The Walking Dead Season 7 Spoiler Alert…
Fans of The Walking Dead have probably been reading news from spoiler websites – The Spoiling Dead Fans in particular – may have been given a strong impression that Abraham is the person who dies at the hands of Negan in the seventh season premiere. That website suggested that Michael Cudlitz, who plays Abraham, has not been spotted on set since they shot the season premiere.
However, last week, Michael Cudlitz may have inadvertently ruled himself out as the victim in an interview with Popsugar, where he specifically says that he will continue to live on.
“[Denise’s] death spurs on a whole bunch of other stuff, and then the audience knows that Abraham will continue for a while now. Now we get to see what a world with Negan and Abraham both in it will be like. That’s something we don’t see in the graphic novels.”
Given the credibility of The Spoiling Dead Fans’ spoilers, some may have thought that Cudlitz was trying to throw fans by lying in the interview. However, as The Huffington Post spotted, the latest teaser trailer seems to confirm that Abraham does, in fact, live.
Watch, and pay attention to the 22-second mark:
Everything you have belongs to Negan now. #TWD returns Sunday, October 23.

The person underneath the zombie looks a lot like Abraham.
It is possible of course, that he dies in the scene but it is very unlikely for someone to get killed off by a walker on The Walking Dead.
If that is Abraham, then it lends more credibility to theory that Maggie is the one who dies in the season premiere.
For example, Instagram posts have suggested that Lauren Cohan has been away from The Walking Dead set.
We will just have to wait and see what really happens.
