Postings across the Internet - including some on SoapCentral.com's Message Central message boards - are wondering if Guiding Light's Phillip Spaulding is really, really dead.
Or is that "murdered?"
It is unclear what - other than, perhaps, wishful thinking - has prompted the rumor mill. However, adding to speculation is the non-denial by Guiding Light's head writer David Kreizman when asked if Phillip would be returning to the canvas.
"I can't answer that," Kreizman responded open-endedly.
A Guiding Light spokesperson explained that it is not show policy to comment on rumors.
