The Zombie Apocalypse



Zombie Apocolypse refers to the "breaking down of society as a result of zombie infestation."  The infestation of zombies is worldwide, and spreads quickly because the victims of zombies become zombies themselves.
As a result of the Zombie genre becoming mainstream, many fans of the genre have made survival plans to "prepare for the hypothetical future zombie apocalypse."

Elements found in Zombie Apocalyptic Stories:
1. The initial contact with zombies is an extremely traumatic experience for the survivors.
2.Authorities are not fast enough in responding to the outbreak of the zombies, therefore the infestation spreads quickly, and the zombies can no longer be contained
