Fans of The Watch PowerWalking Deadhave been obsessing about the identity of Negan's victim for the past six months, and on Sunday, Oct. 23, we'll finally learn who got a face-to-face introduction to Lucille when the Season 7 premiere debuts on AMC.
In the meantime, Mashablehas learned exclusively, brave viewers can put themselves into the unenviable position that Rick and his group have found themselves in, thanks to a new partnership between AMC and Facebook. Daring souls can visit MeetLucille.com and, by connecting their Facebook account to the site, play a harrowing game of eeny meeny miny moe with Negan himself. (And, to ease the trauma, enter to win tickets to the premiere taping of Talking Dead.)

Facebook proved to be an ideal partner because it offered a more personal element for fans, Schupack explains. "It really allowed us to go beyond the sheer conversation that these fans were having around The Walking Deadand let the audience enter into this world and engage with it by pulling in their community to experience that final scene," she says. "The power of the show has always been 'what would I do, how would I feel,' so people are engaging with that show in that way in general, and this gives them a particular way to take it even further."

"All of these platforms are particularly exciting for us as marketers to think about how we can broaden and deepen the relationship between fans and the property," Schupack notes. "The opportunity to use these tools in new and exciting and entertaining ways to deepen fan engagement takes us beyond the conversation notion of social media and lets us bring people into the emotional experience."
The Walking DeadSeason 7 premieres Sunday, Oct. 23 at 9 p.m. ET on AMC, and the network is airing a two-hour primer on the journey of the show so far beginning at 9 p.m. on Oct. 16.
