Would you still walk down the aisle if it was filled with walkers?

For Steelers running back DeAngelo Williams, the answer to that question is a resounding yes. The NFL player and, more importantly, Walking Dead fan held a zombie-themed photoshoot modeled after his favorite show.

ESPN produced a video documenting the photoshoot, which reportedly took place the day after his actual wedding.

The running back and horror fan claims that he'd wanted to take Walking Dead engagement photos, but his schedule during the season didn't allow for it. Instead, the shoot was pushed to after the wedding itself.

(The hardest part, according to bride Risalyn Williams, was convincing the bridesmaids to take part.)

"Dude it is a dream come true, it is magical," said DeAngelo, who has played in the NFL for the last 10 years. "What makes it even more magical is not only did I become a walker, but I became a husband."

Watch your back, Daryl, this walker is a little faster than most.
