Is Sonya Eddy posting tweets from the grave?

General Hospital star Sonya Eddy died on December 19. However, despite her death, her Twitter account is still posting messages two weeks posthumously. Not only that, but the tweets are a little creepy considering she’s passed. One tweet that arrived three days after her death read, “today could reveal some unexpected rewards.”

Some fans thought her account was hacked, but that was not the case. As one Twitter follower wrote, “Sonya has those Gemini posts automated to appear daily years before she passed. If you’re speaking about those, her account was not hacked.”

The problem for those who want them taken down is that the company responsible claimed that they can’t do anything about it. Long before her death, Sonya signed up with an app called Twittascope so it would post her horoscope daily on her Twitter account. However, since she authorized it to run, the company can’t stop it.

TMZ reported that Twittascope said they can’t stop it since Sonya wanted it to post on her account. The only way they said it can stop is for someone with access to her Twitter account to manually go in and disable it in her account settings.

However, while many fans felt it was inappropriate and wanted this stopped, others enjoyed it. “Please don’t take this down. We can continue to enjoy these special TWEETS,” one fan wrote.
