'The Walking Dead': Memorable characters who became walkers

To celebrate the Oct. 22 Season 8 premiere of The Walking Dead — the series’ 100th episode — Yahoo TV will be posting a new TWD-related story every day through the season opener.

The Walking Dead Season 8 premieres Oct. 22 at 9 p.m. on AMC.
