Warning: long post ahead!
While in the park last week, I decided to go through TWDA a few times to find some Easter eggs scattered throughout the walkthrough. This post will essentially be a compilation of what I could find, along with a few photos here and there. Before reading, please note that possible spoilers to the walkthrough as well as the show could follow, so read at your own risk.
Firstly, I spent a fair amount of time looking around the queue for the walkthrough. There are a
ton of easter eggs to be found here.
Upon entering the indoor portion of the TWDA queue, you'll find a large plaque on the wall listing donors for the Harrison Memorial Hospital. Under the "Founders" list, you'll notice some familiar names, such as Larry Kurzweil (President and Chief Operating Officer of USH), Greg Nicotero (special effects makeup supervisor, director, and co-executive producer for TWD), Tim Runco (Senior Vice President of Entertainment at USH), John Murdy (Creative Director for USH/HHN), and Chris Williams (Art Director for USH/HHN):
The "Waiting Room" section of the indoor queue features several framed photos, all of which are stills from the television show. Two of the more recognizable photos include that of Amy and Andrea on a boat in Season 1, as well as Hershel's house in Season 2:
As you progress through the indoor queue, you'll see several cork boards scattered along the walls. Hanging from these cork boards are numerous flyers, advertisements, and other paper props that refer to characters and locations from the show.
A reference to Father Gabriel Strokes (though it happens to be misspelled):
A reference to Dr. Steve Edwards and Grady Memorial Hospital from Season 5:
A reference to the town of Woodbury featured in Season 3:
A reference to Father Gabriel and St. Sarah's Church from Season 5, as well as art director Chris Williams:
A reference to Del Arno Foods featured in Season 5:
A reference to Sheriff Lambert Kendal from Season 1:
Now we'll move on to the attraction itself. The easter eggs within the walkthrough are much harder to spot given how dark it is, so you'll have to excuse the poor photos (or lack thereof).
First off, you can find the sheath to Michonne's katana on the ground beside the walker parts that spell "GO BACK" (the katana itself is stuck in a tree trunk nearby):
The prison scene is a goldmine for easter eggs. While I wasn't able to take photos of everything, such as Carl's hat, some Del Arno food cans, Hershel's crutches, Judith's carrier, and the white box reading "Lil' Ass Kicker," I'll post what I was able to nab pictures of.
The blurriness of this photo makes it hard to see, but this is Beth's "__ days without an accident" sign:
Near the exit of the prison, you can find Rick's sheriff badge sitting on a pile of junk on a table:
As you exit the prison, you'll be facing a dumpster with a walkie talkie on it. To the right of the dumpster is a protective riot gear shield used by the survivors reading "WGC", which stands for "West Georgia Correctional".
This next easter egg is a bit harder to find. As you leave the prison and enter the Del Arno Foods loading dock, look to your left behind the scare actor holding the gun. There will be a wooden crate behind him, on top of which is Daryl's crossbow (sorry for the blurry picture):
...and that's everything I managed to find! If you were able to find any other easter eggs or references hidden within the attraction, make sure to post about it here!
