'The Walking Dead' Season 9 Finale "The Storm": Daryl Learns Dead Don't Freeze [PREVIEW]

So now that the penultimate episode of long-running AMC series The Walking Dead's ninth season "The Calm Before" has wrapped… that feeling of dread that's been building in viewers since the introduction of Alpha (Samantha Morton) and the Whisperers was tragically proven out – with Daryl literally forced to confront a "big bad" the size of which they have never faced before.

After a season that at our kindest could beest be described as an emotional rollercoaster – and with a righteous amount of well-deserved credit to Angela Kang and her team for breathing new life into the series both in front of and behind the camera – we were delivered constant one-two punch combos to our hearts, minds and nervous systems… and it's all led up to the season finale "The Storm."

In the newest preview (first premiering on AMC's Talking Dead), our heroes are facing a situation we haven't seen to this extent before: snow. With their survival on the line, how long can they maintain their "peace accord" with the Whisperers – and are they ready to deal with the ramifications of breaking it?

Finally, here's a look at AMC's official promo for the episode:

The Walking Dead s09e16 "The Storm": In the aftermath of an overwhelming loss, the communities must brave a ferocious blizzard; as one group deals with an enemy from within, another is forced to make a life or death decision.

Last – but by no means least – we have some sneak preview images from "The Storm".. with Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) not looking as "prison-y" as he's had this season:

The second half of "The Walking Dead" Season 9 finds our groups of survivors, both old and new, continuing to deal with the impact of events that took place during the six years that have passed. Since the disappearance of Rick, many of these characters have become strangers to each other, and in some ways, strangers to themselves.

What they do know is that they are in undeniable danger. They will soon realize the world just beyond does not operate as they thought. The group's rules and ways of survival no longer guarantee their safety. A whole new threat has crossed their paths, and they soon discover it's unlike any threat they have encountered or endured before. The group will start to question what they think they see. What may appear to be normal in this post-apocalyptic world could actually be more disturbing and terrifying than when the apocalypse first broke out. All that is certain is the stakes are high and numerous.
