FancyDressShack.co.uk Discuss The Upcoming Event Zombie Evacuation Race And Its Effect On The Future Of Zombies

Online, October 1, 2012 (Newswire.com) - FancyDressShack.co.uk, an online retailer of fancy dress outfits and Halloween costumes and accessories, discussed their view of the new UK event Zombie Evacuation Race and the effect it will have on the popularity of zombies.

Zombie Evacuation Run is an event in which participants can either take the place of zombies hunting living runners, or living runners trying to get through the 5K course without losing all of their 'life flags'. The event is officially an obstacle course, featuring challenges taken out of zombie movies in order to bring even more fun into the event.

This event creates a situation that is talked about a lot around the world by many people, surviving in a zombie apocalypse. Everyone always says they would be able to survive the hordes of the undead, but until the challenge is presented right in front of someone they never know how they will react. Anybody that makes it through the course with at least one 'life flag' will earn a survivor dog tag, an item that is sure to become highly sought after.

The staff at FancyDressShack.co.uk has a very positive view of the event. Kelly Woods, customer Service Manager commented, "Zombies have been a villain in many television shows, movies, books and more throughout the year. Everyone finds the idea of living out the zombie apocalypse incredibly exciting, and loads of people want to be zombies for Halloween, which we can see from our increased sales in zombies as Halloween costumes."

The Zombie Evacuation Run is an event that is accessible to people of most fitnesses and ages, which is why the attendance is upwards from 1500 people so far, as reported by thenationalstudent.com.

FancyDressShack.co.uk predicts that this event will add to the popularity of zombies in the UK, and make them an even more popular choice as a Halloween costume for 2012. This combined with the number of zombie movies and television shows currently airing will ensure the zombie has the number one spot as Halloween monster this year.
