"The walking dead episode"







I got to thinking while i was watching the walking dead and decided to do a give away on my facebook page. I did a walking dead trivia question game and had a zombie cup cozy i made during the show as the give away. I loved the idea and decided i would do a trivia game every 2 episodes and next time i plan on doing a book mark and maybe a coin purse for the one after. I have a few ideas up my sleeve.
