'Legacies': Fans speculate on who dies first in the show, knowing showrunner Julie Plec's penchant for killing characters

Showrunner Julie Plec, who also developed 'The Originals/The Vampire Diaries' universe, is known for writing in at least one tragic character death in the first season of her shows

CW's 'Legacies' is almost halfway through its first season and so far, we've had no deaths. We've had some close encounters with terrifying monsters but all the students of Salvatore School for the Young and the Gifted have remained unharmed. Hope Mikaelson and the Saltzman twins have found a way to keep everyone safe, every single time. However, fans believe this happiness may be short-lived. 

Showrunner Julie Plec, who also served as showrunner for the 'The Originals/The Vampire Diaries' universe, is known for writing in at least one tragic character death in the first season. Fans are speculating that for 'Legacies' first season, it will definitely be Milton Greasley aka MG. The speculations arose after last week's episode 'Mombie Dearest'. The episode featured a number of zombies and MG, along with Hope and Penelope Park fight them off and rescue Josie Saltzman.
