Screamers (walkers)

"Them damn screamers, nearly blew my eardrums."

- Lukas to Jesus about screamers

Screamers are a freak-type walker encountered in The Walking Dead: Decay. Rarely engaging in direct combat, Screamers instead are a hazard due to their ability to summon large numbers of other walkers with their incapacitatingly-loud scream. Generally only a threat when encountered amid other walkers, Screamers are nevertheless a priority target in combat. A Screamer is bald, pale, always topless and missing its arms, which give it a unique and easily-identifiable silhouette.

Location
Screamers are often found at the site of a infestation. Typically, an infested building will contain one or two Screamers.

Although in far lower frequency than any other walker, freak or otherwise, Screamers can be found wandering in the streets or in buildings.

Killing Screamers
Combat with a Screamer is relatively straightforward and does not require any significant modification of stategy in so far as dealing with the Screamer goes. However, despite their relative weakness, a Screamer should be considered a primary target as it will continue to draw in walkers and disrupt survivors' fighting ability while it is active.
