“Honestly, my biggest fear about becoming a zombie is all the walking”

“Honestly, my biggest fear about becoming a zombie is all the walking” is a jocular saying that has been printed on many images. The saying is a reference to zombie stories such as the horror television series The Walking Dead.

“Honestly, my biggest fear about becoming a zombie is all the walking” was posted on Twitter by Gia on February 4, 2017.

The Walking Dead (TV series)
The Walking Dead is an American post-apocalyptic horror television series for AMC based on the comic book series by Robert Kirkman, Tony Moore, and Charlie Adlard. The series features a large ensemble cast as survivors of a zombie apocalypse, trying to stay alive under near-constant threat of attacks from the mindless zombies, colloquially known as “walkers”. However, with the fall of humanity, these survivors also face conflict from other living survivors who have formed groups and communities with their own sets of laws and morals, often leading to hostile conflict between the human communities.
