"The Walking Dead" walkers are invading the beach in the upcoming seventh season. According to The Spoiling Dead Fans, Stalwart Films, a production company behind the hit AMC series, has gained permission from the Georgia Department of Natural Resources to film along the beach at Jekyll Island in Georgia.
The show is currently set in Alexandria, Virginia, and it's suggested that the beach will stand in as an Atlantic Ocean bordering beach or Virginia lake. The scene being filmed at Jekyll Island reportedly will feature two actors discovering "a human corpse half buried within a small tidal pool. Further down the beach another person is found washed ashore alive and is carried to a drier section of the beach. After being revived, the survivor slips away from the rescuers while they are distracted and is seen moving inland past the wrack line."
Another scene filmed at the beach involves an actor "walking through a section of a marsh at mid to low tide." There's no word on which cast member who will be featured in the said scenes.
"The Walking Dead" season 7 premieres Sunday, October 23 at 9 P.M. ET on AMC. The cast and executive producers have previously teased that the world is going to get whole lot bigger in the new installment.
