Princesses being killed - Because they tried to scare us with stuff like Luna becoming Nightmare Moon, Celestia laying motionless before Twilight, and of course Tirek sending the princesses to Tartarus

Evil ponies from before coming back from the dead - That'll be Chrysalis and Sombra, and only because people like them so much they want to believe they survived and can make a return.
