Taking the scenic route from his recruitment drive in Season 5's "Hardhome," the bolstered ranks of the Army of the Dead finally made moves to conquer the realm of men in Season 7. While we have already seen the valiant Viserion come back to life as the blue-eyed servant of the Night King, fans are told to expect some more of our favorite faces to get a zombie remodeling in the show's final season.

In Direwolf Straits: 'Game Of Thrones' Easter Egg Reveals Why Sansa Won't Survive Season 8
Phew, wipe your brow, because (most of) our favorite Game of Thrones characters have made it through another season of murder, madness, death, and destruction. But come on, let's be honest, a fair few names are surely going to be etched onto that "In Memoriam" plaque by the show's end.
