Avid viewers ofHouse of the Dragonneed to be extra cautious scrolling through social media in the next couple of days. Unfortunately, several leaked clips from the season finale episode of the famed fantasy series have been making rounds online.
There will be dozens of spoilers everywhere, and even though it’s not an entire episode, fans are still warned about it. The epic ending will be officially released on HBO this coming Sunday.
Beware Of Spoilers ForHouse of the DragonSeason Finale
A TikTok account is said to have spread the leaked footages fromHouse of the Dragon, and they easily spread across various social media platforms, including Twitter/X and Facebook. As perVariety, the now-suspended account “posted 14 videos and roughly 30 minutes of footage” and they were viewed approximately 50,000 to 100,000 times.
This is not a new occurence for the franchise. The final episode of the first season was also leaked online, but it was due to a distribution partner either in Europe, the Middle East, or Africa.
Despite the account getting suspended and the original clips deleted, many copies were probably made while they were still available. It also doesn’t help that many spoilers are spreading across the web, so those who haven’t read the books may want to skip doom-scrolling for a few days.

Regardless, the creative team has made a great deal of changes in the show so it’s still not safe for fans who are deeply wary of spoilers. The franchise is a raging success, and somehow, when the leak happened in the first season, it did not affect the viewership ratings.
HowGame Of ThronesFought Spoilers For Its Season Finale
House of the Dragonmay have had its share of leaked spoilers, but it would never compare to the amount thatGame of Throneshad to battle. Some of the iconic moments from the show were ruined by snitches who posted clips online.
Emilia Clarke, who played Daenerys Targaryen, revealed viaThe Telegraphthat show-runners D.B. Weiss andDavid Benioffhad a bright yet rigorous idea to counter the spoilers.
They’ve written a number of different endings, so none of the cast know what the actual ending is. If there’s ever a leak of any kind, don’t believe it because it’s probably not true.
No one knows if this is the case withHouse of the Dragon– if there are multiple endings. The actress also added that they were on “a very strict social-media ban” so the cast wouldn’t accidentally spoil anything. She used to post behind-the-scenes clips of her on set, but not anymore after the rule was implemented.

It still remains a mystery who snitched on theHouse of the Dragonseason finale. As perForbes, the clips seemed to have been taken from a phone, although “there were no screeners of the finale given out to critics for this very reason” – to avoid leaks and spoilers.
