Now that October has arrived, we can start the final countdown to Season 5 of The Walking Dead, with AMC kicking off the month in style by debuting three brief teaser trailers.

While we don't see a great deal of footage here, the familiar maxim Hunt or Be Hunted from one of last month's trailers is prominently featured, along with Rick (Andrew Lincoln), Michonne (Danai Gurira), Maggie (Lauren Cohan and Glen (Steven Yeun).

As you may recall, Season 4 of The Walking Dead ended with Rick and the group outgunned, outnumbered, and trapped in a train car awaiting a grim fate. Season 5 picks up shortly thereafter. What follows is a story that weaves the true motives of the people of Terminus with the hopeful prospect of a cure in Washington, D.C., the fate of the group's lost comrades, as well as new locales, new conflicts, and new obstacles in keeping the group together and staying alive. Stories will break apart and intersect. The characters will find love and hate. Peace and conflict. Contentment and terror. And, in the quest to find a permanent, safe place to call home, one question will haunt them... After all they've seen, all they've done, all they've sacrificed, lost, and held on to no matter what the cost... Who do they become?

Check out these brief trailers to get ready for the Season 5 premiere, "No Sanctuary", airing Sunday, October 12 at 9 PM ET only on AMC.
