, reuniting with his *GH* family and reigniting the drama that Jason Morgan’s presence brings.
The Hook Killer storyline has been one of the most chilling and suspenseful arcs in recent months. As multiple residents of Port Charles have fallen victim to the unknown killer, theories have flourished about who might be behind the attacks. While some fans have speculated that someone like Esme Prince or a returning villain such as Heather Webber could be the culprit, a new and more surprising theory has emerged: What if the Hook Killer is someone closer to home, such as Ava Jerome or Carly Corinthos? Both women have complicated relationships with the people around them and could have the motive to take matters into their own hands. Fans are excited by the idea that the killer could be someone they least expect, making for an even more shocking revelation when the truth comes out.
