Lachlan White’s body count just keeps on creeping up, and the unhinged teen hasn’t retired from serial killing just yet…
This week, he tried to take out another two villagers – and his auntie Rebecca is missing, presumed dead.
While it looks like Liv and Robert will survive being poisoned by carbon monoxide, the last we saw of Lachlan’s auntie was her frightened face and a bloodied spanner in her nephew’s hand.

You have to admit… It doesn’t look good for her.
And fans now believe that Lachlan has set his sights on a new victim – Lydia.
During last night’s episode (Wednesday 18 July), she may have accidentally put herself on Lachlan’s ‘To Murder’ list…
Poor Lydia was trying to be kind when she comforted him after telling him about the horrible events in the village (the events HE caused!).

Trying to be sympathetic, she told him: “You’re not yourself are you?”
To which he looked twitchy, and defensively answered: “I’m alright.”
She continued: “You don’t have to pretend. I know what’s going on.”
Gulp. If only she did, she’d run a mile!
She then promised to make it her “job to track Rebecca down”. Oh dear Lydia, you really can’t sense danger, can you?!

Lydia, have you just dug your own grave?
Fans certainly believe so, with one simply predicting: “Lydia’s next.”
Another said: “Oh no – Please don’t add Lydia to the list Lachlan!”
A third agreed, saying: “Does Lydia have a death wish? @emmerdale are practically hanging a ‘next victim’ sign round her neck.”
Oh No-Please don't add Lydia to the list Lachlan! #Emmerdale

I don't know why but I have a bad feeling that unfortunately, Lydia might be Lachlan's next victim she is getting way to close to him and I think she might find out. And Sam has never been very lucky in love #emmerdale

One fan believed the tables would be turned, however, and predicted that Lydia would be the one to bring Lachlan down instead…
They tweeted: “My money’s on Lydia to bring down Lachlan.”
The truth is that the walls are closing in on troubled Lachlan, and hurting his aunt has clearly pushed him to the edge…
As the whole village frantically searches for Rebecca, it’s only a matter of time before the truth finally comes out.
And Lachlan’s girlfriend Belle already has her suspicions after finding Rebecca’s dream book in the back of Lachlan’s car.
But, as the net draws in, Lachlan won’t go down without a fight. Who will he take down with him?
