I watch a lot of horror. While Walking Dead is one of my favorite shows, I wouldn't say it's all that scary to begin with. Tense, dramatic, sure. The trailer for Outcast makes the show look like something that will legit scare the high unholy sh__ out of people though. Looking forward to it.

I like enjoy the Outcast comics and the first episode of Outcast the TV series was great. The atmosphere, look and performances were great.

I think Walking Dead and Outcast offer different things.

I find The Walking Dead tense and suspenseful rather than scary.
Outcast is creepy and unsettling.

Kirkman has stated that TWD is not a scary show on the fact that they went with the human drama instead. I guess he has to sell this new show somehow.

well that's a really low bar for scary. I enjoy walking dead, but I don't think it's even remotely scary.
