2007 Previews:
??????????: There's definitely going to be a big, umbrella storyline. It's a mystery. A WhoDunIt. It's going to encapsulate ALL of Salem. Ideally, it will rival 1995's Desecrator and 2003's Salem Serial Killer storyline. It's going to be set up the same way with a huge, huge ripple storyline for *ALL* of Salem. It's going to have multiple chapters. It will be a huge portion of 2007. Suspect everyone.
