10 Game Of Thrones Moments That Didn't Live Up To Expectations

4. Craster's Children

White Walker Baby Game Of Thrones

In season 4, episode 4, fans got their first and only glimpse of a baby being taken by the White Walkers.

The baby was a child of Craster, a wildling that lived comfortably beyond the wall thanks to him sacrificing his children. Craster, or one of his daughter/wives, would leave the baby out in the woods ready to be taken by a White Walker as witnessed by Sam.

While the ritual remains a mystery in the books, the show decided to add an extra scene detailing the Night King's fortress for the first time. Show watchers were treated to viewing, first-hand, how the Night King may have created his legion of White Walkers.

But that is all we see, the scene and the children are never brought up again. All of the White Walkers seen throughout the show appear as old, withered humanoids.

Once the Night King is defeated, all of those he had under his control dissipate into nothing meaning any terrifying undead babies are likely gone too.
