15 Dead Game of Thrones Characters Re-Animated Through Magnificent Art

Dead Hodor

Few shows make people feel… anything, quite like Game of Thrones does. When a character on the show dies, it makes people happy, but usually sad, depressed, angry. And in honor of these dead characters, comes this wonderful art project.

Ertaç Alt?nöz, or ertacaltinoz on Deviantart, took the more notable dead Game of Thrones characters from the TV show and gave them a Wight (GOT zombies) kind of makeover, with the way of death of something from the death scene itself showing in the image, sometimes as hint alone, creating a powerful collage of morbidity and beauty fused together.

Lyanna Stark

Died giving birth to Jon Snow.

Khal Drogo

Ned Stark

Got his head chopped off.

Robb Stark

This one really broke my heart. Couldn’t believe what I was reading when I made it to the passage in the books.

Catelyn Stark

Got her throat sliced. In the show, she stays dead. In the books…

Tywin Lannister

Got a crossbolt in his belly while trying to have a quiet evening in the bathroom.

Joffrey Baratheon/Lannister

Poisoned at his own wedding. Tough luck.

Ygritte

Got arrowed.

Oberyn Martell

Got his face smashed the f*** in.

Hodor… Just Hodor

Died casually leaning on a door.

Margaery Tyrell

Burned down in a gush of wildfire.

Ramsay Bolton/Snow

Shireen Baratheon

Turned into toast.

The Waif

Met Arya, tried to kill her, should have known better.

Arthur Dayne

Died like a knight should: With a sword in his hand.
