Zombie School

2.8 Hours Later hosts “Zombie School”

2.8 Hours Later, the smash-hit, adrenaline filled, cross-city urban zombie chase game that will be hitting the streets of Ealing in October are holding their Zombie Schools on 4th and 5th October.

For anyone who’s felt that being a zombie would be far more fun than outrunning them, then Zombie School is for you. Meet people, eat people.

Rather than participate as a survivor in the game, zombies play an integral role making up the hordes of undead out to destroy the last living souls on earth.

At Zombie School all volunteers are taught how to act as convincing zombies. This unique school is led by Alex Noble who has been acting as a zombie in 2.8 Hours Later for five years, since the street game was launched.

Zombie School takes brains and by the end each volunteer will have learnt how to move, act and think like a convincing, realistic, flesh eating zombie. Alex says: “Being on the other side is so much fun, seeing the fear on people’s faces can be hilarious because at the end of the day we’re only in makeup; but it’s amazing how in to the game everyone gets.”

To volunteer as a zombie visit the 2.8 Hours Later website, click on the volunteering tab and fill in your details. A deposit is required when signing up, however this will be returned in full after the commitment is fulfilled.

In return for being a zombie those selected are gifted with a free ticket to one of the 2.8 Hours Later games taking place in the city they volunteer in.

Tickets for the game start from £38 per person. To find out more, to watch the trailer, or to book tickets, go to the website.
