​It's been over four years since "Game of Thrones" fans who hadn't read the books got the shock of their lives.





In one swift, brutal surprise, Walder Frey killed both Catelyn and Robb Stark. When it happened, those who had read the books filmed the reactions of friends who hadn't and laughed. Twitter was full of people expressing their shock and trauma.





You'd think that kind of reaction couldn't happen again. But it did.

During the last seven days of 2017, HBO has been airing the entirety of "Game of Thrones" so far, at a rate of one season per day. With many fans off work this week, there was no better way to spend their vacation than a return journey through Westeros and the War of Five Kings. Only it seems some of them forgot what was coming.





When HBO got to the infamous Red Wedding episode, it caught many fans off-guard a second time.

it's the red wedding

Even after all this time, it still hurts. It's a testament to how good "Game of Thrones" storytelling is. Even when you've seen the entire series so far, even when you know what's coming, this scene still catches you by surprise and traumatizes you all over again.





Thanks to Twitter and HBO's decision to marathon the entire series, we now have definitive proof: "Game of Thrones" fans will never get over the Red Wedding.
