Shit's about to get real on Game of Thrones, and that probably means the body count is about to rise.

We all know that the penultimate episode of every season is when the dragon dung hits the fan, and with only seven episodes in Season 7, the sixth installment promises to be a showstopper, as Jon and his allies venture North of the Wall to capture a White Walker and blow this whole conspiracy wide open.

It'll be Jon's first showdown with the Night King since Hardhome, and while he has a band of Westeros' brawniest brawlers with him, the teaser trailer for next Sunday's episode implies that they're a smidge outnumbered.

Winter is finally here, and we can't wait.

Game of Thrones airs Sundays at 9 p.m. on HBO.
