So far, the zombies from The Walking Dead have been given many names, but never the word “Zombie” itself. The most common term from the series universe for the undead is “biter”.
The new spin-off series Tales of the Walking Dead is currently running in the USA. In the anthology format, which tells a self-contained story in each new episode, a new name for The Walking Dead zombies revealed.
Check out a trailer for Season 11 of The Walking Dead here:

The Walking Dead zombies get a Latin-influenced new name
The 4th episode of the new The Walking Dead series revolves around Dr. Chauncey Everett (Anthony Edwards), who has been studying zombies for years. As Comic Book explains about the episode, this also introduces a new name for the living dead. dr Everett refers to them as “homo mortuus”.
The name is made up of the Latin terms “homo” (human) and “mortuus” (dead) together. The new name for the zombies from The Walking Dead is not really catchy. Since “Beißer” remains much easier in the head.
When is Tales of the Walking Dead coming to Germany?
The current The Walking Dead spin-off has been running in the USA since August 14, 2022. A German start date has not yet been set.
