On his Tumblr page, Race for the Iron Throne, he was asked about what he thought of the theory that the crypts are actually the worst place to be putting the non-fighters, as they're full of corpses which the Night King could reanimate for his army.
And Attewell's answer was surprisingly optimistic, all things considered.
He said: “I don’t think the Starks of ages past, so focused on the coming of winter, buried their dead with iron swords because they were stupid men.
"If anything, I think the Winterfell crypts are [George R.R. Martin]’s spin on the Dead Men of Dunharrow.”
The Dead Men of Dunharrow, from the Lord of the Rings, were a formerly disgraced army of the dead that defended the series' heroes when they needed it and redeemed themselves.
And while there's no Starks in the crypts who would require redemption (at least, as far as has been made in the TV series), Attewell's theory suggests that if the corpses in the crypts do come back to life, it would be to help the living and fight against the Night King and his army of the undead.
We definitely like the sound of this one - even if it sounds a little too optimistic and hopeful for Game of Thrones.
