Top 10 Saddest The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes Deaths
Saddest deaths in the prequel to The Hunger Games, Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. Also, it's possible that Lucy Gray didn't die in the forest, though she's dead by the time the original trilogy takes place. That's why I didn't add her.Snow's ex-best friend from District 2. He was executed by the Capitol for joining the District 12 escape plan.
The male tribute from District 12. He was killed by a fall after contracting rabies.
The origin of the Hanging Tree song. Hanged after causing a rebel explosion that killed three people.
The female tribute from District 7. She was killed by Coral.
The male tribute from District 10. He was betrayed by Coral, who stabbed him with a trident. Mizzen finished him off.
The male tribute from District 8. He was killed by Coriolanus Snow.
The female tribute from District 10. She was killed by the Capitol after she killed her mentor, Arachne Crane (who, by the way, had the most deserved death in BSS).
The male tribute from District 2. He was mercy-killed by Lamina after he was caught escaping the arena, beaten, and then tied up.
I believe this was the saddest because even though she was going to die, it was still sad to see her unknowingly drink the water with the poison and die. It made me cry, even though she had low screen time.
The female tribute from District 11. She died of convulsions from tuberculosis. I mainly included her here because of how long she was probably suffering.
Mizzen was so young and had great potential to become something significant in District Four. I know he helped betray Tanner, but he just wanted to go home. No one deserves to die by falling and snapping their neck after being injured by drones. Teslee was supposed to be smart. How could Mizzen have helped her get up on the other pole? Still, Mizzen was probably my favorite character.
Yes, he did help betray Tanner and assist Coral in hunting other tributes, but he's 13. He's only one year older than Rue.
She was so small and might have been younger than Mizzen. The way Wovey said, "Is it over?" "Can we go home now?" "Please," had me crying.
I know Coral was seen as the big bad guy, but she just wanted to return to District Four. Who wouldn't want to go home? In the book, I think it was kind of her to wrap Mizzen's knee. She saw that he was hurt, so she helped him. She stuck with him through the entire Games.
I get that she betrayed Tanner and killed Lamina, but this was the Hunger Games. She needed to kill to survive. If she hadn't betrayed Tanner, he would have killed her. And no one deserves to be bitten to death by snake mutts.
Although no one really knows what happens to Lucy Gray, she has to die eventually, right?
During The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, Lucy Gray Baird was my favorite character. She was so outgoing and enthusiastic. I also loved how friendly she was to the Capitol citizens and the District. She is definitely the best character, am I right?
She was killed when Coral and Mizzen chased her with a trident.
He was killed by Lucy Gray with a snake mutt.
She was killed by shrapnel after the escape attempt.
I know Reaper seemed like a bad guy and all, but really, he wasn't. He showed respect to all the tributes who died and accepted his own death. He even tried to warn Wovey.
He showed respect to the fallen tributes. Should have died in the way he did.
