Trả lời phỏng vấn Collider, Neil Druckman cho biết từ đầu khi thực hiện series phim, ý tưởng các bào tử nấm bay lơ lửng trong không khí, khiến các nv phải đeo mask để tránh lây nhiễm như trong game đã bị lược bỏ, thay vào đó việc lây nhiễm diễn ra do các tua nấm
(từ miệng infected) để phù hợp với cách nấm mốc hoạt động trong thực tế.
Neil Druckman : "
Craig is right, there are certain additions that we made to the show, which I really liked. We wanted to avoid making a zombie show. We have the Clickers, which helps separate us, by grounding them in one way. But also, they’re such interesting, weird beings, and they use echolocation to find their way around. But with the more recently infected, we had a lot of conversation about what that vector could look like because there are certain things from the game that we took away. The game had spores in the air and people had to wear gas masks, and we decided, early on, that we didn’t wanna do that for the show. Eventually, those conversations led us to these tendrils. And then, just thinking about how there’s a passage that happens from one infected to another, and like fungus does, it could become a network that is interconnected. It became very scary to think that they’re all working against us in this unified way, which was a concept that I really liked, that got developed in the show."
