Let’s be honest: After last week’s The Walking Dead season 7 premiere took a baseball bat to the heads of two beloved characters, you probably don’t need to be reminded about the AMC series’ propensity for offing its core cast members in brutal, heartbreaking ways. But hey, if you felt like pouring a little salt in the open wound left by the ghastly deaths of Glenn (Steven Yeun) and Abraham (Michael Cudlitz) last week, Us Weekly Video has just the thing for you: a supercut of the most devastating deaths ever to occur on the show. Watch it above!
Presented in no particular order, this little trip down memory lane has everything you need to spend the rest of the day sobbing in the fetal position over all The Walking Dead has taken (and taken, and taken) from us over the years.
There are the painfully recent losses we’re still reeling from (Glenn); there are the old ones we nevertheless still feel misty about (Hershel); and of course, there are the ones we’d almost managed to scrub from our memories but will now be having nightmares about afresh for the rest of our damn lives. (Remember when Noah was turned into hamburger by zombies while Glenn watched helplessly, trapped between the glass panels of a revolving door? You will now! You’ll remember it forever.)
Did your favorite mind-blowing, terrible moment make the cut? Or did your most mourned character get left off the list?
Check out the video above to see whose deaths rocked the world of The Walking Dead in the worst way — and if your fave is still alive, please enjoy the deeply upsetting reminder that they might not be by the time the credits roll on the season 7 finale. Just saying.
The Walking Dead airs on AMC Sundays at 9 p.m. ET.
