Shakespeare's shortest play is The Comedy of Errors. Shakespeare's bloodiest play is Titus Andronicus. Shakespeare's shortest tragedy is Macbeth, but of course it is nowhere near his bloodiest tragedy (Macbeth body count: 4 murders, two deaths in battle, one suicide, probably; Hamlet body count: one murder before the play starts, two executions, an assasination, a probable suicide, a murder, and three people killed by accident; King Lear body count: one suicide, one murder, one execution, one death in battle, one man has his eyes poked out onstage and later dies, two more die fighting about it, and one dies of old age; Titus Andronicus body count: we start out with a parade of corpses, followed by human sacrifice, death in a swordfight, a murder, a rape and mutilation, two deaths by frame-up, self-mutilation, another murder, two culinary murders leading to acts of cannibalism, and three more people killed in a fight, a mercy killing and a man executed by being buried alive.)
