As if the solar eclipse wasn't enough excitement for one day. Taylor Swift is back. Well, sort of.
Swift fans across the globe went into a mild frenzy last week as the singer's various social media accounts went dark along with her official website. At the time it wasn't clear if her accounts had been hacked, or if the moves were done in anticipation of the singer releasing a new recording.
Now, it appears more likely to be the latter. Swift posted a brief video on Instagram of what appears to be a snake against a black backdrop. She also tweeted the same video. That's it. A snake with no additional context.
The reaction from fans, left to deduce the meaning of this mysterious post on their own, went pretty much as you might expect.
