Many fans are disappointed with the former showrunner of the AMC's horror drama television series "Fear the Walking Dead" for not being truthful. The show's move to Houston, Texas for a crossover has been confirmed. Creator Dave Erickson first mentioned that the move to Texas was not true.

Erickson will no longer be part of season 4 of the series and Ian Goldberg and Andrew Chambliss will take his place. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the series is indeed going to Houston. The decision was finalized in order to follow season 3's finale, with the new bad guy Proctor John (Ray McKinnon) headed to "what's left of Houston."

Fans are excited for any confirmation or updates from the creators about a big comeback of a certain character from the original series, "The Walking Dead."

Many fans speculated that Abraham Ford portrayed by Michael Cudlitz will make a comeback in the spin-off series. The return of Abraham is possible given that the timeline of the "Fear the Walking Dead" series is not the same that of "The Walking Dead." If Abraham will come back, he will still be living in Houston with his family. Abraham was killed off in "The Walking Dead" during the final episode of season 7. Negan (Jeffrey Morgan) bashed Abraham's head with Lucille, a baseball bat with barbed wire.

Season 3 of "Fear the Walking Dead" ended with a dam explosion and the major characters scattered. Madison Clark (Kim Dickens) was the only one confirmed to be alive before the season ended.

There is still no detailed plot news for season 4, other than production will be moving to Houston. However, actress Jenne Elfman will be joining the cast as a regular with the coming season. The official premiere date of season 4 has yet to be announced.
