All 13 deaths in The Fall of the House of Usher ranked from worst to best

13. Annabelle Lee

Ah, sweet Annabel Lee. Just when we thought there might be a glimmer of hope in the midst of all the Usher family chaos, she comes in as a ray of sunshine. Roderick even gives her a nod for passing down the good vibes gene to Lenore.

Stricken with grief over how much her babies had changed over the course of her divorce from Roderick Usher, she takes her own life when her children cling to the Usher estate and money – things she didn’t have and always felt she fell short of not having them. It’s truly the saddest death in this show, and it hits hard for those who can relate to it even in the slightest bit.

A sweet and legitimately good-natured person, her biggest mistake was getting involved with Roderick Usher. She was a loving mother to Frederick and Tamerlane (who turned out to be complete assholes, much like their father), and the best thing she did for herself was leave the Usher family. However, it ultimately didn’t matter as she also ended up paying the ultimate price in Roderick and Madeleine’s game: her life.

Totally did not deserve it.
