A source told The Sun: “Dean is the ultimate villain so to bring him back was a genius move especially with everything that’s coming up this autumn. There’s also the small matter of the big murder at Christmas, could it be Dean’s body under the tree?
"We know that Linda is one of the women involved, and this just throws another name in the mix. It’s a very exciting time."It comes after show boss Chris Clenshaw previously teased a major Halloween shock for Linda Carter (Kellie Bright).
He said at the time: "Poor Lina’s struggling this Halloween as it’s the first one without Mick. Obviously she wasn’t with Mick this time last year, but Halloween was very much their thing, and something they did together in the Queen Vic. So, she’s trying her best to make a go of things, but she gets one hell of a surprise that she doesn’t bargain for."
Daily Star has been approached the BBC for a comment. Fans will remember that Dean raped his brother Mick Carter's (Danny Dyer) wife Linda in the Queen Vic pub which lead to the traumatised mum breaking down and revealing what she’s been through to her husband on Christmas Day.
Fans are convinced that Dean could be the mysterious ex-boyfriend of Gina Knight (Francesca Henry), who currently lives in the Vic with her family. Talking to X, formerly known as Twitter, one fan penned: "My theory is Cindy kills Deano as she discovers what Deano did to Linda, as it emerges he's Gina's ex-boyfriend from Spain."

Fans will have to wait and see what brings Dean back to Walford.
