Zombie survival, Chesterfield
Posted: Sun Feb 08, 2015 10:47 am
Our lass bought us both tickets to this as a Valentine's present, what a gal!
The event was really well run, professional but not too serious. The venue was awesome, a disused factory, and changed so much as we played through dusk to darkness.
The "military personnel" and the zombies were all excellent, with the latter stalking you through the huge building (one large central area and 2 tower blocks, one 2 storey and one 3) with such tenacity that it really felt like there were 5 times their actual numbers.
You start off with a run from the cars through the zombie infested car park into the compound. You're divided up into teams then given a safety briefing, followed by your "supplies" - a rucksack with 2 head torches and a radio - and then you grab your shotguns and are briefed on their use. Next up is your mission brief and then you're off into the infested warehouse.
The rest is just good fun, interspersed with some girlie screaming, running, searching, screaming, zombie noises, shooting, screaming and running.
I'd happily recommend it to anyone after a good laugh. It's not taken too seriously, you can choose to get into it and have fun or not, though I'd challenge even the most stoic of you not to run when the super zombie comes at you.
If you get tickets direct from Facebook they're only £25 for the 2 hour sessions

Sounds cool!
