This Walking Dead apron, called Walking Dead Walker Torso Apron, features a gory torso. The [zombie apocalypse-themed TV series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wrangler-x-the-last-of-us) has gained massive popularity and even those who don't watch it are intrigued by the amount of [zombified products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crocs-x-squid-game) that have hit the market. This [grilling accessory](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nfl-x-hedley-bennett) is one of many, but will deem useful for scaring off your neighbors when they come pestering around to see what you're cooking.

The apron, which boasts a dark and eerie depiction of a torso that is suited with a blood soaked dress shirt and tie, will be available in September. However, it is expected to sell-out quickly, so if you want to prove your love for meat and the show with one product, you should pre-order them now.
