Well, she had just been married to Orpheus before she imediatly died from a poisonous snake bite. Then when Orpheus went to try to recieve her from the Underworld, he and Hades made a deal. She would follow behind Orpheus until the exit came , but he wasn't allowed to look behind him and if he did, Eurydice would have to go back to the Underworld. But when he came really close to the exit, he thought Hades was tricking him so he looked behind and saw Eurydice just before she was taken back to the Underworld. After that Orpheus was torn apart by angry Nymphs because he wouldn't dance with them. Later, the Nine Muses gave him a proper funeral before he joined his wife in the Underworld.
