The Hilltop is opening its doors to a full-on zombie invasion Oct. 25 from 5 to 9 p.m.
Activities Council of Bradley University (ACBU) will host its first The Walking Undead Zombie Laser Tag in Markin Recreation Center.
“This isn’t your traditional laser tag experience,” senior special events co-coordinator Christine Gale said. “ You will be up against zombies who will be tearing down your shack.”
Participating teams of four are assigned a specific shack in Markin to protect from the impending invasion, as well as avoiding the zombies themselves.
“Students will have limited ammo to fight the zombies,” Gale said. “So they will have to be strategic.”
However, according to fellow junior special events co-coordinator Sojourner White, teams can finish their shacks or search for extra ammo between waves of zombies.
Students who would like to participate in the laser tag event should report to Markin the day of the competition. Gale said students are not required to dress as zombie hunters, but are more than welcome to if they so wish.
If winning the title of zombie slayer does not sound appealing, ACBU will also have giveaways the day of the program.
“We will be doing a drawing for the ‘Walking Dead’ character cutouts,” Gale said. “Students who participate will be able to put their names and emails into the drawing, and winners will be drawn at 9 p.m.”
Students can email cgale@mail.bradley.edu if they have any questions about The Walking Undead Zombie Laser Tag.
