True Blood would not be True Blood without death! The writers have shocked the viewers time and time again with surprise characters deaths since season one. To pay my respects to the fallen, I have compiled a list of the "10 Biggest Deaths" in True Blood history.
10. Roman Zimojic
Although Roman was only with us for a short time, his death was both huge and shocking because of the caliber of actor who portrayed him- no one expected Christopher Meloni to sign onto the series and last only a handful of episodes as the Guardian of the Vampire Authority before being staked through the heart by Russell Edgington.
9. Adele Stackhouse
No one saw the brutal murder of Sookie's kindly grandmother coming! Few deaths have had such a lasting impact on the characters left behind, with Adele being perhaps the most referenced deceased character throughout the series.
8. Maryann Forrester
The main antagonist of season 2, Maryann was mysterious, psychotic and seemingly invincible. Up until her final moments, it seemed unlikely that the people of Bon Temps would ever be able to destroy this crazy maenad!
7. Queen Sophie-Anne
Although no one really expected Bill to perish in his battle with the much older and stronger Queen Sophie-Anne at the end of season 4, it was a shock to discover Bill's decades old alliance with Nan Flanagan and the AVL which lead to the bloody death of the Queen of Louisiana.
6. Nan Flanagan
The highly sarcastic and witty spokeswoman for the AVL and Chancellor of the Authority, Nan Flanagan always seemed untouchable, until her position of power slowly deteriorated over the course of Season 4, culminating in her unexpected death at the hands of Bill Compton in the season finale.
5. Nora Gainesborough
This former Chancellor of the Authority and member of the Sanguinistas, was the beloved vampire sister of Eric and progeny of Godric. Nora has the distinction of being the first victim of the deadly Hepatitis V, and her death scene was among the most gruesome of the True Death's seen on True Blood, and one of the only moments seen to cause Eric to cry.
4. Alcide Herveaux
Poor Alcide never really stood a chance- he constantly put himself in harms way in order to protect his beloved Sookie, only to never have her truely love him back. If only he had of stayed in Mississippi, he never would have feel victim to the anti-supernatural vigilantes in Bon Temps.
3. Terry Bellefleur
One of the most emotional death scenes in True Blood history! Who didn't shed a tear as Arlene sung to her husband Terry as he slowly passed away from a fatal gunshot wound in season 6 or during the emotional scenes that followed in subsequent episodes?
2. Godric
The death of this two thousand year old vampire devastated his progeny, Eric, providing the viewer with the first glimpse at the Viking vampires capacity for loyalty and love and is one of the most memorable moments of season 2.
Tara has the distinction of being the first top-billed regular character to meet the True Death, and that is why her death was undoubtedly the biggest in True Blood history, despite the insulting off-screen nature of her demise and the bizarre storyline that followed this gigantic characters death in the season 7 premiere.
