As Cersei Lannister famously put it, "When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die." And there have been A LOT of deaths on the hit HBO show.

We're talking triple-digit dirt naps, folks.

There are, of course, the deaths that made you cry -- such as Hodor and Ned Stark -- and the murders that made you cheer -- Ramsay Bolton and Joffrey Baratheon, to name a few. But they're not the only ones who are dead and ready for resurrection by the Night King (because -- like the Clegane Bowl -- you absolutely know that's going to happen in Season 8).

And that death list is sure to grow when the final season of Game of Thrones premieres on April 14.

Before Season 8 starts, let's take a stroll down In Memoriam Lane as we remember the ones we've lost in Westeros. For the sake of brevity, we've omitted some of the lower-level murders. Apologies to the nameless soldiers who were brutally killed.
