Winter is here and so are our predictions. Preparing for the long winter ahead, a combination of predictions from myself, friends and family about what we believe is going to happen during season 8 of the world-wide loved television show: Game of Thrones. There may be potential spoilers so read at your own discretion.

1. So much death

Giphy

" I believe that during season eight, Jon and Daenerys will have a child and she will die during childbirth. The Ice King will not only kill Tormund, but also Sam or Gilly. Arya may potential die due to her recklessness and prominent idea set on killing people on her list. Cersei will end up doing something stupid that results in the death of her brother Jaime because he will sacrifice himself for her. Sansa will have to kill Ceresi for some unknown reason and during the season finale, Jon Snow will sacrifice himself to destroy the Ice King to save those he loves. Their son will then rule over the Seven Kingdoms with his dragons."

4. Night King

Giphy

"My GOT prediction is that most of the main characters will die in the battle against the white walkers, and if anyone sits on the throne it will be the Night King. He is the only kings who don't have any other conflicts other than the war. Plus he can change anything he touches. I think they are building Jon up too much, every other person who was king has died."

6. Betrayal

Giphy

"Jaime will kill Cersei. I also think that Cersei's pregnancy is a lie, or that she will die before giving birth. Basically, everyone will die."

- Candace

While some theories are not as complex as other, one thing is common throughout each prediction: death. Everyone knows that directors and writers love to kill off all the great people, typically in horrible ways within this series. It can easily be seen that the writers and directors of the final season will kill off unexpecting characters in unexpecting ways to leave us distraught in our grief.
