Question: What's an accidental/possible real death plot idea!?
Hello, all!. I am currently working on a story in which the antagonist has extreme dislike for a character, and spends much of the story talking about how he'd like to kill the other!. Ultimately, I'd like the other character to die, but have his death be ambiguous enough that the protagonist is unsure if she should suspect the antagonist!. So I need some ideas of "accidental" deaths that might probably be real!. I kept thinking of falling downstairs, but I'm not sure how likely that really is!. I'd like it to be a little creative, if possible!. Anyone have any ideas!? Thanks in advance!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Um, let me see!.!.!.!.
1!.) Being on regular medication and switching it with another one
2!.) Standing on a wobbly balcony and having it fall a great length
3!.) Sitting by a bathtub and falling in, breaking their back, and then drowning
4!.) The soon-to-be-dead person could be on a boat!. The deck could be slippery (maybe they spilled their drink) and they slipped over the edge
5!.) Working a gun and accidentally shooting yourself
6!.) The person could have been hit by a car!. The driver then could have panicked and thrown the body in a random backyard (of course, this isn't really accidental, but the backyard could belong to the homicidal person)
7!.) Mixing an alcoholic beverage with pills
8!.) A loose wire in the house could start a fire in the house!. The person who dies could have been sleeping
Most of these deaths would be more likely to occur with someone older!. If you haven't gone too far in the story yet, I would suggest having the person who dies be older!. That way, there are a lot more ways they can "accidentally" die!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
