Days of our Lives spoilers for the week of December 22-26, 2025 tease Christmas miracles, festive frights, and a long-lasting Salem holiday tradition.
The DiMera Kidnapper Is…
After weeks of disappearing DiMeras, starting with Tony (Thaao Penghlis) and ending with Peter (Dan Gauthier, who recently dished on his daytime return), the person behind the crypt captives will finally be revealed on Monday, and it leaves The DiMeras fearing for their lives.
All we know is that someone has targeted specific DiMeras — Tony, Kristen (Stacy Haiduk), Chad (Billy Flynn), Theo (Tyler Joseph Andrews), EJ (Dan Feuerriegel), and Peter. But when the latter reveals a secret on Tuesday, could it be that he’s in on whatever’s going on?
It looks like the captives will spend Christmas Eve fighting to break free, while Rafe (Galen Gering) and Jada (Elia Cantu) remain on the hunt. But by Christmas Day, it appears they may all come up safe and sound, giving Brady (Eric Martsolf) the chance to confront his ex about their daughter.
Christmastime Is Here In Salem
Amid all the drama, Salemites are gearing up to celebrate Christmas…or at least they were. Just as Lani (Sal Stowers) and Eli (Lamon Archey) arrive for the holidays, Julie (Susan Seaforth Hayes) decides to postpone Christmas. But by the end of the week, it’s Jeremy (Michael Roark) who helps Julie get ready for the annual Horton ornament tradition.
Meanwhile, for The DiMeras, Marlena (Deidre Hall) visits Rachel (Alice Halsey) at Bayview for Christmas, while Johnny (Carson Boatman) manages to put aside his differences with his father for just a moment.
Odds and Ends
On Thursday, Sarah (Linsey Godfrey) will share life-changing test results with Chanel (Raven Bowens), while Friday brings sorrow to Salem when Jack (Matthew Ashford) and Jennifer (Melissa Reeves) officially bring Thomas (Cary Christopher) and Charlotte home.
