Stig Johansen Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 The skeletons also screamed etc (despite having no lungs). Wights don't scream or anything in rage. Mostly they are completely quiet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixgunbuddyguy Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 i think it depends on how the magic is interacting with the bodies. if it's simply moving the physical form, like a literal puppet, then having skeletons move makes just as much sense, but then why wouldn't they be able to move any other objects? If it's more of a possession type thing that allows the dead body to move again, then you would still need those muscles and tendons to make it all work. and there would be a point where the tissues are too deteriorated to make the joints work. but i believe they also have a lot of strength in the books? so i doubt that matches the ability of the muscles of whatever was dead. only GRRM truly knows if skeletons can move. either way i definitely thought it was an odd scene.
