It is by suicide that the three sudden deaths occur in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone hangs herself by the halter of her dress. Prince Haemon, her betrothed and first cousin, turns his own sword upon himself. His mother, Queen Eurydice, uses a sharp knife to stab herself to death.
Yes, Creon is responsible for at least three deaths in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon sentences his niece, Princess Antigone, to death by live burial and starvation. He hopes that she will kill herself long before she naturally gasps her last breath. He gets his wish when Antigone hangs herself. But the suicides of Prince Haemon, Antigone's betrothed and Creon's son, and of Queen Eurydice, Haemon's mother and Creon's wife, follow in quick succession. Creon causes all of the deaths to happen through his first cruel sentencing of a young girl who chooses the gods over him.
Fighting Thebans, invading Argives, and Oedipus' two sonsare killed in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. -- 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, a battle takes place before the action of the play and is referenced throughout by the main characters. In that battle, disloyal Thebans led by Polyneices and supported by invading forces from Argos as well as Thebans loyal to Eteocles kill each other off. In the course of the play, three more deaths occur. But each one is a suicide: Princess Antigone, Prince Haemon and Queen Eurydice.
Father to son is the relationship between Creon and Haemon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon and Queen Eurydice are the parents of three children. Their daughter Megara and their son Menoeceus die violent deaths. Prince Haemon is their sole surviving child and heir.
Oedipus, the mythical king of Thebes, is Antigone's dad. The irony though, is that since Oedipus married his mother, he is also Antigone's brother. You can read all about this in the Three Theban Plays by Sophocles.

"Oedipus the King" and "Oedipus at Colonus" are the two plays that are associated with the play "Antigone."Specifically, all three of the plays were written by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E>). Antigone was the daughter of disgraced Theban King Oedipus. The three plays tell the story of what happens to Oedipus and his children and half-siblings Antigone, Eteocles, Ismene and Polyneices.
Polyneices' burial, Antigone's trial and Teiresias' prediction are three major events in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the burial of Polyneices is a major event because it activates the conflict between Theban Princess Antigone and King Creon. Antigone's trial is a second major event because it sets in motion the fatal responses of Antigone, Prince Haemon and Queen Eurydice to Antigone's live burial and suicide. Teiresias' prediction is a third major event because it starts up the process of reversing the non-burial edict and overthrowing Creon.
The prevention of three deaths is the effect if Creon changes his mind earlier in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon does not change his mind about his non-burial edict until after meeting with his son Prince Haemon, then Teiresias the blind prophet and finally the chorus leader. Between the first two meetings, Princess Antigone is escorted to her live burial in a cave outside Thebes. A change in mind at that point or between the second and third meetings may have prevented the suicides in quick succession of Antigone, Haemon and Haemon's mother Queen Eurydice.
A series of three plays is the part of "Antigone" by Sophocles(495 B.C.E. -- 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, "Antigone" is chronologically last in the series. It is preceded chronologically by "Oedipus at Colonus." This play in turn is preceded chronologically by "Oedipus the Rex."
