Atlanta Zombie Apocalypse

The Atlanta Zombie Apocalypse is an immersive Halloween attraction like nothing seen or experienced before. This isn’t a leisurely stroll through a haunted house. This will feel like you are in a Hollywood movie, running in and out of buildings, up and down stairs and covering a lot of ground as you flee from the undead who all want to eat your brains.

Your Daily Dose of Awareness

ZombieDeskCalendar

We can talk about scenarios, weapons, vehicles, and plan like there is no tomorrow.  But to be honest, there are times during the day when we get sidetracked.  We lose sight.  Planning takes a back seat to our regular routine.  Thankfully there is an answer. We were very fortunate to get our hands on the Zombie Survival Guide 2011 Day-to-Day Calendar from the kind, and survival-minded, folks over at Andrews McMeel .  What better way to keep zombie awareness fresh in your mind than a daily reminder?

Train Like You Fight, Fight Like You Train

ZombieTargets

If anything else, this site is about being aware and ready for the undead.  Much like the military, law enforcement, etc., you learn to train like you fight, and fight like you train.  Meaning, if you can practice shooting at zeds, why not practice with some realistic targets? Continue Reading »

Kids Playing Video Games

Since I have begun working for ZombiesAreComing.com I have had the opportunity to meet and speak with a large number of people in regards to zombies and survival thereof., online and offline. While there is a large number of people out there who have made serious preparation for surviving a zombie out break or other situations where society falls. There is also those who I have come to term, the “Armchair Survivors” who do not train, who never go to the range or the sparring room, those who think that videogames and movies will teach them everything they need to know.

Survival Rules from Hollywood

zac_crowd

Many of us have already seen Hollywood’s production of Zombieland and admired the rules portrayed.  It was refreshing to see a character in a zombie film actually have some very common sense guidelines that were followed on an almost religious basis.  However, it is still Hollywood and they are bound to screw stuff up.  So without giving away too much of the film for those who have not seen it, let’s focus on one of the rules mentioned in the film: “Survival Rule #22: Know Your Way Out”.

While many of us out there spend days trying to prepare the best we can to survive the zombie apocalypse there are some things that slip the mind.
