Is Nikolas really dead? It feels wrong for the writers to have killed off such an iconic character, let alone a staple in one of the main General Hospital families. Stavros, Helena, and the other elder’s legacy lives on in the younger Cassadines. Nikolas Cassadine (Marcus Coloma) should live on to carry that legacy.
General Hospital spoilers reveal things are not exactly as it seems when it comes to the Cassadine family. Victor Cassadine (Charles Shaughnessy) has been working toward complete control. His desires to unite his family come with hard work. Victor’s methods to bring his family together knows no bounds as he stops at nothing to achieve his ultimate goal. That being said, there is nothing Uncle Victor won’t do to get what he wants.
Observant General Hospital fans vocalized their dislike for Nik’s new persobality. Surely, Nikolas was always “The Dark Prince,” but, he was never this stupid; or sloppy. Sleeping with his son’s girlfriend, Esme Prince (Avery Kristen Pohl), is only one of the recent red flags from Nik’s downward spiral. One mess up after another, and Victor couldn’t take any more of his nephew’s boneheaded moves. Because of this, General Hospital rumors began, claiming the Nikolas Cassadine we see is an imposter. Is it possible that Victor swapped his nephew out for an imposter weeks ago?! Is the Nikolas who died even the real Nikolas?!
