That Man With Antlers in House of the Dragon Season 3 Explained (& How It Connects To a Daemon Theory)

Theory Briefing

  • A brief daylight sighting of an antlered, hooved figure near Harrenhal in Season 3 confirms the Green Men as genuinely supernatural, not costumed humans.
  • Daemon's body was never recovered after his dragon duel over the Gods Eye lake, and theorists speculate the Green Men pulled him from the water.
  • Some fans go further, theorizing Daemon eventually becomes the Three-Eyed Raven — motivated by White Walker visions he experienced at Harrenhal.
