So what causes ice walls appear out of nowhere in glaciers?

Its kind of odd to go there. You see nothing but snow, but then suddenly ice walls surrounding you!

To be blunt, what causes the ice walls to appear is the glacier itself.

Well, I can guess that since it happens nowhere else, but why?

I see what you did...

Nevermind  ;D

Get out of that glacier, do not sleep there unless you want an out of body experience. The climate freezes and water visible and available or produced on the spot.

You'll want to try a frozen ocean for the best chances, also, don't sleep for too long to reduce the chance of a cold dip in the morning :)
