But later takes her mom out for pedicures and gives her the hard truth: this is no fairytale and it’s going nowhere. Till next time!

Gothic horror is one of the most enduring subgenres. Aesthetically, it usually features decaying castles and eerie landscapes. The plots typically involve ghosts or ancient curses, the themes touch on madness and isolation, and the atmosphere is one of relentless, creeping dread.

The genre also thrives on ambiguity and emotional intensity, often keeping us guessing as to whether supernatural forces are genuinely at work or if we are merely witnessing the reflections of fractured minds. With all that in mind, and without further ado, here are the finest gothic horror novels ever written, ranked.

10

‘The Picture of Dorian Gray’ (1890)

Image via Penguin Classics

“Each of us has heaven and hell in him.” After the handsome young Dorian Gray wishes that his portrait would age in his place, his desire is mysteriously granted. While Dorian remains eternally youthful, the hidden painting gradually reflects every cruel act, selfish decision, and moral transgression he commits throughout his life. This simple premise sets the stage for a surprisingly thoughtful meditation on the price of unalloyed hedonism. Here, outer beauty and inner desolation go hand in hand.

The atmosphere is immersive, and the aesthetic is decadent, very much channeling the Gothic mood. At the same time, The Picture of Dorian Gray still shows off author Oscar Wilde‘s talent for wit and humor. The dialogue also frequently gets philosophical, challenging Victorian ideas about beauty, morality, and identity. A brilliant statement on vanity and the misguided quest for eternal youth.

9

‘Something Wicked This Way Comes’ (1962)

Image via Gauntlet Press

“By the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes.” Something Wicked This Way Comes is one of the very best books by genre legend Ray Bradbury. When a mysterious carnival arrives in a quiet Midwestern town just before Halloween, teenage friends Will Halloway and Jim Nightshade discover that its attractions grant visitors their deepest desires, but always at a terrible cost. Presiding over this sinister spectacle is the enigmatic Mr. Dark, who seems to feed upon human weakness and regret.

This one’s a little different, in that it relocates the Gothic sensibility to a more modern setting, yet Bradbury makes it work. In particular, he ensures that the carnival feels simultaneously magical and deeply unsettling. It embodies the Gothic fascination with temptation and hidden corruption lurking beneath beauty. At the same time, underneath the darkness, Something Wicked This Way Comes is simply a great coming-of-age story, with protagonists who feel real.

8

‘The Fall of the House of Usher’ (1839)

Image via Signet Classics

“I felt that I breathed an atmosphere of sorrow.” In this grim gem from Edgar Allan Poe, an unnamed narrator visits his childhood friend Roderick Usher at the family’s decaying ancestral mansion, only to find both the house and its inhabitants consumed by grief and tragedy. As strange events unfold, the boundaries between supernatural horror and madness become increasingly impossible to distinguish. Likewise, the crumbling mansion appears almost alive, reflecting the mental deterioration of the Usher family itself.

The setting is immersive and delectably creepy, all dark corridors, eerie silences, and storms lashing the windows. Whether readers interpret its events as supernatural or psychological, the overwhelming sense of decay and inevitable destruction never weakens. On release, this book was way ahead of its time, and it remains remarkably readable for something published in 1830. Its influence can be found in countless haunted-house stories and psychological horror novels.

7

‘Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde’ (1886)

Image via Omni Publishing

“Man is not truly one, but truly two.” This archetypal ‘split identity’ story was penned by Treasure Island‘s Robert Louis Stevenson. In it, respected London physician Dr. Henry Jekyll develops a chemical formula capable of separating the opposing aspects of his personality, allowing his darker impulses to emerge in the violent and increasingly uncontrollable figure of Edward Hyde. Through the investigations of lawyer Gabriel Utterson, readers gradually uncover disturbing clues and piece together the mystery.

Although often remembered for its famous twist, Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde has a lot more to offer than just that. On top of the compelling plot, it powerfully captures Victorian anxieties surrounding repression and the need to appear respectable. Indeed, Hyde embodies the darker instincts that civilized society attempts to suppress but can never entirely eliminate. The book’s central metaphor has become so deeply embedded in popular culture that “Jekyll and Hyde” continues to symbolize humanity’s divided nature.

6

‘The Turn of the Screw’ (1898)

Image via Penguin

“I was giving pleasure, if he had his way.” In The Turn of the Screw, a young governess accepts a position caring for two orphaned children at an isolated country estate, where she becomes convinced that malevolent spirits are attempting to corrupt her young charges. Yet no one else appears to share her certainty. Every ghostly encounter can be interpreted either as genuine supernatural activity or as evidence of the governess’s deteriorating mental state.

Author Henry James uses this ambiguity to create a palpable sense of dread and unease. In other words, rather than relying on overt scares, James allows suspicion and uncertainty to accumulate until even ordinary interactions become deeply unsettling. The isolated country house becomes a pressure cooker of emotional repression. Ultimately, although relatively lean at about 200 pages long, this book is layered and complex, lending itself to endless analysis and interpretation.

5

‘The Shining’ (1977)

Image via Vintage

“Monsters are real, and ghosts are real too. They live inside us.” As with Something Wicked This Way Comes, The Shining proved that the Gothic tradition could still work in a modern setting. The main character here is Jack Torrance, an aspiring writer hoping to rebuild his life after struggles with alcoholism. He accepts a job as winter caretaker of the isolated Overlook Hotel, where he and his family soon discover that the hotel’s violent past still lingers within its walls, exerting a sinister influence over anyone who stays there.

The Overlook’s corrupting influence feels like a homage to The Haunting of Hill House. Like the ancestral mansions and castles of earlier novels, it possesses a disturbing sense of history, as though every dark thing that happened there continues echoing through the present. It’s unclear where the hotel’s influence stops and the character’s inner demons begin. Indeed, Jack’s substance abuse issues were inspired by some of Stephen King’s own experiences.

4

‘Frankenstein’ (1818)

Image via Oxford University Press USA

“Beware; for I am fearless, and therefore powerful.” Frankenstein is a Gothic masterpiece, as well as one of the foundational works of science fiction. Obsessed with unlocking the secrets of life itself, Victor Frankenstein succeeds in creating a living being from assembled body parts. Horrified by his own achievement, he abandons his creation, setting in motion a tragic cycle of rejection, revenge, and unimaginable suffering.

The aesthetic is Gothic to the core, all towering mountains, icy wildernesses, violent storms, and decaying laboratories. Countless books and movies since have borrowed from it. This could have just been a simple horror story, but Mary Shelley instead uses the premise to explore profound questions around scientific responsibility and what it truly means to be human. The book remains a cautionary tale about man’s hubris and tendency to create inventions it cannot control.

3

‘Rebecca’ (1938)

Image via Hachette

“Last night I dreamt I went to Manderley again.” Before Hitchcock made it into a masterful film, Rebecca was a great novel. After marrying the wealthy widower Maxim de Winter, an inexperienced young woman moves into his magnificent country estate, Manderley. There she discovers that the memory of Maxim’s first wife, Rebecca, continues to dominate every room, every servant, and every aspect of the household, particularly through the unsettling devotion of housekeeper Mrs. Danvers.

Writer Daphne du Maurier cleverly uses Gothic conventions to delve deep into emotional insecurity. The unnamed narrator constantly compares herself to Rebecca’s seemingly perfect legacy, creating an atmosphere where psychological pressure becomes every bit as terrifying as physical danger. Likewise, Manderley itself feels haunted not by ghosts but by memory. Every revelation gradually reshapes readers’ understanding of the characters while deepening the tension.

2

‘The Haunting of Hill House’ (1959)

Image via Penguin

“Whatever walked there, walked alone.” One of the great masterpieces of 20th-century horror. In The Haunting of Hill House, Dr. John Montague invites a small group of volunteers to investigate the paranormal reputation of Hill House, a mansion long associated with unexplained deaths and supernatural disturbances. Among the guests is Eleanor Vance, whose loneliness and vulnerability make her particularly susceptible to the house’s mysterious influence.

Author Shirley Jackson steadily crafts this simple setup into one of the finest haunted-house stories of all time. The writing is rich throughout, making you feel like you can really see Hill House and feel its coldness. What’s also amazing is how little ghostly activity there actually is in this book, yet it still feels so scary. You’re constantly waiting for something terrible to happen, even when things seem calm.

1

‘Dracula’ (1897)

Image via Archibald Constable and Company

“The blood is the life.” Dracula is the definitive Gothic horror novel, practically spawning the entire vampire genre by itself. The story begins with the young solicitor Jonathan Harker traveling to Transylvania to assist the enigmatic Count Dracula with a property transaction. In Dracula’s shadowed castle, Harker discovers that his host is an ancient vampire preparing to bring unimaginable horror to England. The Count’s influence spreads, and Professor Abraham Van Helsing undertakes to stop him.

Here, Bram Stoker brilliantly combines nearly every defining element of Gothic fiction: a sinister castle, ancient curses, forbidden knowledge, supernatural evil, crumbling traditions, thinly-veiled sexual repression, and an atmosphere saturated with dread. Then there’s also the book’s epistolary structure, composed of journals, letters, newspaper articles, and telegrams, which went on to be influential. All this makes for a chilling and deeply compelling story of light versus darkness and superstition versus modernity.

Did you know that Christian Slater, Val Kilmer, and Verne Troyer starred in a 2002 direct-to-video heist film called Hard Cash? I do, because it’s streaming on Tubi, and that’s where I live when I’m seeking out entertainment. It tells the story of a botched robbery that spirals far beyond out of control before pushing into increasingly ridiculous territory as matters continue to escalate.

The talent involved in Hard Cash is what’s most baffling because everybody brings the goods, but the story beats themselves are so far beyond saving that it’s a bit of a chore to slog through. The action sequences are low budget, and the dialogue is wooden at times, but there’s still enough charisma to keep you interested well into the third act.

I can’t in good conscience say that Hard Cash is a terrible movie because it isn’t. But it pains me to see how much potential is wasted on what could have otherwise been a solid crime comedy. In an alternate reality, I imagine a fully realized version of this movie that’s far superior to what we ended up getting: a high-stakes kidnapping story involving one man’s shot at redemption and going legit, with a healthy amount of comic relief hanging in the balance to keep things light when the going gets tough.

Instead, we get… this.

Immediately Makes No Sense, And Continues That Way

What’s most troubling about Hard Cash involves the logistics we’re supposed to get behind. When convicted thief Thomas Taylor (Christian Slater) gets released on parole, he’s immediately up to his old tricks and finds what he thinks is the perfect job: robbing an off-track betting office owned by mobster Bo Young (William Forsythe). He uses his paramedic job as a front to get close to the operation, which makes absolutely no sense. Correct me if I’m wrong, but if you’re just getting out of prison, it’s highly unlikely you can immediately fall back into this line of work.

I’m not saying criminals can’t be rehabilitated, contributing members of society who work these kinds of jobs, but the timeline here doesn’t add up by any stretch of the imagination. At least, there’s no scenario I can think of where a convicted felon immediately starts working as a first responder, regardless of their vocational history before getting thrown behind bars.

The money from the robbery ends up being marked, meaning a money laundering front needs to be set up. Working with his old crew, Thomas lays low and figures out his next move, but matters get complicated quickly when corrupt FBI Agent Mark C. Cornell (Val Kilmer), who had similar plans to rip off Bo, decides the best course of action is to kidnap Thomas’ daughter Megan (Holliston Coleman), who had been living under the care of Paige (Sara Downing), Thomas’ girlfriend, until his release.

What we get from this point forward is essentially a montage of misguided decisions, corruption, betrayal, and running from the law. Every once in a while, Verne Troyer’s Atilla, who’s working in collusion with the Russian mob (that’s a whole other can of worms), pops out of a suitcase with a gun because the Russians are also after the same stack of cash everybody else wants.

Oh, What Could Have Been

Hard Cash goes off the rails once it’s established because there are simply too many cooks in the kitchen. We have an ex-con trying to save his daughter from a corrupt FBI agent who’s after the same money he stole from a mobster, which is also the same money the Russians are after. Right in the middle of it all is a sweet little girl who doesn’t want her dad to steal anymore. In my mind, this is perfect “comedy of errors” territory, but the problem is that the film plays everything completely straight.

In a parody or straight-up action comedy context, Hard Cash could have thrived because the entire plot is inherently insane, and it should have leaned into that energy whenever the opportunity presented itself. There’s comic relief here, sure, but for a movie reportedly made for less than $5 million, Hard Cash would have benefited from embracing the camp instead of trying to establish itself as a balls-to-the-wall action thriller.

While I really want to rail on Hard Cash for failing to meet its potential, it remains a fun, action experiment that earns its keep thanks to the talent involved. Its biggest failing is that it doesn’t know what lane to stay in, and its attempts at seriousness are constantly undermined by the comedy it should have embraced.

As of this writing, you can stream Hard Cash for free on Tubi.

Hey Big Brother fans – the veto ceremony is over and we’ve got your results. We already reported that science nerd nominee Mallory Aurichio would use her veto. And now, we’ve got your confirmed renom made by HOH Dee Valladares at Monday’s veto meeting.

Also, Jason de Puy has blown up his game, Angela Murray has been fully crazy eyes activated, and Rome Seymour is exhausted by Lyric Medeiros. We’ll get into all the live feeds drama and the veto results.

Big Brother: Jason’s Game Blowup and Angela’s Activation

Let’s do Jason first. He and Angela had that sweet moment on Sunday’s curated CBS episode. But turns out, that bonding was for nothing. Later, on the feeds, there was another moment of him crying to Angela about missing his mom and she comforted Jason.

Then when Angela walked out, Jason called her the B-word and made a face. Then later, Jason told Lyric and Drew Campbell that he was fake crying. And Angela found out. Also, we know Jason hates Rick Devens and wanted him out from the moment he walked into BB28.

Now, Jason formed a (fake) alliance with Drew and Melody Morris when they talked in the backyard. It’s called Court Jesters but it’s only real to Melody and Jason. Drew’s just faking. But Jason griped to Melody and Drew and said way too much.

BB28: Big Daddy in the House?

Jason said as long as the veterans are in the house, the newbies won’t be getting any screen time. Jason said they need to get the three icons out. Then, they will control the game. He also really wants Devens out because Jason thinks he’ll win AFP.

Jason referred to Devens as “Big Daddy”. And then Jason said all the boys in the house love him and that Devens is out there winning money for his two kids. Jason said he’ll take Devens out. Jason’s strategy is spot-on. His execution is sloppy.

Drew told Dee. Then, Jason walked into the storage room with them and suggested to Drew and Dee they form a Latino trio. Then, Jason and Dee went up to the medieval torture have-not room to talk. He tried to play off targeting Devens by blaming Haley Thogmartin.

Jason claimed Haley “got in his ear” about Devens. Dee clocked him but still made a (fake) alliance with Jason. But, it’s pretty clear neither Dee nor Jason were sincere. Then on Monday, pre-veto meeting, Drew did some more spilling.

What’s interesting is Angela worried Drew might not be loyal to the Crossovers. But then he showed his loyalty and squashed their doubts (although more emerged later). Drew told Devens and Angela that Jason is terrible for them.

He revealed Jason said he’s got Angela in his back pocket and she thinks Jason’s loyal to her. Drew told Angela that Jason confirmed he was fake crying to her. And Drew told Devens that Jason wants to backdoor Devens.

Also, Drew told Devens that Jason’s plotting to make a big performance out of putting him on the block. Angela’s in an uproar and said it was ridiculous for Jason to play on her heartstrings like that. Angela called Jason a mother-f***** and is ticked.

Big Brother: Angela’s Crazy Eyes and Haley’s Snake Moves

Angela’s on a crazy eyes simmer and one move away from blowing up. She was also activated by Haley Thogmartin pressing her about Lala. Sounds like Haley was trying to get the women to throw down.

What’s funny is Angela clocked it and raged to Barrett Pfeiffer about Haley trying to lure her into a fight. She dropped the mother-f***** bomb again about that. Angela swore to Barrett she’d never fight with LaTrice “Lala” Verrett.

Ironic since Lala doesn’t like Angela and wants her gone. Angela said Haley was being disgusting. And he said Haley told him Angela and Lala were competing to see who’s house mom. According to Drew, Haley wants to see the Angela versus Lala fight.

So, we’ve got Haley pretty much cooked along with Jason. After Haley pressed Dee hard to renom Lala and left, Dee raged to the cameras. She says Haley keeps leaving her slippers in the HOH room so she has an excuse to keep coming back thinking she’s being clever.

Not only did Angela call Jason and Haley out, Dee told the live feed cams that Haley’s a snake and also dropped a mother-f*****. Dee said nobody can trust that girl. She’d like to renom Haley. But Dee’s very good at separating emotion versus strategy.

Big Brother: Veto Results and Blockbuster Predictions

So, when the feeds went down for the veto meeting, I expected Dee to keep her temper in check and stick with renomming Ashley Trail even though she hates Haley. And then the feeds came back up and yes, that’s how it went.

Mallory took herself off the block and Ashley went up in her place on BB28. Heading into the Blockbuster, looks like Yash Patel is likely to be evicted if he doesn’t win it. And Taylor Brown and Ashley might be a close vote if Yash does win it.

Quick note, on The Red Corner. When I talked alliances before, I only mentioned Chuk, Haley and Kamu in that alliance. I deliberately did not include Dee and Devens in the list because they are faking being in that alliance and the only “real” members are those three.

At this point, if Angela wins HOH, I could see a world where the Red Corner’s on the block. All three – Chuk Anyanwu, Haley and Kamu Kirk. But that would be Angela playing emotionally. Dee and Devens might be able to keep her in check.

One last live feeds note that had me laughing. Angela said she knows she’s going to get some from her husband when he does the “three s’s” – shower, shave, and sh*t. Angela’s a real one. Between that and Lyric confessing her chronic farting, I love the lack of filter on these ladies.

Jason needs to win that HOH to protect himself since he’s done a whole lot of talking to a whole lot of people, and word’s getting around. Not that he’s wrong in what he’s saying but oversharing, especially to the wrong people, will cook you in Big Brother.

Also, Lyric and Rome were up canoodling until 5 AM. Later in the day, when Lyric was cooing to Rome about being obsessed with him, he said he’s obsessed with having a nap. That showmance is wearing him out.

The fifth season of Dark Winds is now in production, continuing the adventures of Tribal Police officers Joe Leaphorn (Zahn McClarnon) and Jim Chee (Kiowa Gordon). However, one of season 4’s new menaces won’t be back for the new season. Dominic McNair, a sinister crime boss whose machinations drove the plot of season 4, will not return.

As revealed in a recent interview with Screen Rant, Titus Welliver will not be returning for season 5. It’s not for any lack of desire: in the interview, he praised the show for having an “amazing group of actors and writers.” Instead, it’s a matter of timing; Welliver is already committed to appearing in the fourth and final season of Netflix’s The Night Agent. He won’t rule out returning to the show for a future season, and speculates about how dangerous his incarcerated crime boss might be when and if he’s released. The 1970s-set Dark Winds is an adaptation of Tony Hillerman‘s Leaphorn and Chee crime novels; it is executive produced by the late Robert Redford and by George R.R. Martin, who was a longtime friend of Hillerman’s.

Who Is Dominic McNair?

A Los Angeles crime boss, McNair was sent to jail as the result of an FBI investigation. However, even from jail he weilded great influence over the LA underworld; realizing that one of his underlings, Leroy Gorman, had agreed to testify against him at the behest of an FBI agent, McNair had both Gorman and the agent killed by fearsome survivalist assassin Irene Vaggan (Franka Potente). McNair intended to replace Gorman with an imposter to tank the case, but needed to eliminate anyone who knew the real Gorman; that included runaway Navajo teenager Billie Tsosie (Isabel Deroy-Olson). Her disappearance drew Leaphorn, Chee, and Bernadette Manueltito (Jessica Matten) to Los Angeles, where they eventually uncovered the scheme and sent Vaggan to jail. Leaphorn later visited McNair in jail; McNair was confident that he’d beat the charges facing him, but Leaphorn was defiant: “You know my name. You know where to find me. Come knock at my door.”

Welliver can currently be seen in The Westies, a new MGM+ crime drama with J.K. Simmons and Tom Brittney. He is also set to return as Harry Bosch in the second season of Prime Video’s Ballard; the series is a spin-off of Bosch and Bosch: Legacy, which starred Welliver as the titular LAPD detective for ten combined seasons.

Season 5 of Dark Winds is now in production; no release date has yet been announced. Stay tuned to Collider for future updates.

General Hospital fans, we have got Curtis Ashford’s (Donnell Turner) trial coming up soon. And also this week, Jordan Ashford (Tanisha Harper) goes over and harasses Portia Robinson (Brook Kerr) into going into labor. And with Curtis’s baby making an appearance in the next few episodes, that will make him much more desperate in court.

We’re going to talk about Curtis’ twisted trial strategy. He may hit a new low trying to avoid doing the time after he did the crime.

General Hospital: Curtis’ Dirty Trial Strategy

So, ADA Justine Turner (Nazneen Contractor) offered Curtis a sweetheart of a plea deal. Two years but out on parole in eight months. And considering the brutal attack and all the witnesses seemed like a pretty good offer. But Curtis told Jordan he didn’t want to do any prison time because he will miss out on his baby’s birth and the early months of their life.

So, heading into court, Curtis is already planning some ruthless tactics with unscrupulous Martin Gray (Michael E. Knight) working for him. I love him, but let’s admit it, Laura Collins’ (Genie Francis) brother is a sketchy guy. And with Curtis planning to play dirty in court, Martin is the perfect ambulance chaser to help him do this.

General Hospital: Curtis Fixated on Isaiah

So, if you remember, Curtis told Martin he wants to accuse Isaiah Gannon (Sawandi Wilson) of being the second driver who left the scene to justify the brutal assault. But Martin told Curtis the judge might not allow that to even be brought up. But Martin said he can try and told Curtis if the judge lets them do it, it could be really compelling.

Problem is the PCPD now thinks that Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen) was the second driver because of Lucy Coe’s (Lynn Herring) false statement and Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) getting Willow’s trip log altered. So, as long as the cops think Jordan ran Willow off the road, that’s not going to help Curtis in court at all.

And Martin would likely be slapped down by the judge if he just tries to accuse somebody who’s not even on the PCPD’s radar of being involved in the wreck. There’s no witnesses that put Isaiah on the road. It’s just that he, like so many people in Port Charles, has a black SUV. And Willow’s falsified trip log puts her on that road.

General Hospital: Willow’s Exonerated

However, Curtis remains certain that Isaiah is to blame. And when Martin and Curtis talked about whether Willow was framed, Jordan suggested they go to Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) because he’s Willow’s biggest defender and they think Chase would help exonerate Willow.

However, Chase knows Brook Lynn framed Willow. So, right now, Chase is vowing to keep it quiet as long as Willow doesn’t face criminal charges. But if Jordan comes to Chase and he realizes Willow could be called onto the stand, then Chase might take action. Because if Martin tries to throw Isaiah under the bus, the DA’s office might call Willow to the stand to contradict their wild theory.

At a minimum, the DA’s office could enter the trip log into evidence to block Martin trying to implicate Isaiah in the crash and ADA Justine has to stay out of the case because Jordan’s her friend. But if it came down to Willow being publicly outed and it ruining her congressional career and all that, Chase might force Brook Lynn to undo what she did. And I’m sure the authorities could correct the trip log. And even if it is undone, you know, that would be really problematic. The PCPD would have to drop it. Problematic for Isaiah. Good for Curtis.

And with Willow exonerated, that would open the door to them accusing Isaiah. I can see Curtis going all out to make that happen. But if Curtis accuses Isaiah, I’m betting Lulu Spencer (Alexa Havins Bruening) would come forward. She could say that Isaiah saw her that night instead of Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr) and give him an alibi. That would be super messy for Curtis.

General Hospital: Jordan’s Desperation and Portia’s Labor

Another thing that Martin suggested was to put Jordan on the stand. He said the jury would sympathize with Curtis if they saw her horrific injuries. But again, Jordan admitted to the cops she caused her crash. Even if the other driver had stopped, her face was injured in the crash, it had nothing to do with the actions of the second driver. Curtis’s whole premise is that they might have died. They didn’t.

And the injuries done to her were primarily caused by the crash. And also, as self-conscious as Jordan is about her face, putting her on the stand seems cruel. But Jordan might agree if it would save Curtis. But I don’t think it’ll help in the end and it would be a terrible ordeal for Jordan. And I honestly thought Curtis and Martin were mercenary to even suggest it. And Curtis seemed totally open to it.

General Hospital: Jordan Pushes Portia into Labor

Another thing going into this criminal trial is that it looks like Portia’s baby is going to be born before opening arguments. So Jordan goes over to Portia’s place and she starts something nasty. I initially thought Jordan was going to go over and be nice and ask Portia to get Isaiah to stop pressing criminal charges. It may start that way, but then looks like Jordan goes crazy and she starts screaming at Portia and we’re going to see Jordan accusing Portia that she’s the one causing this whole thing. Jordan has just lost her whole entire mind.

Curtis is the one who’s been crazy about Isaiah. Don’t forget Curtis was already emotionally involved with Jordan. And Curtis and Portia had a major blow up, a marriage ending fight about Jordan. Portia told Curtis if he walks out the door, their marriage is over. And he walked out the door. It was after that fight that Portia slept with Isaiah. Their marriage was over except for the paperwork. But in Curtis’s mind, Portia was unfaithful and Isaiah moved in on his wife.

General Hospital: Portia Goes into Labor

So, looks like that Portia is in labor this week and about to give birth with Jordan maybe having to deliver the baby. It’s always very soapy when your rival has to deliver your baby. Unless they stop Portia’s labor, which seems unlikely, Curtis’s baby is born in the next few episodes, perhaps by the end of the week, because it is the last few days of July sweeps. And this is important because Curtis was already worried about missing the birth of his and Portia’s child. And once he meets that new baby and falls in love at first sight, then Curtis will be even more desperate to avoid prison.

So, I think he and Martin will still go to extremes in court because Curtis knows that any time that he spends behind bars is time that Isaiah is spending playing daddy to his baby. And honestly, he might provoke Curtis and say something. You know, Isaiah may let Curtis know he’ll be daddying Portia’s new kid while Curtis is in Pentonville sharing a shower with other felons. If Isaiah provokes Curtis into attacking him again, I think prison is almost guaranteed. So, we’ll see how it all plays out on General Hospital.

General Hospital: Portia’s Long Overdue

But it looks like Portia has the baby this week, which is good because, by the way, she is more than eleven months pregnant. She got pregnant at the end of August last year and the long breaks that Finola Hughes and Steve Burton took messed up the GH writers and producers’ plan. So they just turned around and pushed a lot of plots back. And because of that, Portia is forty-six weeks pregnant. That kid is way overdue.

And it looks like Curtis may have his new baby on his mind when he heads into court. And this week, Isaiah interrupts Portia and Curtis. It could be when they are looking at their new baby and then in walks Isaiah with balloons, a teddy bear, and a kiss for Portia. You know, that would make Curtis lose his whole mind. And at this point, most fans want to see Curtis behind bars, at least for a little while. It might happen, but I’m sure that Martin and Curtis will play dirty with some sort of twisted trial strategy.

It’s unclear how the Kardashian-West children, now ages 7-13, feel about mommy’s new boo! Back in August 2024, Kim Kardashian admitted on ‘The Tonight Show’ that she wasn’t ready to date again. However, at the time, her kids were pressing her love life. She said, “It’s so funny because my kids try to set me up like they’re ready now, and I’m not.” She also said that some of her kids, like Saint, were “so particular” about their stepdad goals. He allegedly requested a basketball or soccer player, while another of the West children pointed to streamers as an option.

“Like they have lists, and they try to sneakily set me up, and I’m like, ‘Guys this just isn’t what I want right now.”
