House of the Dragon fans have compared the shocking and bloody events of the most recent episode to the notorious Red Wedding episode in Game of Thrones.
The shocking act of violence at a wedding reminded many viewers of the fan-favourite season three Game of Thrones episode “The Rains of Castamere”, in which The Red Wedding took place.
The Red Wedding was a massacre arranged by Lord Walder Frey (David Bradley) as an act of revenge against Robb Stark (Richard Madden) for breaking the marriage pact between House Stark and House Frey.
Some have dubbed the recently released House of the Dragon episode the “Green Wedding” in a reference to Alicent’s bold choice of attire.
