The show is set in America after it has been engulfed by a Zombie Apocalypse and almost everyone has turned into a zombie or a half-dead human who feeds onto other humans and is considered to be brainless but very dangerous. They are easily attracted to the noises of things like gunshots and loud thuds, and can even detect smells and get attracted towards the same.
The concept of becoming a “walker’ is that if a person gets bitten or scratched by the walker will soon catch the infection. They also become the walkers and there is only one way to save yourself from that to kill them. The show follows a police officer named Rick Grimes who was in a coma while the world was being taken by a stride by the zombies.
Post waking up he finds himself in a rut where he is living in survival mode throughout. He becomes the leader of a group of humans that are left safe from the deadly disease. They are not only attacked by the walkers but also by the other survivor groups who are ready to battle them for the resources and anything that is left. They travel throughout the show, building communities, laws and rules in order to safeguard themselves.
The show is a compilation of these communities as they battle for their lives, killing and being killed in the process. The show is a thrilling experience some communities join forces and some vow to become each other’s arch-enemies in this process.
