Warning: Possible spoiler alert.

Fans of Game of Thrones may or may not have noticed a little something something in the opening credits which could explain a few things.

In the season 7 premiere, Hound saw something in the fire…

He said he saw the army of the dead walking around the gigantic wall, built for the sole purpose of keeping them out.

Hound’s vision left a lot of GoT fans confused – if the army of the walking dead could just walk around the wall, why hadn’t they done it before now?

Buzzfeed reports that very answer might just lie in the opening credits.

Here’s a shot of the Wall from Season 6, Episode one:

Can you spot the difference? Look again.

That’s right, the sea appears to be freezing over, which could explain it all, the army could well walk around the wall after all.

Interesting…
