"I'm going to murder Ellen Page. She's dead," one message read.
A second message was more descriptive about motive and suggested that the fan was upset over Page's new relationship with Skarsgard.
"Ellen Page if you continue to date Alexander [Skarsgard] I will K-1-L-L you in public in the next year ... Be it in a club, at a game, in a restaurant, or when you're signing autographs," another tweet read.
The death threats came from two separate accounts but are believed to be from the same user. A death threat also came via phone call according to TMZ, while Page was promoting her film "To Rome With Love" in June during the LA Film Festival. The LAPD claimed that an anonymous person called the festival and claimed that they intended to "kill page."
A police investigation has now opened to discover who has been making threats on the actresses life and whether authorities are dealing with more than one person.
