He vaguely mentions that the death of Antigone will lead to the death of another. [Meaning his father.] This threat is followed through with, but not in the intended manner. When Creon goes to release Antigone from her living grave, Haemon is inside grieving Antigone's suicide. When he tries to kill his father (as he intended), his sword misses his father & he turns on it himself. [Still seeing that the threat is completed.]
Haemon and Eurydice die after Antigone dies in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone hangs herself in the walled-up cave to which she is sentenced to be buried alive. Prince Haemon, her first cousin and groom-to-be, stabs himself with his own sword when he finds Antigone's dead body. Queen Eurydice, Haemon's mother and Antigone's intended mother-in-law, stabs herself with a knife when she hears of the two suicides.

Theban King Creon was the brother of Queen Jocasta. He was the father of Haemon. Jocasta was the mother of Antigone. So Creon was Antigone's uncle, and Jocasta Haemon's aunt. That made the betrothed couple Antigone and Haemon first cousins.

Haemon and Creon are both characters in Antigone by Sophocles. Haemon visits his father, Creon, to tell him not to kill Antigone.
Haemon is Antigone's love in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone is engaged to her first cousin, Prince Haemon. She never makes any reference to him by name. In contrast, Haemon speaks constantly about his betrothed. Additionally, Princess Ismene, Antigone's sister, talks of the great love that Antigone has for Haemon and vice versa.
Yes, Haemon dies in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Prince Haemon is engaged to his first cousin, Theban Princess Antigone. She breaks a recently issued Theban law against non-burial of the disloyal Theban dead. The sentence is death, and Antigone ends up killing herself. When Haemon finds Antigone dead, he tries unsuccessfully to kill his father, Theban King Creon, for having sentenced Antigone to death, and then most successfully turns his own sword on himself.
No. Haemon says to Creon, "...And dying she'll destroy--someone else," and Creon, blinded by his ego, automatically takes this as a threat to himself, when in reality his son is telling him that he, Haemon, will not survive his future bride's death.
