Hodor from Game of Thrones
The unfortunate demise of everyone's favorite disyllabic gentle giant Hodor (Kristian Nairn) utterly destroyed fans of the show. During Hodor’s final moments, he helped Bran (Isaac Hempstead Wright) and others escape from a wight-filled cave while the King of the Six Kingdoms warged to a moment from Hodor’s past. In Bran’s vision, the audience learns that Hodor, once named Wyllis, was able to speak perfectly fine until he heard a call from the future—hold the door. Ouch.
Bob Newby from Stranger Things
Joyce (Winona Ryder) nearly lost her youngest son in the first season of Stranger Things, so when she finally found love with kindhearted Bob (Sean Astin) in Season 2, it seemed like she might actually have the chance to be happy. Wrong. In a feat of pure heroism, Bob sacrificed himself to the demo-dogs at Hawkins Lab, and was torn to shreds as a result. Poor guy. Hopefully him and Barb are hanging out somewhere.
