The Walking Dead costume designer Eulyn Womble is shedding light on how the zombies are continuing to become more decayed and putrefied as the series progresses.
You may not’ve noticed, but as we continue to watch the survivors find peace in the world, so too are the zombies falling more and more apart:
“If you look closely, you’ll actually see pus [on their clothes],” says Womble, “We actually paint it on. We’ve got the clothes more tattered, but they’re rotting from the inside. And I’ve said this before, I really do want the audience to smell them when you see them on camera. We try to make them as gross as possible.”
Collectively, she went on to say that they’re “trying to turn [the zombies] into a herd, with one mind.”
The Walking Dead season 3 kicks off October 14 at 9 p.m. ET/PT. Watch a trailer for the upcoming episodes.
