Next week's episodes see Baby Tate kidnapped from the cottage where Graham Foster is currently taking care of him.

Graham warns Kim about the disturbing development, putting her on high alert.

As seen in the new trailer, which can be watched below, the mystery kidnapper clearly has a sadistic streak as they taunt Graham by putting up photos around the cottage where he has been staying.

Meanwhile, Kim faces a Halloween horror when she's unsettled by strange noises at Home Farm.

In a phone conversation with Graham, she warns: "The people who took Joe's child are in the house."

Raging at her unknown tormentors, Kim then screams: "Just get out!"

DS Thea Ramsden is also seen nearby – but as indicated in recent spoilers, she's not necessarily the kidnapper.

Yesterday, it was revealed that the tense situation will escalate into a full-on showdown between Kim and Thea.

Claire King, who plays Kim, recently told us: "Suddenly, Kim thinks it must be Thea behind this. Kim tries to run and hide, but angry Thea follows and locks the back door before she can escape.

"As they run round the table, Kim slips and Thea grabs hold of her. In a panic, and thinking she's about to get hurt, Kim stumbles across a sharp cheese knife and stabs Thea!"

As Thea starts to bleed out, Kim is mortified when she realises that the local detective seems to genuinely know nothing about the kidnapping.

Claire added: "Thea passes out. Kim is frantic, she's not sure whether she can save her or not…

"If Thea dies, Kim could end up back in prison. Obviously, Kim would be beside herself if she knew Thea was actually her daughter. She thought she'd lost her 27 years ago, now she could lose her forever!"

Emmerdale airs on weeknights at 8pm on ITV1, and streams on ITVX.
