Ramsay Bolton, formerly known as Ramsay Snow, is a fictional character in the A Song of Ice and Fire series of fantasy novels by American author George R. R. Martin, and its television adaptation Game of Thrones.

Introduced in 1998's A Clash of Kings, Ramsay is the eldest son of Roose Bolton, the lord of the Dreadfort, an ancient fortress in the North of the fictional kingdom of Westeros. He is subsequently mentioned in A Storm of Swords (2000) and A Feast for Crows (2005). He later appears in Martin's A Dance with Dragons (2011).

Ramsay is portrayed by Welsh actor Iwan Rheon in the HBO television adaptation.

Ramsay Snow is the bastard son of Lord Roose Bolton, known as the Bastard of Bolton or the Bastard of the Dreadfort but insists on his legitimized status as the scion of the Dreadfort. A depraved sadist, he is renowned for his savage cruelty: he openly rapes and kills peasant women for sport, tortures prisoners, and enthusiastically engages in the Bolton custom of flaying their enemies alive. Roose suspects that Ramsay murdered Roose's legitimate heir Domeric and expects that Ramsay will kill all of Roose's future children. He is described as ugly, with blotchy skin and dry, dark hair.

Ramsay Bolton is not a point of view character in the novels, so his actions are witnessed and interpreted through the eyes of other people, such as Theon Greyjoy/Reek. Ramsay is mostly a background character in the novels.
