Not sure. It's been around since 2019, but posted privately, not from a publication. Looking at it up close, the image looks legit; however, I do not know how it was formed. Here is a reverse image search, it's been through a few PSBattles already.

edit: Here, shutter stock has it in high res with different angles. I wonder if the spikes were there already and the water froze to them?

Because the spikes go in all directions, I can't imagine this could have happened accidently or "naturally".

Nah, all the icicles are snapped off at the roof edge as well, someone "built" this for shits and giggles.. The snow around where the icicles stick out also shows that the icicles have been pushed in. Otherwise the snow would perfectly "seal" around the icicles.
