Lucifer will meet a ‘familiar face’ in Hell in season five (Picture: Netflix)

Lucifer bosses recently revealed our titular character will see a ‘familiar face in Hell’ in the upcoming fifth and final season will – and now fans reckon it could be his lover Chloe Decker.

The homicide detective, played by Lauren German, split from Lucifer at the end of the fourth series so that he could fight demons to the death in the underworld.

And now diehard viewers reckon that they could be set to reunite when the Netflix show returns for its last billing.

Sharing their theories on Reddit, the user I11I1II1I11III1 wrote: ‘I think Chloe dies on Earth in a cop shootout and goes to Hell for loving Lucifer, but her body gets possessed by Lilith and she meets Lucifer in Hell.’




They continued: ‘Lucifer notices Lilith is missing and together they go back to Earth to reclaim Chloe’s body and bring Lilith back to Hell, and then either Chloe becomes the queen of Hell alongside Lucifer, or they make something up for why she can go back to Earth. Maybe with God’s help?

‘And everything goes back to normal, with Lucifer occasionally having set vacations to Earth.’

‘Gonna be so weird having Lilith running around in Chloe’s body while Chloe is in another if Lucifer brings her soul back to Earth (like he did with Abel) to help,’ said another.

‘Good luck explaining that one to Trixie and Dan! Love the idea tho, it’d definitely make for an interesting final season.’

Lucifans also think they’ve cracked who’ll be kicking off season five.

Delving back through the dramedy, the Reddit hive mind discovered that Lee aka Mr Said Out Bitch (played by Jeremiah Birkett) has opened the past three consecutive series and expect the finale will be no different.

Mr Said Out Bitch first arrived in the second installment and is a recurring villain who has been foiled by Lucifer (Tom Ellis) on a number of occasions.

‘Just realised that this guy started off season two, three and four,’ wrote original poster Spandex420. ‘He better start off season five too.’

Lucifer season 4 is available on Netflix.
