Jon Snow dies at the end of Season 5. Episode 10, to be exact. The one titled “Mother’s Mercy.”
Remember the scene? It’s cold. It’s snowy. And his own Night’s Watch brothers—the guys he trusted—stab him. For the Watch, they yell. Yeah, right. It’s the ultimate betrayal, and it leaves you screaming at your TV.
I mean, who doesn’t remember that gut-punch? You probably threw a pillow at the screen. I know I did.
Wait, Didn’t He Come Back?
Yes! And that’s where the trick question lies. Jon Snow dies in Season 5, but he gets resurrected in Season 6.
It’s like he took a long, cold, dead vacation. He’s gone for the first few episodes of Season 6. Then, boom—Melisandre does her red-priestess magic, and Jon gasps back to life.
So, if you’re asking “when is he dead-dead?”—it’s the finale of Season 5. End of story. Well, end of that story.
