Even though The Simpsons primarily maintains the status quo, throughout the run of the series, several characters, both recurring and one-time, have died. Additionally, multiple characters have been jokingly killed off during the Treehouse of Horror episodes.

Deaths during the series[edit]

Before Season 1/Unknown[edit]

Season 1[edit]

  • No deaths.

Season 2[edit]

  • Beatrice Simmons, died of a burst ventricle "Old Money", although Abraham Simpson says that it was actually a "broken heart", after he was unable to attend her birthday party .

Season 3[edit]

Season 4[edit]

Season 5[edit]

Season 6[edit]

  • Bleeding Gums Murphy, died in hospital from illness in "'Round Springfield".
  • SuperDude, the school gerbil, crushed by his water bottle in "Who Shot Mr. Burns? (Part One)".
  • Dr. Marvin Monroe, It is unknown whether Marvin Monroe is actually dead. In "Who Shot Mr. Burns? (Part Two)", the hospital Burns attends is called The Marvin Monroe Memorial Hospital, and since that, his gravestone has been seen. Most prominently, in "The Simpsons 138th Episode Spectacular" one of the trivia questions asked was "Which two popular characters have died in the past year?" With the answer being, "If you said Bleeding Gums Murphy and Dr. Marvin Monroe you were wrong, they were never popular," indicating he is dead. However, Marvin Monroe re-appeared ten years later in the episode "Diatribe of a Mad Housewife", saying that he has been "very sick". If his death had taken place, it is estimated to have happened some time during Season Six.

Season 7[edit]

Season 8[edit]

Frank Grimes tombstone.

Season 9[edit]

Season 10[edit]

  • Mr. Pinchy, Homer Simpson's pet lobster, was accidentally cooked to death when the bath water he was in was too hot. An extremely upset Homer ate Mr. Pinchy later at dinner in "Lisa Gets an "A"".
  • Red Barclay, died in "Maximum Homerdrive" after a beef-eating contest. Dr. Hibbert, a partner of the steakhouse, says he died of beef poisoning, although it was "probably from some other restaurant".
  • Mother bird, Bart Simpson accidentally shoots the bird with Nelson Muntz's BB gun. The gun had a crooked sight, which meant that despite the fact that Bart was aiming away from the bird, he still killed it. Bart had to look after her eggs, in "Bart the Mother".

Season 11[edit]

  • Maude Flanders, died in "Alone Again, Natura-Diddily" when she was knocked off a racetrack grandstand by t-shirts shot from cannons. She was killed off due to problems with her voice actress Maggie Roswell. Maude's death is considered to be the most show-changing death, and affected Ned Flanders in several episodes after the incident.
  • Cornelius Chapman, the only man in Springfield older than Mr. Burns (at 108 years old). He died onstage from a heart attack after a kiss on the cheek from Britney Spears. Fittingly enough, he was receiving an award for Springfield's Oldest Man in "The Mansion Family".
  • The Laramie Cigarette Team died when the helicopter exploded at the hands of a Tomacco addicted sheep (who was the only survivor.)

  • Nick Callahan, mauled by sea otter after Dr. Hibbert throws all pills from his wife in "The Yellow Lotus".

Treehouse of Horror deaths[edit]

Note: Treehouse of Horror deaths are kept separate due to the nature of Treehouse of Horror episodes. Treehouse of Horror episodes aren't continuous with the rest of the series, giving the writers the possibility of killing off important characters without having to create a replacement or write them out of the series (e.g. in Treehouse of Horror XV, Homer obliterates Springfield, but the series continues on.)

"Treehouse of Horror"[edit]

  • Lenore, referred to as "Lost Lenore" in "The Raven" segment.

"Treehouse of Horror II"[edit]

  • No deaths.

"Treehouse of Horror III"[edit]

"Treehouse of Horror IV"[edit]

"Treehouse of Horror V"[edit]

  • Groundskeeper Willie, stabbed in the back with an axe in each of the three mini-episodes, all while trying to help the main character of the episode. In the third death he replies that he's "bad at this."
  • Patty Bouvier, revealed to have died in an alternate universe. The cause of her death, however, is not mentioned.
  • Selma Bouvier, revealed to have died in an alternate universe. The cause of her death, however, is not mentioned.
  • Various students of Springfield Elementary School including Jimbo Jones, Üter, Wendell, Milhouse, Bart, and Lisa, killed by the school staff. It is possible that all of the children were killed and eaten, with the exception of Ralph who was never shown to be sent to detention.
    • Note that the people killed in the third segment didn't die because it was in Bart's nightmare.

"Treehouse of Horror VI"[edit]

  • Groundskeeper Willie, burnt to death after Homer Simpson turned the heating up to high. However, he showed up just fine at the end of the episode, getting off a bus. He attempted to scare Bart, Lisa, and Maggie, but was last seen chasing the bus he got off of because he had forgotten he left his gun on the seat.
  • Martin Prince, strangled to death by Willie.
  • Kent Brockman, killed by a billboard version of himself when it came to life, although he is seen alive later on in the same segment.
  • Otto Mann and a school bus of students, killed by a billboard of the Devil come to life.
  • Captain of the High School Basketball team, shot by Chief Wiggum who thought he was a monster.
