Fans of The Walking Dead have a gaping hole in their lives now that the series has aired its last season. This has put many in a state of nostalgia as they look back on a series that aired for 12 years. Throughout the series, AMC has released some fantastic behind-the-scenes photos; below, we will feature some of our favorites.

One behind-the-scenes photo theme that always sparks interest is the gooey and gross ones. Below we see executive producer, SPX master, and director Greg Nicotero as a walker with Melissa McBride, who plays Carol, and Norman Reedus as Daryl Dixon.

One of the greatest BTS shots of the series is Teo Rapp-Olsson as walker Sebastian striking a pose with the remains of a body he devoured.

This one is a look way back in season 3 when Hershel (Scott Wilson) had his leg chopped off after being bitten by a walker.

In season 4, viewers met Pete Dolgen (Enver Gjokaj), who was part of Martinez’s (Jose Pablo Cantillo) group. He was looked on as weak by the Governor, who would kill him and chain him to the bottom of a lake, à la Jason Vorhees. This was also a throwback to the Governor keeping heads in the fish tanks back at Woodbury. These BTS images are an excellent look at this scene.
