The Walking Dead doesn't return to our lives until October, but plenty of you—more than 10 million—are getting your zombie fix from Fear The Walking Dead. Still, you've told us you're more into the mothership show and we heard you, so here's some new The Walking Dead previews!

First up is a moody new trailer called "Shadows" You can see why, we're sure.

"Make it end now," a voiceover says. "You really think you can do that without getting blood on your hands?"

Two questions though: Why isn't Carol (Melissa McBride) holding a plate of cookies? And where are Eugene (Josh McDermitt), Rosita (Christian Serratos) and Tara (Alanna Masterson)?

Then in an actual new scene, Abraham (Michael Cudlitz) and Sasha (Sonequa Martin-Green) have hit the road to do something "as big as this." As what? Well you'll have to watch the premiere to find out.

Here's what else we know about The Walking Dead season six: Ethan Embry will appear, so get your Empire Records and Can't Hardly Wait references ready to tweet. Plus, Merritt Wever, the Emmy-winning star of Nurse Jackie, will play Dr. Denise Cloyd, a comic book character. Lennie James' Morgan is sticking around and from the looks of the Comic-Con trailer, he's going to be butting heads with his former pal Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln). Plus, zombies. Lots of zombies.

The Walking Dead returns on Sunday, Oct. 11 with a 90-minute premiere on AMC.
