Hordes of blood thirsty zombies are set to invade Holyrood Park in Edinburgh on Saturday 3rd October when the “Zombie Survival run for your life “event comes to the city.
Hundreds of “Survivors” have already signed up to attempt to evade the zombies by following the “Escape Route” that has been designed by the event organisers. Survivors will encounter numerous obstacles designed to evade the zombie hordes, while the zombies will try to ambush the fleeing survivors.
Organisers Freebird Events use some state of the art sound and lighting effects around the course to create a spine chilling experience for the survivors and zombies taking part. Starting as the sun sets the darkness all adds to the highly charged atmosphere for those brave enough to take on the challenge.
Anyone can sign up as a survivor (either as an individual or even better still as part of a team of friends) and try to make it around the Escape Route alive, or they can sign up as a zombie and do the hunting and chasing. Everyone who makes it back alive to the finish hear Holyrood Palace can celebrate at the fantastic Zombie Survival After Party which will boast a fully licenced bar, hot and cold food and great music.
To take part, all participants must pre-register by first going to the event website at http://www.zombiesurvivalrun.co.uk where they will find more details about the Zombie Survival run and an online entry form.
