Taylor Swift has posted a mysterious new video, less than a week after blacking our her official website and social media accounts.

The short video appears to show a snake – or maybe another animal's tail? – against a black setting, and is now her one and only post on all three of Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.

If it actually is a snake, it's almost definitely a reference to the meme in 2016. You know, the one where everyone called her a snake.

And naturally, many fans have interpreted this as an announcement of new music.

While others seem to think it's a different kind of cryptic message.
