Around Halloween every year, Elgin Illinois has a small problem with the undead. Hordes of zombies, monsters and ghouls take over the downtown, corralling what few survivors remain into a few shops, stages, and dance floors. This year again, the zombies will rule downtown Elgin on Saturday the 25th for Nightmare on Chicago St. Unlike […]

While we may still be waiting for the real zombies to show their gruesome heads, there are plenty of opportunities to unleash foamed aggression upon the Zs at Zombie Prom, zombie walks, zombie marches, humans vs zombies and the like.

By now there are fewer than 60 days remaining for this mortal coil. This may very well be our last Halloween celebration ever that isn’t full of the walking dead. Beyond 2012, it’s all a muddy gray mess of zombies, apocalypses, survival and sadness. What better way to celebrate the end of the world than with a zombie […]

Detroit. It’s that loveable, stalwart city that’s a microcosm of Michigan, possible even the US. It’s also a perfect place for zombies to slowly take over. A ragtag bunch of misfits in my home state have an ambitious project to reanimate part of the forlorn city (although not necessarily rebuild it) into a hands on […]
Do you live in the states? Are you in hardcore training mode? Are you a simulation and survivalist junkie? Then get ready to strap on your running shoes, or Five Fingers, and pound the trail escaping from some (almost) real zombies. Run for your lives will get you trained.

It’s Halloween time, when the veil is thinnest betwixt the land of the living, the land of the dead, and especially the land for those who walk between the lands. Zombies.

It’s a part of the weltgeist — people dress up like zombies, shamble about and… dance? Well, they try to dance anyway.
