I feel like the list is backwards. Having to walk naked through the town is not worse than watching your child die before you and then starving to death.

[@marissasue319]

Aren't both on par, though?? 🤔 Think about it 🤷🏼

[@danmarusan2878]

@@marissasue319, not in the slightest. Walking half naked through a town is humiliating but it's over very quickly when compared to Ellaria's fate. The worst thing that can happen to parents is to lose their children. Not only is she forced to watch her daughter die from poison right in front of her, she is just outside of her reach, so she can't hold her hand or gently touching her or give her a last kiss. Which means both couldn't even comfort one another before their deaths, had no chance to say good bye. And the suffering does not end there: the mother now watches the body of her daughter decay right in front of her, is force fed in order to prolong her suffering and the light allways stays on so she can see her daughter's rotting corpse. I don't know how long Ellaria was kept alive, but it's not far fetched so say that this torment was going on for at least a few weaks or months. This poor soul's fate is by far the worst and not compareable to anything on this list.

The Martell's fate was probably the most horrifying in the dungeon but in terms of pure suffering i think Theon takes the cake.

[@danawinslett7505]

Not saying anyone would ever deserve this level of torture and humiliation, but people forget that he not only betrayed the family who regarded him as a brother (even more so than they did their actual relation, Jon Snow), but brutally murdered two innocent boys to pass off as Bran and Rickon.

Ellaria doesn't even die from starvation. After poisoning her daughter, Cersei says that she'll be given food and if Ellaria refuses to eat, they'll force-feed her.

It's the worst fate in the show my opinion. (After what Ramsay did to Jeyne in the books and maybe what he did to Sansa in the series would come close after.) Rape is already horrific, traumatizing, gross, scary and one of the worst things you can do to another person, but then the fact that it was the mountain, oh god. The mountain is a GIANT man, he's strong, tall, big and gross to look at (sorry not sorry), he could break her with that. AND she's a NUN. Nuns don't have sex because of their religion, that means she was a VIRGIN too, that is horrific.

Clearly whoever came up with this list doesn’t have children, bc Ellaria’s fate is def the worst. The worst thing in the world to a parent is seeing your child suffer.

[@user-avatar808]

I would have included the fate of Sister Unella who Cersei tied up and smiled when the Sister said she was ready to die. Cersei telling her, die? You misunderstand let me introduce you to Sir Gregor Clegane. As Cersei walks away yelling Shame, Shame Shame, all you hear is Sister Unella screaming. That was a top 10 fate worse than death.

[@heatherwheeler8330]

The book torture of Theon is so much worse than the show, by the end of it, he looked like a weakened old man instead of a strong man of his early to mid 20s

[@The_Chimera]

So you're just gonna ignore that Ramsay made Theon watch him assault Sansa? He is definitely in the top 3, if anything.

[@annirage1717]

How about the girls who had to marry their father, and having to sacrifice their sons

[@MartynStanleyAuthor]

You missed that nun woman that got given to the Mountain? She had a pretty rough fate.

[@rustam6128]

Theon has the worst fate you can even imagine. The sadist erased his personality, this is definitely worse that 1000 deaths

[@godfunk]

So, nothing about the Septa that gets revenge tortured by Zombie Clegane?!

[@davidvitale9338]

I think the torture of Theon is so horrific because of the realism and the length it went on. At some point I just said "enough" and and to skip ahead a bit. In spite of the $hitty person he was, watching the torture was pretty disturbing.

[@erikblaas5826]

I would have at least the fates of Theon and Edmure swapped, although Edmure was imprisoned and threatened to be killed he did not had the cruel turture to endure that Ramsey had for Theon.

[@imrlaps7097]

The point is, he was powerless to help his family and friends, And That IS torture.

[@RameshSingh-tf6fn]

@@imrlaps7097 Well, he never cared for his family, friends or otherwise.

[@Banyo__]

Experiencing the death of your daughter, then seeing and smelling her rotting corpse everyday is beyond f'd up. Game of Thrones always seemed so unrelenting and cruel. I remember a writer from another show talking about why they killed off a beloved character midseason, and he said because that happens in real life. You wake up, you say goodbye to someone and they die in a car crash, and that's it. Life is not always sanitized and perfect. Cruel things don't just happen to the worst of people, they happen to innocent people as well.

[@NomadicCreator]

Thought Cersai putting the "SHAME" woman (was she tied?) into a room with the Mountain, whom she then told to "have fun" with said woman might've made at least to the honourable mentions, 😨?!

[@JHAldy10]

The loss of her children was Cercei’s fate worse than death. She would have suffered a daily walk of shame in exchange for the life of any one of her children.

[@XxRadioactiveGirlxX]

The walk of shame? THAT'S your top pick? After ALL you put in this bloody list? One of the most Psycholocally disturbing moments in the show? Did we watch the same show??

Hey! Where's the bit with ol' "Shame" Nun getting stuck in that room with Quasi-Zombie thingamabob Monster Mountain guy? That's gotta be a horrifying way to go. Lord knows what sort of... stuff... he did to her and the fact that Cersei said she would still be kept alive for a long while... Cersei's "Walk of Shame" is a trip to Disney World compared to that!

[@dmlly7311]

Varys' castrator who he found and kept in a hatch to torture for life needed a spot here.

[@Champion-hx8sy]

I legit find Jorah being healed satisfying, his stone stuff being removed is cool

[@drfabulous2804]

Surprised that Daxus and Dorea’s fate wasn’t on here or Cercei’s fate in having all her children die brutally, also Whatever Varys did to the guy who cut him, and everything Joffrey did to those prostitutes could be honourable mentions. And honestly number 2 and 1 should be at the end of the list imo, unless it was a list in no particular order of how awful the fates were.

[@beccablueeyes99]

What happened to Tyrion’s first love was a living hell also. Wasn’t in the show aside from a brief mention, but damn.

[@bartholomewhunt1874]

Martells fate is easily the worst on here. It lasts the longest and has loved ones involved. Theons next.

[@dembeku346]

The writing of season 8 should be on this list

[@shagger1288]

I think you lot are underestimating theons torture lol

[@Stadt101]

Ok, I think the gravity of the Nun being raped by the mountain is really being misunderstood here. Mountain wasn't just Mountain, he was Zombie Mountain. Also being raped doesn't mean you die when he or they are finished, really the only thing that kills the woman is being killed after its over. Truthfully that nun could have lived for a week or more if they fed her if and as long as he doesn't damage her to the point of her bleeding out. Or and heres what could really be messed up, Zombie Mountain can think, he does remember, what if she were to turn into a zombie cause well I feel like getting stroked by and or stroking a Zombie isn't much different then getting bit or scratched... meaning she would retain her memory for the most part, and know whats happening to her, and never being able to die...... Cersei even said it to her! Some Fates are worse than Death!

At least in Theon's case, his treatment in the books is a good deal worse, it was so gruesome they couldn't go into some of the more gory details.

[@darenabryant9100]
