She left town after her husband was brutally murdered, and now another death will bring Sami (Alison Sweeney) back to Salem on Days of Our Lives.  

The Necktie Killer Strikes Again

After EJ was murdered in the park, Sami left town and headed for Hollywood after she was given a movie deal. However, now, after learning that her son, Will (Guy Wilson) has become the next victim of the Necktie Killer, she will be forced to return to town to do the unthinkable-bury her own child.  

Will was murdered after discovering the red necktie in the trash at Ben (Robert Scott Wilson) and Abigail's (Kate Mansi) apartment. He unsuccessfully tried to play things off and escape, but Ben-who no one has yet pegged as the killer-was too quick and too strong, and managed to successfully strangle him to death, marking his third victim. And now, the news of Will's death is going to send shockwaves throughout Salem.

Will Uncovers Keys Evidence About The Killer

Not only will Sami be heartbroken that her son was killed, but his father, Lucas (Bryan Dattilo), grandmothers Marlena (Deirdre Hall) and Kate (Lauren Koslow), his one-time girlfriend and the mother of his child, Gabi (Camilla Banus), and his estranged husband, Sonny (Freddie Smith), as well as Abigail, who was his cousin, will all feel the effects of Will's death in their lives.  

Now, all of them must band together as they try to find a way to cope with their horrifying loss-but Sami could need extra help keeping it together once she officially arrives back in town. 

Days of Our Lives airs Monday-Friday at 1 p.m. on NBC.
