Warning: There are spoilers ahead for "The Walking Dead."

Before Carl's imminent death on last week's mid-season premiere of "The Walking Dead," he wrote a stack of letters to his friends and loved ones. 

They're currently in Rick and Michonne's possession. And though we briefly saw one Sunday night, fans have no idea what the others say. It's not just viewers who don't know the contents of those letters.

"I don't really know what's going to happen or really what any of the letters say," Chandler Riggs told press recently. "I just kind of improvised and wrote down a bunch of random stuff on the letters on the day [I was filming]."

Katelyn Nacon, who plays Carl's love interest Enid, doesn't know what's inside her letter from Carl, but it sounds like she will receive it at some point.

"They gave me a piece of paper, it just said Enid on the back and it was a blank piece of paper. I was like, 'OK guys, thanks for the emotional help,'" Nacon told INSIDER.

"If you ever write something down on the show, they're very specific about how it looks and what it says, so that would make sense," Nacon added about how secretive the show is when it comes to details like that.

The star isn't surprised that Carl wrote a letter to Negan though since the two had an interesting relationship.

"I definitely didn't see it coming, but I feel like it doesn't surprise me that Carl would do that, especially with where his character was ending up, and the philosophy that he kind of discovered before his death," Nacon said. "It doesn't surprise me that he would write a note to Negan. As an audience member, yes, but if you actually understand Carl's character, it makes a lot of sense especially with where he was in his last minutes."
