10 Most Unexpected Horror TV Show Deaths
7. Ilana - Lost
A bit of a cheat entry, but Lost's implementation of light horror and supernatural elements earn it a spot. Before J. J. Abrams built his name on the mystery box formula, he put together the ambitious if ultimately disappointing Lost.
Set on an uncharted island in the aftermath of a plane crash, a collection of survivors are forced to survive against hostile natives, natural hazards and an elusive smoke monster that lurks in the jungle.
Unfortunately, Ilana's time on the show was short lived as in season 6 she goes out with a bang. It's a seemingly simple conversation between characters as she packs some dynamite before heading on an expedition. Unfortunately for our heroes, she's the last person you'd want to handle some deadly explosives.
Without warning, Ilana drops the bag of dynamite on the ground and triggers the sticks prematurely. One of the more underused characters in the show is gone in an instant. The reactions to this sudden death range from shock to pure hilarity. Some felt it added to the show's unpredictable events and others thought the writers took the easy way out with a character they no longer needed. In any case, it's still one of the quickest deaths in small screen history.
