10 Most Messed Up Deaths In Hannibal
8. Franklyn Froideveaux
This death is both shocking, sad, and also one of the few bloodless deaths to happen on the show. Franklyn Froidevaux was a patient of the psychologist Hannibal, and was a simple cheese lover who badly wanted a friend and was often worried his thoughts meant he was a monster.
Essentially a harmless (but weird) individual, Franklyn became infatuated by Hannibal and began to stalk him with his best friend Tobias Budge, who himself was a serial killer that turned people into violin chords (it's a long story).
But Tobias was found out by Will Graham, leading the killer to go confront Hannibal, the only other person that knew his secret. Sadly Franklyn was in a meeting with Hannibal at the time, and was trapped between the two as they intended to kill each other.
Franklyn only wanted to help Tobias, and was trying to get him to turn himself in when Hannibal walks up behind Franklyn and snaps his neck. Franklyn's death showed audiences that Hannibal is not a good person and kills his prey without remorse, even those who are innocent entities.
