Andrew Dinn is right, there are plenty of hints about the "real" deaths of
WWII--one can easily imagine Pokler's visit to Dora to be an occasion when he
is brought face to face with the death produced by the war.  But except for
the few cases given in the last few posts on this subject, hardly any of the
fictional charaters die, and certainly none of the most significant (with
Pudding it was inevitable; and Peter Sachsa has to die to play his role in
the later seances).

As for Bianca, anyone whose interested might want to download my article on
Bianca from the fourth issue of *Postmodern Culture*.  If I remember the
codes, the article is filed under DUYFHU-1 and DUYFHU-2.
