Salem’s Most Chilling Confession, the Mystery of “Who Shot EJ” Is Over ||Days of Our Lives Spoilers
Shocking Twist on Days of Our Lives: Did a Child Pull the Trigger?
In a jaw-dropping turn of events, Days of Our Lives has dropped one of its most haunting storylines yet — and it all centers around a child. The long-standing mystery of who shot EJ Deveraux is unraveling, and the answer is shaking Salem to its core.
This week’s courtroom scenes have been nothing short of explosive. At the center stands Rachel Black — daughter of Brady Black and Kristen DiMera — a young girl thrust into a case far beyond her years. On the night EJ was shot, Rachel was there. And now, her fragile, trembling testimony may change everything.
According to spoilers, Rachel recalled seeing Johnny DiMera holding the gun in a heated argument. It was a revelation with the power to destroy lives. But as viewers know, nothing in Salem is ever that simple. Rachel’s memories, disturbed by trauma, nightmares, and emotional suppression, hinted at something far darker: a repressed memory of pulling the trigger herself.
In a devastating courtroom climax, Rachel finally utters the words that silence the room: “It was me.”
The confession detonates like a bomb. The shooter wasn’t a jealous relative or a hardened criminal — but a child. A girl whose mind may have buried the truth to protect her from unbearable guilt.
Rachel’s psychiatrist and grandmother, Dr. Marlena Evans, faces scrutiny for possibly knowing the truth and choosing to remain silent. Did she protect her granddaughter at the expense of justice? As Belle Black accuses her mother of withholding the truth, Marlena’s role as Salem’s moral compass is now under threat.
The fallout is immediate and personal. Johnny is exonerated but emotionally scarred. Brady and Kristen brace for a bitter custody battle. And EJ, nearly killed by his own niece, must now choose between vengeance and compassion.
What’s next for Salem? Can the DiMera and Black families survive this emotional wreckage? Was Rachel a tragic victim of circumstance or the center of the darkest secret the town has ever buried?
As the dust settles, one thing is clear: the truth may have come out, but the real damage has only just begun.
