In a satirical combination of two end-of-the-world scenarios, a zombie plague is quickly followed by an alien invasion - in a time when humanity is already struggling with vampires. Landing dead center at a college campus swarming with zombies, the aliens soon realize that their abduction mission is going to be quite a bit more complicated than they'd imagined.
The presence of vampires only makes the situation worse. Will the human race prevail or be forced to relocate to an alien planet? Is there any way to reverse the zombie plague? Is the plague contagious to aliens and can an alien be turned into a vampire? What if a vampire alien became a zombie, then was bitten by a radioactive spider and then possessed by the ghost of a robot werewolf?
That last part doesn't happen in the story, but what if it did? Find out what becomes of humanity in this hodgepodge of dystopian absurdity.
Alien Invasion of the Zombie Apocalypse by Ford Forkum
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
"They appeared more like a bunch of teddy bears on a cheer-up mission to planet Lollipop where they would launch and attack of hugs."
Quotes like this one had me chuckling all the way through this creative short story. With the obsession people have of the paranormal these days it was a nice roundup of zombies, vampires, and aliens. I recommend it for a fun read!
