‘The Walking Dead’ season 5 promotion gets a Halloween twist again

There really is no better time of the year for “The Walking Dead” to premiere than Halloween, mostly becomes it continues to lead to some of the awesome promotional ideas like the one that we are talking about here.

For the third straight year now, it has been confirmed that Universal Orlando Resort and Universal Studios Hollywood are going to be including an attraction inspired by the show in their Halloween Horror Nights event. This year, it will be chase that was inspired in part by the journey of Rick and company from the prison to Terminus, and it should include that perfect combination of familiar locales and walkers to terrify the heck out of you. If you like being spooked on Halloween, this is probably right up your alley.

“The Walking Dead” executive producer / special effects guru issued a statement talking about the return of this project, and he explained his hope that this particular maze is one of the scariest ones to date:

“This has been an incredible collaboration and I am thrilled to be working once again with the creative teams at Universal Studios Orlando and Universal Hollywood to bring the world of The Walking Dead to our dedicated fans … I can’t wait for visitors to experience first-hand some of the iconic moments from Season 4 in what will be the biggest, most exciting and frightening Walking Dead maze to date.”

Obviously, the huge takeaway from this story is that this series continues to maintain its massive popularity all around the world; when you start getting attractions at theme parks, you know that things are in the right direction.
