‘General Hospital’s’ New Trina Stalker Twist Sparks Wave of Fan Theories
‘General Hospital’ fans speculate who Trina Robinson’s stalker could be as GH debuts a new mystery involving a host of possible suspects.
When the final scene of the July 22, 2026, episode of General Hospital revealed that Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali) was getting a bona fide stalker story, the fandom sent up cheers, while quickly speculating who Trina’s stalker would turn out to be. GH gave the audience two possible suspects immediately, but fans have come up with more and are ready to see how this story plays out.
Who Could Trina’s Stalker Be?
Trina had just signed her very first record contract when she found Kai (Jens Austin Astrup) at the Surf Lodge to celebrate. Just after a scene in which record producer Simon (Grady Aldridge) announced that Trina was the one to watch, we saw Kai’s friend Quinn (Jequan Jackson) watch with jealousy as the pair kissed. The next thing we knew, the scene switched to a shot of a cork board filled with Trina snaps as ominous music played in the background.
So, is the stalker Simon, Quinn, or someone else entirely? Fans took to social media to espouse their various theories, knowing the answer won’t come for weeks or possibly even months.
Some fans wonder if Trina’s presumed-dead first love, Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Chavez), is on his way back and creating bulletin boards of his former girlfriend. After all, some of the pics were from his and Trina’s time together.
Most fans think the two most obvious suspects aren’t the culprit, which would make sense for a soap mystery. “I’m praying this is a great story for Trina and I don’t want Quinn to be the stalker too easy. I want it to be whomever Simon was talking to.” one fan said on X.
“I kinda think (hope) it could be Spencer,” an X user wrote. “They showed that it’s actually a neat bulletin board, not plastered all over a wall in a psycho stalker way. I think Spencer is being held somewhere and wants to get back to Trina.”
Others wonder if Esme (Avery Pohl) could be back. She and Spencer plunged into the River Seine together and their bodies were never found. Esme tried to hurt Trina in the past, so why wouldn’t she do it again? “Wait…what if Esme is actually alive?” a longtime fan asked. “She has Spencer hidden somewhere and has been tormenting him by covering the room with photos of Trina, reminding him of the life he can’t have. Now that would be a classic #GH twist.”
Indeed it would, while also giving Trina the story her fans have been waiting for since Spencer and Esme disappeared in 2024.
