CORRIE bosses have revealed the exact date serial killer Stephen Reid will be caught, and it's going to come with the opportunity to meet him in the flesh.
The undercover criminal, played by Todd Boyce, has already murdered three villagers in an ongoing killing spree.
Stephen has been making a ploy to rake in millions by taking advantage of whoever he can in the cobbles.
But the killer is inching closer to having his identity discovered as the body of one of his victims was recently discovered on Ed and Ronnie's building site.
Now ITV has announced the official date the serial killer's secrets will come to light, and fans can get tickets to watch it live at a 'Coronation Street Experience'.
The event will be held on Friday October 13, which as superstition has it is an unlucky day.
