New Teaser For “The Walking Dead” Hearkens Back to Season 1
A new teaser for the upcoming mid-season premiere of AMC’s “The Walking Dead” shows Sheriff Rick Grimes and several of the Alexandria residents being forced to walk through a horde of zombies. In order to do this, Grimes drew back upon his previous experience from season 1 and absolutely coats everyone in the entrails and viscera of the undead so that they can move freely through the crowd. However, as the trailer shows, things don’t always go to plan and this time it’s not rain that ruins the party.
Talking about the mid-season finale and the return of the show, creator Robert Kirkman explains, “We pick up right in that moment. Alexandria is overrun. Rick and the kids are all covered in guts trying to get through the crowd. Everyone is where we last saw them, and things get worse from there.”
Season 6 of “The Walking Dead” returns Sunday, February 14 at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT.

One of Clive Barker’s Final Convention Appearances Will Be at New Jersey’s Monster Mania in August
We told you earlier this month that horror legend Clive Barker is leaving the convention scene behind to focus entirely on his writing, with various upcoming projects in the works.
A series of final appearances from Barker will begin at Days of the Dead Chicago this month, and we’ve learned Barker will also be coming to Monster Mania in New Jersey.
Clive Barker will be signing at Monster Mania 59 in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, which runs from August 2 – August 4, 2024. Stay tuned for more info from the convention.
Barker’s official statement earlier this month explained, “… it’s time to focus entirely on writing. I’m not stopping public events because I’ve lost delight in meeting you all over the years. I’m as passionate as ever about sharing my imagination with readers and moviegoers around the world. In the very room where I’m writing these words, I have the manuscripts for a very large number of projects (Thirty-one of them), some very close to completion, others still telling themselves. There are some wild projects in this collection of works, whether close to finished or done. There are also stories that you all knew I would be finishing.”
“Abarat IV and V are amongst the books at my feet,” he continued. “So is the Third and final book of The Art and the sequel to The Thief of Always. There are also return visits to characters and mythologies you may have thought I would never return to.
“I hope I am still able to surprise you in the decades ahead.”
