Game Of Thrones Teases Something Scarier Than White Walkers!

Game Of Thrones fans are already terrified about season 8.
After all, if the first season of a show is willing to kill its lead, to what dark places is the LAST season ready to go??
Well, we now have one possible answer, and it’s scarier than an army of undead wights — ice spiders.

Old Nan tells little Bran about the ice spiders “as big as hounds” used by the White Walkers — and at the time viewers weren’t sure if she was making up campfire tales to scare the poor boy.
However, everything else she mentioned about the long winter has totally happened!
Cut to Thursday when author George R.R. Martin tweeted this art from the Song of Ice and Fire book calendar:

Those are… well, they’re bigger than hounds, that’s for sure.
Will we see the dreaded arachnids in the final battle between the living and the dead? Will we have to watch at least one fan favorite get eaten up by its cold mandibles??
*shiver*
Guess we’ll find out in April.
Sweet dreams, y’all!
