The network has just dropped a teaser for the third entry in what has become a world of Walking Dead television shows. The series, which is being showrun by Scott M. Gimple and Walking Dead writer Matt Negrete, follows a group of young people in Walking Dead’s undead apocalypse who’ve managed to eke out a life of safety cut off from the horror around them—only to be faced with confronting that horror when they decide to venture out of their isolation.

There will be kids. There will be zombies. That’s...about all you really need to know, in the end. Oh, and some of them will likely die horribly.
