As I suspected, Mercedes McQueen was (or at least seemed to be) murdered in last night's E4 Hollyoaks.
After blackmailing Freddie and Lindsey, having witnessed their kiss - and then ruining Carmel's funeral in her drunken state - Mercy was at rock bottom, with her family accusing her of stealing Carmel's ring and mum Myra saying she wished it were Mercedes who was dead.
Packing her bags after finding a ticket in her name to Alicante, Mercy assumed that Freddie had found the cash to send her on her way. But one sinister shadow and a swipe of a knife later saw Mercedes come face to face with someone who was about to kill her.
But was it just one shadow at the door?
Take a looks at these photos:
Speculation online has come up with the theory that we're being lead to believe Freddie's the culprit. As the shadow above definitely proves to look like him...
Yet in the one above here, the shadowy figure is wearing a hoodie and looks much shorter than Freddie.
Maybe Freddie was on his way to threaten Mercedes, as Lindsey had asked him to stop her spilling the beans to Joe, and stumbled across someone else getting there first and killing her.
He ran away looking shaken by what he'd just witnessed?
Or, knowing he could be the prime suspect, he cleaned up the mess left behind by the mystery murderer?
Hollyoaks fans have been guessing that the small frame of the mystery person could mean that Lindsey was behind Mercy's stabbing. I don't think this would be case... Or others are guessing at Silas' return? Or maybe it was Freddie and the other shadow witnessed him doing the deed or is just a red herring?
Jennifer Metcalfe has even spoken of the mystery around her exit, in a Story of Mercedes video released by Hollyoaks, Jen hinted that the exact details of what happened could stay under wraps for a while.
She said: "Mercedes's departure is totally shrouded in mystery. Running up to the week where she exits, she has really annoyed pretty much everyone in the village, so it's 'who's done it?' Who has she got involved with? What's gone on off-screen? Is it all as it seems?"

That tells me that the police will be going down the wrong path, should they accuse Freddie.
I'm looking forward to finding out what happens over the coming weeks. Are you?
