‘General Hospital’: The Hook Strikes Again – Is Britt Westbourne the Next Victim?

General Hospital doc Britt Westbourne exits the ABC soap any day now. And spoilers confirm The Hook strikes again next week on GH. So, will “Britta” be the next to fall victim to the hook-wielding psycho on the daytime drama?

Britt Westbourne Leaves General Hospital Soon

Britt Westbourne’s (Kelly Thiebaud) exit from GH is coming up soon. The actress is leaving the soap to focus on the primetime drama Station 19. And her character has the fatal disease Huntington’s on GH.

The disease is progressing, and Britt’s symptoms are getting more severe. As a result, she plans to leave Port Charles so her friends and family won’t see her health decline, recall General Hospital recaps.

But her good friend Austin Holt (Roger Howarth) hopes she’ll change her mind. Also, Cody Bell (Josh Kelly) soon pleads his case, hoping Britt will give him another chance.

So it seems that her two most plausible exits would be to either leave town or succumb to the illness. However, the General Hospital showrunners may go a different route…

New Year’s Eve Bash Causes Chaos on GH

Britt’s big birthday bash on The Haunted Star kicks off this week. And official spoilers promise it’s full of surprises. Indeed, anything can happen on the party ship, and things may turn deadly.

This week, The Hook Killer attacks again — and there’s a good chance that the Co-chief of Staff could be the next victim. She may wander off alone on the boat (or at the pier) to get some air and become the perfect target on General Hospital.

Furthermore, spoilers suspect that Victor Cassadine (Charles Shaughnessy) is giving kill orders to The Hook. And Vic is one of the few people who know about Britt’s diagnosis.

And recently, Vic found out how sick she is when he ran into her at The Savoy. So, he knows she’s getting worse. Perhaps, he decides to do her a favor and take her out now before the disease renders her helpless.

And, as a bonus, he can throw the PCPD off because Britt doesn’t have a connection to Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali). Soon, Trina expresses her doubts on General Hospital.

And Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Chavez) is in shock. So, they may get news of The Hook’s latest victim. And if it’s Britt, they will be dumbfounded.

Britta Doesn’t Make It on General Hospital?

Soon, Britt Westbourne may be rushed to GH after a brutal attack from the serial killer. And after Rory Cabrera‘s (Michael Blake Kruse) attack, the hospital is running low on the anti-venom needed to save the victims.

So, there might be no hope for her — and she may lose her life. Soon, tragic news flips Port Chuck upside down. Then, Britta’s mom, Liesl Obrecht (Kathleen Gati), vows to take care of something. So, she may not rest until she finds her daughter’s killer.

And Liesl’s quest may lead her straight to Victor. Then, maybe, Dr. O will be the one to finally stop Victor for good. If he’s responsible for her Britta’s death, he will feel Liesl’s wrath.

Tragedy rocks Port Charles soon on GH, and it may be the death of Britt Westbourne. Don’t miss a minute of the ABC soap opera to see how it plays out for the fan favorite.
