Man predicted how Game of Thrones ends ten months ago - it's all come true so far

This final season may have elicited mixed feelings - and even a rather mean-spirited petition - but there's going to be widespread sorrow when Game of Thrones ends later tonight.

From the moment Ned Stark's head parted ways with the rest of his body fans knew this was a show where anything could happen - and boy, did it ever.

Now, with one solitary episode to left to wrap up over a decade's worth of incest, dragons, main characters dropping like flies in a variety of horrible ways, grudges, betrayals and intrigue, the fan theories are flying.

Ah yes, the fan theories. Has any other show in the history of the world ever spawned so many? Most have turned out to be complete nonsense.

However, one social media user may have accurately predicted what's going to happen in the season finale.

On a recent episode of the podcast  A Storm of Spoilers , GoT experts Joanna Robinson, Dave Gonzales and Neil Miller read out a series of old messages from a Redditor from 10 months ago.

The person claimed they'd not watched the show, but had somehow obtained knowledge of the final episodes.

Of course, ten months ago, many would have disbelieved all the predictions / they would have got lost in all the other theories.

But, interestingly, each point has come true. Needless to say, the rest of this article contains spoilers .

So, what did the Reddit user claim was going to happen?

1. Missandei would be captured and then killed by The Mountain

2. By the final episode, only one dragon would be left and the whole White Walker storyline would have been tied up and dealt with already.

3. Jaime and Cersei Lannister would die in each other's arms in a fire. The Redditor even added that many fans might feel a little shortchanged by Cersei's end.

4. The Mountain would lift his helmet to reveal his true appearance and both he and the Hound would end up dying in the fire.

So far, this has been how the last few episodes have panned out.

There was one more point on the list...

LOOK AWAY NOW if you're desperate to not engage with any predictions.

According the information the Redditor had heard, Daenerys dies at the hands of Jon Snow, who stabs her.

What do you think?

It seems unlikely at this stage that both Daenerys and Jon will make it alive - never mid get a happily ever after - but this seems particularly heartbreaking.

That said, this is the show where anything could happen, so we'll have to wait and see.
