Horror master Stephen King has apparently found a glaring plot hole in the zombie show "The Walking Dead" and has since set the internet abuzz when he questioned the AMC television series.

King took to Twitter recently and posted a big question regarding a detail for the selling point of "The Walking Dead," questioning what seems to be an overlooked plot inconsistency. Some fans could even argue that the writer was just nitpicking the finer details (or lack thereof) of the show when he asked, "After eight years, how come the zombies don't, like, biodegrade?"

This one sort of rings true for based on real-life laws of nature, though the show's might be different, but regardless, he is right to point out that as the time goes by, there should be fewer and fewer survivors running around in "The Walking Dead" universe, meaning lesser chow for the zombies or "walkers." This, in turn, should cause them to decay even further and eventually crumble since they seem to have no such regenerative capabilities based on their appearances in the show.

Being a horror master responsible for titles like "It," "The Mists," "The Shining" and "Pet Sematary," one can assume that King knows what he is talking about, especially when he points out a fundamental world-building "error." For all fans know, the zombie apocalypse portrayed in "The Walking Dead" should not be really able to sustain itself at the rate that the zombies are decaying.

Another issue that King appears to have had with the show's logical consistency was with the meat-grinder scene involving Jadis, who used an electricity-powered meat grinder to eviscerate a horde of walkers. King argues that the said device could require at least 440 volts that apparently came out of nowhere in that single episode, something that was not explained properly in the show.

Another detail that King noticed is a small one, but involved the sound of rustling leaves in a scene where the trees have no leaves, particularly the one in Carl Grimes' (Chandler Riggs) grave. It remains to be seen how the showrunners respond to King's queries.
