Walker Stalker Con welcomes 'The Walking Dead' fans to Atlanta

ATLANTA - Thousands of fans celebrated AMC's 'The Walking Dead' this weekend in Atlanta. The zombie-themed Walker Stalker Con took over the Georgia World Congress Center with fans looking to get a glimpse of their favorite TWD cast members. 

Chandler Riggs, Sonequa Martin-Green and Seth Gilliam headlined the Saturday panel sessions. The stars shared stories from the TWD set and took questions from a few lucky fans. 

The annual Walker Stalker Con allows fans to get up close and personal with TWD stars, for a price. Individual photo tickets for cast members start at $50 and can hit $200 for a group photo with the TWD stars. 

Fans also checked out a huge marketplace selling show props, shirts and fan art. Several interactive photo scenes allowed fans to get into the action with zombies, or 'walkers' as they are called on TWD. 

This weekend's event comes just days after The Walking Dead season eight premiere.
