The Walking Dead: Why is blood on Alexandria’s Wall?
By Adam Carlson
At the end of episode 5 of The Walking Dead’s sixth season, there was blood on the wall of Alexandria. Where is it coming from and what does it mean?
At the end of Sunday’s episode of The Walking Dead, there was something odd that has quite a few people talking about.
Deanna approached the gate of Alexandria, where she could see the shadows of walkers through the chain fence and tarp, and rattled the door. This caused the walkers to get all riled up on the other side. As she left, the camera focused on the inside of the wall, where there was blood dripping down.
Why is blood on the inside of the wall? Who is it from? And what does it mean for the future of Alexandria?
Let’s break down some of the top theories as to where the blood is from:
It’s Spencer’s blood dripping down from the tower. While it’s definitely possible, it’s unlikely. Spencer didn’t seem to be bleeding when on the tower, which means that he’d either have to cut himself up there or he was injured from a silent rifle shot or something. Either way, a major wound would be much more blood than that and a minor one wouldn’t be as much.

A character was eaten alive at the gates.
I don’t understand how the blood would get to the inside if a character was eaten alive outside. I also don’t get how someone being eaten would be quiet enough not to draw attention to themselves. Even if Glenn, Enid or another character made it back to Alexandria, they’re smart enough not to try to push through the walkers just to have themselves surrounded and quietly devoured.
