Looks like the Grim Reaper may be paying a visit to Albert Square.
EastEnders is set to air a dramatic shooting storyline next month that will see one character get shot at the Queen Vic.
The Walford has been the setting of many, many deadly and dangerous situations over the years - and now it looks like it
A trailer released at the end of last night's [August 24] episode shows the exterior of a darkened Queen Vic before a gunshot rings out.

And at just 10 seconds long, that's about all the information fans will be getting for now - besides the fact that the scenes will be playing out in September.
There's no indication of who the shooter is - or even who they are going after, let alone if they'll survive the attack.
EastEnders bosses are remaining quiet on any other details about the drama (for now), but fans are already speculating about who it could be.

Many believe that it could be linked to Stuart Highway's brutal campaign of revenge and intimidation against the Carters - especially since they're they ones currently living at the pub.
Others reckon that the tensions with the local gangs may come to a head in the next few weeks.
Either way, there's not too long to wait - September is only around the corner, after all.
