As springtime comes, so do zombies!
Aimed to raise awareness for a zombie apocalyptic future, the Zombie Awareness Month was established by the Zombie Research Society and is commemorated every month of May since 2007. The symbol for the event is a gray ribbon to signify the solidarity and preparedness of the community, as well as to celebrate the booming industry of zombie-related entertainment.
Ways to Celebrate Zombie Month with the Fam
There are many ways to celebrate the month of the undead with your family, and here are some of them:
Watch Z-O-M-B-I-E-S
A musical about a zombie and a preppy human cheerleader falling in love? Disney got your back! They have a Z-O-M-B-I-E-S franchise which is a mix of fun colorful choreography and heartfelt messages about inclusivity. Also, the characters are not limited to zombies and humans because there are also werewolves, aliens, and the upcoming Z-O-M-B-I-E-S 4 which will have vampires, too!
Join A Zombie Fun Run
Why run on a normal 5k marathon when you can be chased by zombies? If that’s your bet, stay on the lookout for zombie fun run events where folks dressed as zombies will be running after you, prompting you to run faster. Most zombie fun runs even have additional competitions such as a costume contest where you’ll get more zombie freebies!
Eat Brains!
No we don’t mean human brains, we meant the famous “Tuslob-Buwa!” Nowadays, you can avail unlimited tuslob-buwa at affordable prices ranging from Php 99.00 per head to Php 300.00! Also, you can even buy a tuslob-buwa package and have your own brain dinner at home with your family and friends.
Craft A Zombie
DIY projects are the hit this summer! So, get those crafting papers and glues out, and craft your own zombie apocalypse! You can make zombie masks, brains, and zombie medical syringes. And if you have a birthday party coming up, you can have a zombie-themed birthday bash where you can hire face painters to zombify the party-goers.
Bake Zombie Goods
Zombie cookies, cakes, and brownies paired with cucumber juice will make a perfect merienda for your kids! You can also get creative by making zombie versions of normal foods or by simply buying edible green goods such as green wafers, bubblegum, and candy!
Kill Some Zombies!
If you’re up for an adrenaline rush with your kids, head to SM Seaside and enjoy a game of virtual reality where you’re stuck in jail with zombies rushing around. You can play in twos or threes and bust some undead heads as a team!
So, Sugboanons, get zombified and celebrate Zombie Awareness Month this May with us by sharing your zombie photos to our social media accounts!
