If you died a little inside when a major character — Troy native and 2001 Troy High school graduate Steven Yeun — appeard to die at the end of Sunday night’s episode of AMC’s “The Walking Dead,” you weren’t alone.

Just take a look at what happened on Twitter after Yeun’s character, Glenn Rhee, fell into a bloodthirsty horde of the undead.

Of course, his apparent death could be always be undone on a show about the undead.

Maybe it was the entrails of Michael Traynor’s Nicholas, who shot himself in the head, that made you groan, throw up a little in your mouth and look away.

David Alpert , executive producer of the zombie thriller, isn’t saying for sure. In an interview with Variety, he hyped next week’s special 90-minute episode. As for whether there’s an after-life for Glenn, stay tuned.

“We wil find out what happened to Glenn,” Alpert said.

It’s not as simple as whether Glenn is dead or alive, but about the violence inflicted on him and his complex relationship with Nicholas, the producer said.

“I feel like, regardless of what happened to Glenn, he paid a tremendous price for having been human to Nicholas, and that, to me, from an emotional point-of-view — whether or not Glenn is alive or dead or something else — the Glenn that we knew, the one that believed in the better side of humanity, I think is dead,” Alpert said.
