Does Elizabeth Die in 1923?
Elizabeth is bitten by a wolf during the episode, leaving her fate in question. Though she is treated by a doctor and a nurse for rabies, the episode’s final minutes tease a possible cruel death for the character.
At some point in the evening, Elizabeth goes upstairs to her room, while the nurse chooses to sleep on the couch in the living room. Later on, Cara (played by Helen Mirren) hears a scream, and at first, it appears that Elizabeth could have been attacked by the wolf again.
However, Elizabeth does not die in episode 2 of season 2. Since she goes upstairs for the night and the nurse chooses to stay downstairs, the nurse is mauled by the wolf, and Elizabeth is spared.
