150 people took part in a half-mile ‘mass shamble’ through the streets of Leicester, culminating in a mass ‘window press ‘n’ groan’ at the offices of the City Council.

It followed news last week that a “concerned citizen” had used a Freedom of Information request to ask how the authority would tackle a zombie attack.

The inquiry stated: “Having watched several films it is clear that preparation for such an event is poor and one that councils throughout the kingdom must prepare for.”

Leicester City Council conceded it had no specific emergency plans in place, but said the request had “made them laugh”.

Won’t be laughing come the Zombie Apocalypse.

This hoodie features the battle scars you earned in your fight with the zombie hordes. Clearly, you’ve had better days. There are bloody handprints near the pockets and slashes across the chest. There’s a deep slash across the back that reveals your exposed spine. There’s a bandage on your left wrist revealing bite marks. There’s a chunk of missing skull on the back of the hood, which is lined in brains. We’d say you ought to get that looked at, except there’s a pretty massive blood spatter on the front of the hood around the area where your mouth would be. Which implies that you ain’t one of us any more.

As part of his innovative attempt (brains, you see) to promo his new zombie apocalypse novel Rise Again, author, Ben Tripp is offering a downloadable sheet of zombie wounds on his site. Ben sez:

Print them on full-sheet sticker paper, then cut, peel, and stick. You can also find some zombie eyeglasses on the site for the instant undead look.
