A shocking news for Emmerdale fans: a legendary figure of the Dales village will be gone forever, and that death is believed to be directly related to Celia Daniels.

Not just an “exit”, but a dark tragedy, opening the darkest period in the history of the show.

The story begins when one rainy morning, people discovered the body of a long-time character – who used to be a pillar of the community – lying next to the field rented by Celia.

The scene was littered with contract documents, and bloodstains along the path leading straight to her barn.

The police quickly narrowed down the area, and the first name on the list of suspects was none other than Celia.

However, as always, Celia was always one step ahead. When questioned, she appeared calm, providing a “perfect” alibi. But the astute audience noticed: the evidence was prepared… too perfectly. Behind the scenes, rumors spread quickly that Celia had arranged this death in advance, to eliminate the only person who dared to stand up to her in the land dispute.

Meanwhile, the Dales community was plunged into mourning. Moira Dingle burst into tears, Paddy sat silently for hours, and Bob Hope – who had believed Celia – almost collapsed. But what made the audience shiver was Celia’s ambiguous smile as she watched the funeral procession: half grief, half complacency.

Some further details were revealed: Robert Sugden discovered a bloody cloth in Celia’s warehouse; Aaron began to suspect and secretly investigate. However, Celia knew it. She sent Aaron an envelope containing a photo – in it, Aaron was holding a knife with his own fingerprints. “Who do you want to blame?” – the scrawled text left Aaron speechless.
