Weekly Days of Our Lives Spoilers October 28-November 1: Tricks, Treats, and Trouble in Salem

For the week of October 28 – November 1, Days of Our Lives spoilers focus on schemes and nightmares for more than one person. Perfect themes for this upcoming Halloween week.

Treats

Treats come in the form of two big returns and a newbie finally making his debut. First, Vivian (Louise Sorel) and Philip (John-Paul Lavoisier) return to Salem, no doubt to cause chaos, as they are wont to do. Unsurprisingly, Vivian Alamain and Philip Kiriakis get to scheming. The last time they were in town, they dealt with Victor’s death. So, what are their plans and goals for this latest stint? What is their endgame?

Second, the Hernandez family grows as Rafe (Galen Gering) and Gabi’s (Cherie Jimenez) cousin, Javi (Al Calderon), arrives in Salem. We knew this addition to the canvas was happening, but what we don’t know is how he will impact the other characters on the show. Who will he develop a connection with? And how will he affect Gabi and Rafe’s lives?

Tricks

DAYS has been known to drop a crazy Halloween-themed episode or two. Well, ghouls and goblins, Head Writer Ron Carlivati is about to unleash another nightmare before Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Year’s.

Obviously, former Lady Whistleblower and current Body & Soul head writer Leo Stark (Greg Rikaart) is the best Salem resident to get us into the holiday mood. His imagination is a hot mess, so it’s no surprise when he suddenly has a Halloween-ish nightmare. What fresh hell will be unleashed? And what’s the “ish” all about?

Odds & Ends

Vivian stops Gabi from seeing Stefan. With Brandon Barash exiting DAYS, how does Stefan’s mom stop him from seeing his soon-to-be ex-wife? Surely, Stefan’s okay after that Friday cliffhanger, right? RIGHT?

After Holly’s important off-camera conversation with Nicole in Paris, Holly (Ashley Puzemis) softens toward Eric (Greg Vaughan). In fact, she forgives him completely. What did Nicole (Arianne Zucker) say to her that caused this 180?

Meanwhile, Holly’s nightmare is coming to life. Suddenly, Sophia (Madelyn Kientz) and Tate (Leo Howard — watch his wedding video here) admit they have feelings for each other. Sophia’s feelings aren’t a surprise. But Tate’s? Wow. That we didn’t see coming…yet.
