The characters on Grey's Anatomy are often put in stressful situations, but which ones would survive in an actual horror movie?

What would happen if the medley of characters in the hit ABC medical drama Grey's Anatomy were to become part of a horror movie? In fact, what if the writers decided that the only way to go out with a bang--if they ever decide to end the series, that is,--is to kill off a large number of characters at once, either in a zombie attack or by setting a serial killer loose on the doctors and nurses at Grey Sloan Memorial?

Grey's has had a great many characters over the years, so it's impossible to rank all of them. But here's a look at all those who are most likley to get embroiled in a horror movieand die one by one.

Young Levi Schmitt is a comparatively recent addition tothe surgical residents atGrey's. Levi is shy and socially awkward and his character arc till now has been that of self-discovery and coming of age.

Levi would be highly vulnerable if the hospital were to be attacked by zombies or creepy, supernatural creatures or a madman with a hook perhaps. In fact, given that hs is both instantly likable and a bit muddled, he would surely be the first one to go.

Maggie Pierce is the half-sister of the brilliant Meredith Grey. She is kind, a bit low-profile but extremely smart in the sense that she topped her class consistently and became the youngest co-head of the department of cardiothoracic surgery at Grey Sloan Memorial.

However, Maggie's intellectual smartness might not be enough to keep her alive in a dangerous situation. She would most definitely give herself away and die rather early on.

The scatterbrained sister of Derek Shepherd would be without a doubt one of the firstfewto go in a horror movie. Amelia might keep the killer at bay for a while but given her usual string of bad fortune, her luck would run out pretty soon.

Amelia may be a remarkable neurosurgeon but in a situation where fate matters more than anything else, it's unlikely that she would survive past the first forty-five to fifty minutes.

Another character likely to die soon in a horror or a slasher movie would be April Kepner. Kepner is sweet, mild and god-fearing and easy bait for a killer or a malevolent spirit.

As shown in the episode, "Sanctuary" in season 6 of Grey'swhere April came face to face with the shooter who was out to get Derek, the young doctor managed to draw the shooter's attention away from herself by talking to him constantly. It's possible that Kepner would succeed in eluding the murderer in a horror movie for a while but then inevitably she would be killed.

Teddy, the co-head of cardiothoracic surgery along with Maggie at Grey Sloan, is smart and sensitive. She would probably also be saddled with two kids, the little boy Owen had adopted and her own little daughter.

Teddy has served as an army doctor which means that she is capable of quick-thinking in stressful circumstances. This might help her stay alive for a while. But sheis also the kind of person who would sacrifice herself to save her children. In a horror movie situation, Teddy's kids would most likely end up being with Meredith after their mother dies.

Andrew DeLuca might be able to evade a killer or a spirit or even zombies for a while. DeLuca has proven himself to be quite sensibleunder certain circumstances, he is also alert and a keen observer.

DeLuca might be able to lead others into safety for a while but then his natural bull in a china shop demeanor would surely surface and come in the way. He would probably try to hold off the killers or the zombies on his own and his heroism would cost him his life.

Another character who would make it until at least the second half of a horror movie until his hero complex might lead to his death is the dashing Atticus Lincoln.

Lincoln is sure to take the lead and guide the others as they maneuver around and stay on the run from a killer in a horror movie. But once again, like DeLuca, Link might try to be a hero while the others run for safety and thus lose his life horribly.

The smart and sensibleJackson Avery might be one of those in a horror movie who make it almost till the end and then dies needlessly, just when the audience thinks that the last body had already dropped.

Avery would be mature and calm in the way he would handle a horror movie situation. He would also lead the others to safety, but despite his sense of responsibility, he has also been shown to be impulsive at times like the time in Grey's he rushed inside a burning ambulance and brought a small child out alive. His last moment impulsiveness might make him one of the last people to die in a horror movie.

Thefeisty Miranda Bailey has been shown to be extremely capable of handling stress and does not collapse easily. It was Bailey whose quick-thinking kept her patient Mary and herself alive during the shootout at the hospital in season 6. Bailey would also have managed to save the life of the intern Charles Percy had the hospital not shut down the elevators.

In a horror movie, Bailey would keep steady nerves and be one of the least likely to die, if at all. She isin fact likely to be the sole person who would stay alive alongside the heroine till the very end, unless she is the heroine herself.

Without a doubt, Meredith Grey would be the least likely to drop off in a horror movie. She would be scared stiff, she would weep, and might even give up at times. But she would survive.

Like in every horror movie, Meredith would find herself alone or maybe one of only two people alive by the end of the film. She would have some very near-death experiences; after all, Meredith Grey has been throughsome very difficult times in her life that have only made her stronger. Being in that horrifying plane crash in "One Flight Down" at the end of season 8 was rather like being in a horror movie in itself. But in the end, she would make it, possibly with Miranda Bailey being the only other person by her side.
