7 most heartbreaking and upsetting deaths on show

Which "Game of Thrones" death got you most upset? Check out seven most shocking, heartbreaking and upsetting deaths on show.

If you are a hardcore follower of the show, chances are that you've watched it give you a heartbreaking, shocking and upsetting death of a character you loved.

The seventh season didn't give us any heartbreaking death, unless we are talking about the unexpected death of  Viserion, carried out by the Night King.

But, the show has enough deaths to make a graveyard.

Pulse Movies has put together seven times "Game of Thrones" broke our hearts and left us upset.

1. Talisa Stark

She wasn't exactly a strong character, but it was heartbreaking watching a pregnant woman get stabbed to death.

Talisa, who was married to Robb Stark, passed away in Season 3, episode 9, "The Rains of Castamere."

And to think her death would have been avoided if Robb had not taken his wife and unborn child to a party organized by an enemy, Walder Frey.

Remember Robb violated his deal with the Freys to marry one of his daughters?

2. Jon Snow

Yes, we know he is still alive and having incestual sex, but his death in the Season 5 finale "Mother's Mercy" remains the most talked about on the show.

The then Lord Commander of the Night's Watch was stabbed by Alliser Thorne and Olly for supporting the Wildings.

It was difficult for viewers to accept that their favourite Stark was dead. That was until he was resurrected in season six by the Red Woman.

3. Walda Bolton

Walda was Roose Bolton's wife, Ramsay Bolton's step mother and Walder Frey's daughter.

We shouldn't care about her, but she was killed in Season 6, episode 2, "Home" by Ramsay, who fed her and her son to his hounds.

4. Robb Stark

We should blame Robb for the death of the Starks at the Red Wedding. He was a noble man, but we are not so sure we would describe him as wise.

After he broke his promise to marry one of Walder Frey's daughters, he still accepted an invitation to a party organized by the Freys.

He was killed in Season 3, episode 9, "The Rains of Castamere" with an arrow by a Frey before Roose Bolton ended his life by stabbing him.

5. Ned Stark

This was the first heartbreaking death on the show.

Probably the most honourable man in Westeros, he was beheaded by Illyn Payne, on the order of the vicious King Joffrey.

If we survived Stark's death, then we can survive any other death on "Game of Thrones."

6. Catelyn Stark

The Lady of Winterfell was a victim of the Red Wedding which also took Robb and Talisa. She was killed by Black Walder, whoslit her throat.

What remains heartbreaking about her death is that she had to watch her daughter-in-law, grandchild and son's death.

7. Shireen

Who burns a little girl alive? It was upsetting to watch Stannis Baratheon's smart and sweet daughter die just because Melissandre said the sacrifice would ensure Stannis' place on the throne.

She was burned alive as a sacrifice to the Lord of Light, on her father's order.

Which of these was the most heartbreaking for you?
