About

Is Shakespeare Really Dead? refers to an image macro and reaction image of the famous English poet and playwright William Shakespeare with a red arrow pointing at him and a bottom caption implying that he might not be dead. The image and its catchphrase spread memetically, notably in 2025, to joke about surprisingly good writing in popular media, hinting that whoever wrote the contemporary work is a modern Shakespeare or Shakespeare himself. Its use is reminiscent of the Gunna Writing Fire and Hold Up!! His Writing Is This Fire??? memes.
