"The Walking Dead: Battle for Survival", a mixed media ride featuring familiar settings and characters from TV show "The Walking Dead", has been announced.
Sally Corporation is designing the ride, announced at the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions convention in Orlando, reported Aceshowbiz.
According to Sally Corporation the ride will use a combination of live animatronics and effects with projections, all producing plenty of scares.
The company already previewed the ride by bringing an animatronic walker to the convention. Designer Rich Hill claimed "The Walking Dead" ride would be scarier than most dark rides, but the gore would be toned down a bit from the show.
The ride does not have a buyer yet, but Hill said they are currently in the midst of making a deal to find a home for the ride, which will likely land in a major theme park.
