20 Best Game Of Thrones Deaths (So Far)

18. Renly Baratheon

Red Wedding
Gothamist

Death By: Shadow Dagger --- Killed By: Shadow Creature 

Renly Baratheon, brother of Stannis, was crowned King with the huge support from the powerful House Tyrell of Highgarden. 

The Red Woman, Stannis' advisor, gives 'birth' to a demon-esque shadow near a cave where Renly is encamped, consequently stabbing him through the chest. As a result, Brienne of Tarth pulls off a brilliant facial expression before entering Hulk mode to dominate two other members of the Kingsguard. 

This was a really creepy death that came out of nowhere, as he's executed by an indescribable being and his life leaves as the shadow does, with blood oozing from the open wound in his chest.
