1. Sansa adopted her direwolf, Lady, IRL.

Sophie Turner, who plays Sansa Stark, brought Lady home after King Joffrey had her direwolf unnecessarily killed in the series.
"Growing up I always wanted a dog, but my parents never wanted one," she told English newspaper Coventry Telegraph. "We kind of fell in love with my character’s direwolf, Lady, on set.”
She renamed the Northern Inuit dog Zunni.
