Emmerdale fans are worried a killer could be lurking in the villagers’ midst after spotting some pretty eerie clues.

This week, it was revealed that Tom King’s mum had passed away. Desperate to keep it a secret from his girlfriend Belle Dingle, the news soon came out and left Belle reeling. On Tuesday (October 24), she rang into work for Tom and said he wouldn’t be coming in – only for her boyfriend to explode at her.

Though Vinny warned Belle people deal with grief in different ways, fans on social media are worried the clues are pointing to something more sinister. Taking to X – formerly known as Twitter – some theorised that Tom might have murdered his own mother, or that she was killed by someone close to him.

Eagle-eyed fans will remember Tom being beaten up by a mysterious lad a few months ago. He clammed up when Belle pressed him for answers, and viewers are just as confused over the whole incident. One thing was clear, though – that he knew his attacker.

One social media user has now suggested: “Tom has definitely murdered his mum… why else would he be so shifty? Or maybe the lad who beat him up?? #Emmerdale.” While another issued an urgent warning: “#Emmerdale Tom’s mum murdered maybe? Belle watch out, you’re in trouble!”

Someone else said: “I can’t work out if ‘Tom’ is a really rubbish actor or if there’s a dark side to him…” As a fourth social media user said: “Is Tom a sociopath? Very cold about his mum’s death. No feelings.”

“Tom’s mum has died… but what else is he hiding?” another fan wondered. And someone else echoed: “Tom’s mum has died and he’s not told Belle? Maybe he thought she would think he had done it!”

Meanwhile, other fans are sure they've spotted something suspicious going on with another village resident – newcomer Abby. First heading off on a date with David, she later met up with his son Jacob after David was keen to 'let her down gently'.

But fans think there's something "sinister" about Abby – and think she could be hiding a dark secret. One suggested: "Abby seems like she’d have some weird fetishes and a sex dungeon."

Someone else said: "I like Abby, I think she'd make a great character in Emmerdale but they've gone & given her a snort!"
