If there was a moment from this season that will stick out in the minds of GoT fans, it'll be of The Night's King raising his hands up triumphantly to make a plethora of wildlings rise up from the dead, as a shocked and rather scared Jon Snow departs on a ship, knowing Westeros is going to be in a for a hell of a battle once their icy enemies make it over the water.

Social media was abuzz after this episode. It was almost as if fans had become part of a collective mind - every Facebook status or tweet was a reaction to what they witnessed in the last 15 minutes of Hardhome. It was an incredible moment that really created a strong sense of dread and let people know that winter isn't coming anymore. It's already here.
