There are less than two weeks until the most anticipated episode of the entire series; The Walking Dead marketing blitz has begun. Cast members are making the rounds for interviews and appearances on talk shows but with so much mystery surrounding the upcoming Season 7 premiere, there is not much they can say about what's ahead.

On Thursday morning, Norman Reedus appeared on Live with Kelly. Rather than reveal who Negan killed, the Daryl Dixon actor revealed that his biggest fans can sometimes be more threatening than zombies.

If you've ever been to a comic convention at which Reedus is appearing, you know that the screams, buzz, and hype are real around him. Fans pay big bucks and wait in line for hours to hand over a special gift, take a selfie, get an autograph, or just say, "Hi."

"People give me body parts," Reedus says. He's not kidding. Multiple fans have actually sent him their breast implants. "I got them ages ago and they just keep coming."

It's not all unicorns and rainbows with the fans, though. Sometimes fangirls can get a little aggressive with the actor.

"I'm wearing a knee brace right now because a very strong woman lifted me off the ground and twisted me," Reedus explained. "I actually have a knee brace on."

It doesn't stop there.

"I got bitten in New Jersey," Reedus recalls. "There's a really nice lady. I went in to hug her and she kind of turned into a werewolf and she went 'AHH!' and chomped on me."

"She bit down on me and she was escorted out of the premises," he goes on. "I had teeth marks and they escorted her out of the building and she goes, 'What happened?' And she goes, 'I did?'"

"It was on the news," the actor jokes. "I get bitten. I get picked up."

As for the upcoming new hour of zombie apocalypse in less than a couple of weeks, Reedus is making some big promises. "It's one of the biggest seasons and episodes," he says. "I can't imagine it being bigger. You don't want to know. I feel like people are going to lose their minds. It's crazy."

The Walking Dead returns for its seventh season on October 23 at 9 p.m. ET on AMC. For complete coverage and insider info all season long, follow @BrandonDavisBD and @ComicBook on Twitter.
