Game of Thrones really wants you to believe that not only is Jon Snow dead, but everyone else is, too.
Earlier this month, HBO released a cryptic teaser that showed many of the show’s former characters, including Ned, Joffrey, and Catelyn, in the House of Black and White, before panning to Jon Snow, who’s almost certainly possibly not finished being alive, maybe. Then came the real gut punch: a wide shot revealing the faces of Tyrion, Daenerys, and other not-dead characters. What does it mean? Are they napping? Is Game of Thrones going to kill off everyone except Gendry and Hodor? We’ll have to wait until April 24, when season six premieres, to find out. But until then: new character posters!
We begin where the teaser left off, with a closer look at the Hall of Faces, where Jaqen H’ghar, the Faceless Men, and Arya can pick a new disguise in order to do their potentially murderous bidding. Here’s a familiar face.

That Jon Snow is such a trendsetter. Also, death looks really good on Joffrey. We’ll update with more posters as they’re made available.
