Ssangkall Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 I read them so long ago, but in the show they are more creepy looking than any other house. Doesn't really fit all the good looking people, regardless of their evilness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dames do Moan Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 It's the hats in the show I think. That's what it is for me anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumy Stark Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 My friend the other day referred to The Freys as the "white trash" of Westeros. I think Walder Fray in the show is spot on from the books (maybe even less old/icky) but the others I don't remember. I think the show is trying really hard to paint them as this lesser house that has been looked down on but we aren't supposed to feel bad for them because Walder is the worst so we're supposed to look down on them too, I guess. They certainly do have a look that is really different from everyone else who belongs to a noble house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maid So Fair Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 http://gameofthrones.wikia.com/wiki/Costumes:_The_Seven_Kingdoms Apparently it's on purpose - they all get shabby clothing to show that Walder is a miserable bastard eho is not willing to spend money even on the very basic things like clothes for his family or upkeep of the family home.

They're totally the McPoyles of Westeros. I think the casting of the Freys was spot on. They all look vaguely like weasels, though I randomly noticed that they recast Lothar this season, who used to be played by Thick Kevin from Pirate Radio.

Nevets Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Jaime's chapters in A Feast for Crows describe their facial appearance as "stoat"-ish, and looking like weasels. I don't remember anything about clothes, but probably nothing special there either. But their facial appearance - definitely creepy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDK they obviously don't go out of their way to cast absurdly attractive people like your typical TV, but makeup and clothing make a lot of difference. l mean look at Gilly's makeover - night an day.

A Ghost of Someone Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 The show Frey's do look creepy and untrustworthy in Season 6. When first introduced in Seasonne 1 they looked OK except for lady Frey. She looked helpless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Broke Howard Hughes Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Aren't they described as rat looking? Or is that something else I'm confusing them with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BalerionTheCat Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 They are at least as bad in the books: "She’s prettier than I dared hope." Edmure raised a hand before she could speak. "I know there are more important things, spare me the sermon, septa. Even so ... did you see some of those other maids Frey trotted out? The one with the twitch? Was that the shaking sickness? And those twins had more craters and eruptions on their faces than Petyr Pimple. When I saw that lot, I knew Roslin would be bald and one-eyed, with Jinglebell’s wits and Black Walder’s temper. But she seems gentle as well as fair." But the Frey are not the only creepy family. Lysa Arryn and Sweet Robin for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, whats with those hats? Who would willingly wear those things? What purpose do they serve? Functionality? They look rediculous and really creepy.
