Why Did [Spoiler] Kill Sam on General Hospital?

The long-running soap opera General Hospital, created by Frank and Doris Hursley, continues to captivate fans with its shocking twists. Recently, the show delivered a bombshell: the truth behind Sam McCall’s tragic death. Fans are now questioning the motive and reasoning behind the killer’s actions. Did Cyrus really kill Sam McCall, and if so, why?

Here’s everything you need to learn about the latest plot twist.

Why Cyrus killed Sam McCall on General Hospital

While the exact reason for Cyrus killing Sam on the show remains unconfirmed, it’s possible he did it as a protective measure, fearing that Sam had discovered his shady activities.

In the November 20 episode, viewers discovered the truth about Sam McCall’s death through a flashback sequence. Sam died from an overdose of a medicine called Digitalis. This mysterious death took a chilling turn in the December 9 episode, where it was finally confirmed that Cyrus was responsible.

The revelation came during a chance encounter between Dex and Cyrus at Rice Plaza, where Cyrus was seen doing charity work. Dex, suspicious of Cyrus, recalled spotting him in the hospital near Lulu’s floor on the night of Halloween. However, Cyrus dismissed his suspicions.

Then, in a flashback, something happened that left the viewers in shock. Cyrus was shown quietly entering a hospital room. He was carrying a vial of Digitalis with him, which he injected into an IV bag. He then placed his hand on Sam’s head and quietly left the room.

A plausible motive for this is that Sam might have uncovered incriminating information about Cyrus’ shady activities. If this were the case, Cyrus may have seen killing Sam as a necessary action to protect himself.

Another reason that Cyrus may have killed Sam in order to facilitate a reunion between Dante and Lulu. However, this theory seems unlikely, as Cyrus could not have predicted Lulu’s sudden recovery from her coma after surgery. In fact, Cyrus had previously attempted to keep Lulu in a coma. He even tried to arrange for her to transfer to somewhere else.
