Zombie Descriptive Writing

Improved Essays
Honest Horror I am eager to witness the horrors within “America’s scariest” that the masses raved about. Not having a reservation, I am forced to sneak around the attentive guard. The charcoal black suit with legs intimidates all who enter. Luckily, the bouncer stares mindlessly at the black cellular device within his tight grasp as if he guarded that rather than the entrance. In his moment of blindness I manage to duck underneath the red rope stanchions into the exuberant crowd.
After breaking through, my mind was set on the horrors that lied ahead waiting to attack. I Waiting anxiously, I crave the thrill and fright like a boy waiting in line for his first roller coaster. The creepy crowd composed of pitch black leather jeans, dangling

I press my spine against the rough door and drag my weight down until my legs meet the cold, concrete floor. One, two, three, four, five fingernails gently claw my leg like a feather dusting against skin. My leg freezes into ice as my mind goes blank. One, two, three, four, five lights abruptly blind my eyes like the sun burning against corneas. My eyes adjust only to witness the greatest horror of them all.
Zombies. Dozens upon dozens of the undead stand in a tight room where the only way out is through them. The room is reminiscent of a slaughterhouse, however, here lie arms, legs, and even heads. The blood dripped body pieces, blood dripped zombies, and blood dripped everything caused me to gag at the repugnant sight. Blood, flesh, and sweat encompass my body as I struggle to break free. I could no longer bear another minute within the “second hell”. I manage to escape and find my way to the big bright red letters that said “exit”. I feel a great sense of relief as if I had just survived a near future apocalypse. In a way I did, however, the horrors I witnessed weren’t at all real. Still feeling exhilarated and fearful, I speed walk to my blue Corolla in the midnight darkness. On my way there, a man calls out for help as blood oozes from his arms and legs. It appears he had been badly beaten from a fight or even a mugging. Knowing there was nothing I could do, I simply drove

    The zombie, as a concept, is related to many different subjects in the world today. Lauro and Embry in “A Zombie Manifesto: The Nonhuman Condition in the Era of Advanced Capitalism” correlate the different parts of the zombie to what they represent. In their writing they state “The zombie is historically tied to, and has been read alongside, the expansion of global capitalism.” (96)…

    Prologue The enigmatic sky was as black as tar, rain fell heavily across the pessimistic city from swirling grey clouds. Blue flashes of lightning struck the tops of towering derelict skyscrapers. Hundreds and thousands of buildings jumbled together in a massive multitude of disarray. Deep in the crevices of the city, in a small dark alley stood two figures, watching each other in contemplative silence.…

    She walked down the cold, dark corridor as she felt the soft and quiet wind run her by causing her to experience an ice-cold chill that ran up her spine. It was merely past six in the afternoon, yet the eerie atmosphere made it appear as if she were standing in the middle of a cemetery at the darkest hour of the night. The hot, moisty air made her clothes and hair cling to her skin. Her hands began to shake and sweat trickled down her palms. She swore she heard someone’s voice whisper her name, but perhaps it was simply the wind.…

    From television to novels to haunted houses, these monsters have become an influence not only in the realms of fantasy but in reality. The intrigue for these monsters comes not from the scares they provide, but rather how they mirror the lives of people across the world. Through his essay, My Zombie, Myself, Chuck Klosterman is able to effectively utilize allusions, anecdotes, and figurative language while exploring how the image of the zombie is embedded into society in order to illustrate how the lives of people in reality is not that far from the lives of those in the midst of the…

    From the late 1960s, zombies became a criticism of what Naomi Klein terms as “disaster capitalism”. In Romero’s Dawn of the Dead, the zombies wandering around the shopping mall behave very habitually, replicating their behaviours from when they were human. In this sense, Romero wanted to show his audience that the zombie catastrophe inhabits various degrees of familiarity. Through portraying the everyday as something susceptible to invasion, Romero shows his viewers that zombies are not supernatural and thus terrify us because of their eerie similarity to…

    It was a pleasant day in the bucolic. The sun was shining and a cool breeze was coming from across the pond. I was standing in the grass next to it smiling as I watched the ducks play about in the water. Nobody was around except for the ducks or so I thought. I lived in a little bungalow next to the woods where the scenery was always fetching.…

    They’ve caught your scent and you take off running once again. Monsters like mummies, werewolves and ghosts have had cultures and peoples running scared for decades. More recently, one monster in particular has frightened individuals in ways the ‘classic’ monsters could only dream of. Zombies, the undead, terrify us because they are not fully dead, yet are not alive. Zombies are a shell of a body with no life or conscious thought.…

    Could you ever imagine waking up one day and everything was different? Not being able to be sprawled out in your perfectly good bed each morning, but waking up in various locations for protection. Having to carry some sort of weapon every time you go outside just in case you run into a pack of zombies looking for fresh flesh. This all seemed too much and it was only my first year at Missouri State. A zombie apocalypse was not something I expected from college, especially to be one of the few survivors’ left on campus.…
