Game of Thrones - House Frey
In King’s Landing, Queen Cersei Lannister talks about Lord Wyman Manderly allying with the Lannisters. In the books, Lord Walder isn't named the new Lord of Riverrun after the Red Wedding. Instead, Riverrun is granted to Emmon Frey, Walder's second son; the Lannisters' grant of Riverrun to the Freys has been nominal, till Jaime persuaded Edmure Tully to surrender. Walder Frey is notable for appearing - as a toddler - in The Mystery Knight, the third of George R.R. Martin's Dunk & Egg novellas set almost ninety years before the events of the main series. Walder Frey and Brynden Rivers are the only characters who appear in both the prequels and the main saga.

Game of Thrones: Season 4
Their bridge is a major and vital strategical location, necessary to cross the river, which allowed the Freys to grow very wealthy and important. The words of House Frey have never been mentioned so far in the novels. After Jaime Lannister takes back Riverrun from the Blackfish, he arrives at the Twins, where Lord Walder congratulates him on his victory and goes so far as to compare himself to Jaime, stating that they are both Kingslayers.

Walder Frey is shown to be an arrogant, cruel, domineering, sarcastic, lecherous, and tyrannical man who possesses no shame. He openly admits how little he thinks of the oaths he swears to other Houses due to his strategic position, which he uses to extort hefty tolls in exchange for his allegiance, and shows a willingness to switch sides if he thinks it will benefit him more. Walder may see to it that his numerous progeny, trueborn and baseborn alike, are provided for but shows them little to no regard (as shown when he couldn't even remember his granddaughter Merry's name) as he basically uses them to further assert his own position. In truth, his ire towards Robb after he broke his vow had nothing whatsoever to do with any slight to his daughters and granddaughters but rather to his House.
The Freys join Robb Stark and later proclaim him King in the North with the other Northern and Riverlands nobility. The heraldry of House Frey is somewhat different in the books than it is in the TV series. In the books, it is the two towers and bridge of the Twins colored blue, on a silver-grey background. The TV series made the towers stone grey, and over the same dark grey field as in the books, but now above a blue escutcheon which is drawn to resemble the waves of the Green Fork of the Trident River.
Uchronia founder designs own home as "love letter to French craft"
From the newly founded cadet branch, born in 300 AC, due to House Tully being attainted of all its lands, titles, and wealth for rebellion against the Iron Throne. Granted to Ser Emmon Frey by his brother-in-law, Hand of the King and Regent of the Seven Kingdoms, Lord Tywin Lannister, in the name of King Joffrey I Baratheon. The Tullys, however, are still alive and thus remain a threat to the new owners. As House Frey had killed Robb and his men while they were under Guest Right, this earned the Freys the enmity of the north and most of Westeros, including from their own allies.

The Lord of Riverrun also rejected Walder’s offer to marry Edmure Tully to one of his granddaughters. When Walder got Lord Tytos Lannister to agree to his second eldest son, Emmon Frey, marrying Genna Lannister, Tywin Lannister objected. Robb breaches the pact with the Freys by marrying Talisa, instead of one of Lord Frey's daughters.
Descendants of Walder Frey by Amarei Crakehall
The old man reveals that he’s “gathered every Frey who means a damn thing so I can tell you my plans for this great house now that winter has come,” and in a certain reading of those words, he’s not lying. Frey makes all of the gathered members of the family drink a glass of Arbor Gold, a highly valued white wine grown in the south of Westeros. Disguised as Walder, Arya assassinates the remaining male members of House Frey, avenging all the Stark forces slaughtered at the Red Wedding, by poisoning wine given to them. She gives a message to Walder's wife Kitty Frey that "Winter came for House Frey", before leaving the Twins.

However Brynden stubbornly refuses and Ryman doesn't hang Edmure, not wanting to lose a hostage. Roslin truly loves Edmure and she is pregnant by him but she prays on having a baby daughter, as she feared if she produces a male heir to House Tully, her family will kill Edmure. Men from their force frequently go missing, possibly hanged by the Brotherhood without Banners on Lady Stoneheart's orders. However, unlike in her previous life, Stonheart is ruthless and unforgiving, with a strong hunger for revenge.
House Frey is the northern-most house of the Riverlands, not far south of the loose border with the North, and has a history of enmity with House Reed, who control the marshes of the Neck to the north of the Twins. The current head of the house is unknown following the Assassinations at the Twins in revenge for the Red Wedding. After the defeat of House Lannister, Edmure Tully regained control of the Riverlands. House Frey[1] of the Twins is a noble house from the Riverlands and a vassal of House Tully.
The older noble Houses of the Riverlands look down on them as upstarts. He has no sense of shame, so he'd rather have a leaky roof in need of repair and worn down furniture, than spend any money on replacing them, regardless of the public appearance this to the other noble families. After the funeral of his grandfather, Robb Stark comes to conclusion that drastic action must be taken to force the Lannisters to surrender, by taking Casterly Rock. This plan is hindered by the murder of two Lannister children, Martyn and Willem, who were Robb's prisoners, by his bannerman Rickard Karstark - causing Robb to take Rickard's head as justice for defying his orders. Third child and only daughter of Tytos Lannister and Jeyne Marbrand. Married to Emmon Frey, with whom she has four sons (Cleos, Lyonel, Tion, and "Red" Walder).
They can assemble a lot more soldiers than their liege lords, House Tully of Riverrun. Under the ancient Lord Walder Frey, House Frey has grown even more in both size and power, now having become the most powerful bannermen of the Tullys. Known vassal houses sworn to House Frey are House Charlton, House Erenford, and House Haigh. It is the wealthiest noble house of the Riverlands, and the second-most powerful after the Tullys of Riverrun. Their main seat is the Twins, also known as the Crossing, which are a pair of castles located on each bank of the northern Green Fork of the Trident, with the Water Tower in the middle of their bridge.
