Possible spoilers ahead. Read at your own risk!

The Internet is buzzing with the rumor of a principal cast member being killed off in Season 4 of The Walking Dead. Again, this is just a rumor. But it's a rumor with a notable source: Daryl.

Norman Reedus, who plays Daryl Dixon [the redneck with the crossbow that all of the girls like] recently posted a photo to Instagram of what looks like him out to dinner with former cast member Jon Bernthal [Shane Walsh] who was killed off in a previous season.

The Walking Dead has a tradition for every time a character gets killed off. They call them 'death dinners.' 

"It gives everyone a chance to get properly sauced and say, 'We're going to miss the hell out of you,'" Sarah Wayne Callies [Loria Grimes[revealed to Rolling Stone Magazine. "Since the show has gotten more heart, we now have to disguise it as a birthday party so the wait staff doesn't spill spoilers."

Could Reedus be hinting at a possible death in Season 4?

Based on a bunch of other photos on Reedus's Instagram, Hershel could be the next to go. Though the photos don't tell us too much about Season 4 spoilers, the show recently confirmed a new threat to the zombie infested world of The Walking Dead. What kind of threat that is, I don't know, but its not something you can just stab in the head.
