2. WATCH THE WALKING DEAD ON AMC
If you enjoy being spooked out than the AMC cable network's hit series The Walking Dead is a must watch show. The premise of the television series now in its fifth season is that an epidemic of apocalyptic proportions has swept the globe. Now the dead are walking the world with a hunger to feed on the dwindling number of survivors who manage to stay alive.
The television show is based on The Walking Dead comic book series published by Image Comics starting in 2003 and is a still ongoing monthly serial. In 2010 it received the Eisner Award for Best Ongoing Series. Eisner Awards are like Emmy Awards for comic books recognizing the best in the industry each year. The Walking Dead comic books are also a great read, especially during this time of year. They are printed in black & white which enhances the horrific nature of the stories.
