How did Creon meet his fate in Antigone?

As a result of his stubborn attitude and refusing to listen to Antigone, Haemon, and the citizens of Thebes, Creon blinds himself to the true situation. In the end, what results from this is that his son Haemon commits suicide to die along with his lover, Antigone, and his wife, Eurydice, also commits suicide. Another of his sons, Megareus, had died earlier after Creon sacrificed him to save Thebes (Tiresias the seer had told him that Thebes would guaranteed a victory against the Seven Against Thebes if Megareus was sacrificed). Cursing Creon for his stubbornness and blaming him for the death of their two sons, Eurydice stabs herself with a sword. Thus, because of Creon's own selfishness and short-sightedness, he met his fate: his entire family was killed, and a descendant of an earlier Theban king, named Lycus, kills Creon and takes the crown. In the end, Creon lost everything.
