WARNING: EPIC SPOILERS AHEAD

This is your last chance to turn back.

Seriously, I'm going to spoil the hell out of Season 5 like three lines down. 

Ready to proceed? Super. So then, as you know, Season 5 of Game of Thrones ended with the biggest cliffhanger in the show's history.  It's not just that they killed off Jon Snow. It's that they left a tiny sliver of hope that he maybe somehow possibly didn't die. So ever since then fans have been coming up with theories as to how he might not be gone just yet. 

Like, you saw Melisandre go back to Castle Black, right?

The fates of other characters were left somewhat up in the air, too. Theon and Sansa jumped off a castle, Daenerys was swarmed by a Dothraki horde, Stannis Baratheon was executed by Brienne of Tarth, and Cersei and Jaime's daughter was apparently poisoned by Oberon's widow. But you never actually saw Theon and Sansa land, or Daenarys get captured, or the blade cut off Stannis' head, or the dead body of Cersei and Jaime's daughter. So some of them probably lived, and some of them probably didn't. 

Now, with the premiere of Season 6 exactly two months away, HBO has dropped a couple of sweet new posters that will only confuse us more. They feature the faces of characters both living and dead as they would appear on the wall in Braavos' House of Black and White. 

Take a look:

The message here? Regardless of who has or has not died so far, everyone's gonna die eventually. 

Valar morghulis, everybody!
