Well obviously there would need to be some magic for the dead Starks to rise.

My thought would be that when the Wall was built by Brandon and sealed with magic by the CotF, there was an additional fail-safe built in the spell that if The Wall was ever brought down, it would trigger the Starks to rise as a last line of defense.


I can see it but is there any evidence in the books to give support to this theory?

WALL QUESTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All discussions of the Wall dictate that it is warded against the Others but we are all missing something crucial.

The Night King took his Other bride to the Nightfort, ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WALL!!!

So if the Wall is traditionally warded against the Others how do they make it through?

Answer:

Only a Stark can bring the Others through the Wall. Brandon the Builder used his blood to bind the Wall with magic, meaning that only a Stark can bring that which is unwelcome across the Wall. It also explains why there must be a Stark at Winterfell, to keep the magic of the Wall strong. The Night King, as a Stark, was able to bring his Other Bride across.

This is also why I think that the Wall doesnt necessarily need to be brought down to let the Others have their way with the Seven Kingdoms. They have Benjen Stark to lead them across.
