HBO Releases Mysterious New ‘Game of Thrones’ Season 5 Teaser (Video)
(Spoiler alert. Winter is coming.)
HBO has released a new, albeit brief, trailer for “Game of Thrones” upcoming Season 5.
This trailer comes a few weeks after HBO released a similar teaser through a new website, threeeyedraven.com, a reference to the three-eyed raven that Bran Stark has sought since Season 1.

Fans were secretly alerted on Monday night via text message and Twitter. The message simply read, “The Raven brings the Sight,” with a link to a new teaser video.
In the latest promo, we see Sansa Stark, who at the end of Season 4 was under the “protection” of Petyr “Little Finger” Baelish. There is then a glimpse of Tyrion Lannister, who after killing his father in the finale, boarded a ship to the Free Cities along with Lord Varys. The trailer also shows an image from Season 2: the Red Keep’s throne room laid to waste and filled with snow, which Daenerys saw in a vision at the House of the Undying.
