Emmerdale's eerie plot that has seen Noah Dingle become obsessed with his ex-girlfriend Chloe Harris will soon escalate it seems.
The teen's behaviour has sparked concern, but now the pair will take centre stage during the soap's big flashforward week.
While little has been confirmed, it's said the scenes will reach a "crescendo", as Noah's behaviour worsens.
Just months ago, Noah turned on her when she cheated on him with Jacob Gallagher, before ending their romance.
Noah lost it as she refused to reconcile, and became verbally aggressive while also throwing something at her.
Last month, Noah tried to get back with Chloe again, clearly not letting it drop - just as she hoped to embark on a romance with Nate Robinson.
In recent scenes, viewers saw Chloe getting cosy with Nate again - despite planning to go to a gig with Noah.
Noah is now set to target Chloe, with producer Laura hinting there was much more to come from the plot.
Speaking of what was ahead, Laura briefly told The Mirror and other press: "So, as we've said before, we see Noah's obsession with Chloe reach a bit of a crescendo."
Laura remained coy over the plot and didn't give any more information, which must mean there's a lot being held back.
It follows fans predicting things will take a dark turn, as he sought revenge on her in recent scenes.
After rumbling her lies he confronted her before appearing to record her, with it clear he wasn't going to let things drop.
Now, some viewers fear Chloe could be killed in a horrifying twist, or that Noah could assault Chloe as his behaviour worsens.
One viewer said: "Noah is going to turn in to Norman Bates within 24 months."
A second asked: "Is Noah gonna be the next Dales murderer?!"
"Noah’s going all psycho now ffs," a third fan commented, as another said: "I’m seeing the next village serial killer."
The comments kept coming too, with another tweet reading: "You can just see noah committing a sexual assault on chloe."
