:zombie: US 'Zombie party' killings probed

Neighbours said the house was the frequent scene of parties
Police are investigating the fatal shooting of six young revellers at a house party in the US city of Seattle.
They were killed, and two others wounded, when a fellow guest went on a gun rampage before finally killing himself when confronted by police.

They were at a "zombie party", where guests wear make-up to make them look dead, in the city's Capitol Hill area.

Police are baffled as to what sparked the incident, which took place in the early morning as the party wound down.

"We have absolutely no idea what the motive is," Seattle police chief Gil Kerlikowske said. "These appear to be almost execution-style shootings. He expended a large number of rounds inside that house."

The victims were five males and two females, aged from their mid-teens to their 20s, police said.

"It was a zombie party. People had a lot of make-up on," Mr Kerlikowske said. "There was fake blood squirted, and people were made-up to look as if they were dead."

Weapons in truck

The gunman, in his 20s and believed to be a Seattle resident, is reported to have been invited to the house party after attending a "zombie rave" for about 1,000 people, also in Capitol Hill, earlier on Friday night.


As the house party was winding down at 0700 (1500 GMT) on Saturday morning, the killer reportedly left the house and went to his truck, parked nearby to collect a pistol grip shotgun and handgun and to don bandoliers of spare shotgun shells.

As he walked the half block back to the house he paused to spray paint the word "Now" in three spots - twice on the pavement and once on the steps of a neighbour's home, police said.

Once back inside the house he started shooting.

"People inside the house began running and screaming in terror," Mr Kerlikowske said. "A pistol-grip shotgun is a weapon not designed for hunting purposes but for hunting people."

Hiding in bathroom

Having killed two people on the ground floor, he then went upstairs looking for more victims, police said.

He tried to get into a bathroom where two girls were hiding. When the locked door impeded him he fired through the door, but the girls were left unharmed.


The killer spray painted the word 'Now' three times

The gunfire was heard by neighbours and a police officer just a block away, who rushed to the scene.

When the police officer, Steve Leonard, arrived he found one person staggering out of the house with a gunshot wound.

He confronted another man with a shotgun, who turned it on himself after being told several times to put it down, Mr Kerlikowske said.

About 20 party guests were taken to Seattle police headquarters for counselling and questioning, police sergeant Deanna Nollette said.

"This is basically one of the most serious and significant crimes we have had in this city. The number of young people who witnessed what happened is disturbing."

Police said they did not know whether drugs or alcohol were a factor, though Mr Kerlikowske said marijuana and alcohol were found in the house.

"Zombie chickens" hatch debate over older chickens' fate

http://www.mercurynews.com/mld/mercurynews/16156469.htm

[Johnny Thunder]

Yikes. That whole thing is just effed up -

[Sinister]

So...if one of these suckers peck you, do you turn into a Zombie Chicken? :D :zombie:

[Spider Rider]

I used to live one town down from "Chickeluma".

Sorry but I have to ask, "why did the zombie chicken cross the road?"

[CreepyCanmore]

Hi all. Here's an article from BBC about a zombie walk in Brisbane. I think every town should have one, so I'll start here. I'll likely be the only zombie, and everyone will just think I'm another tourist who can't hold down my spaghetti.....

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/6515477.stm

Read the last guys comment the bottom about desensitizing the public to zombies...funny stuff

[GothicCandle]

that is just awsome! lol.

[Front Yard Fright]

hahahahaha.
that guys comment is hilarious!
:D.

[trishaanne]

I've seen these Zombie walks all over lately. I'd love to have one here in New Jersey, or even one just within driving distance. I think it would be alot of fun. Hehehe....maybe after our party this year there will be a zombie walk....with all the guests walking back to my house cause they can't drive!

[BooGirl666]

O this is cool.... I want to do this as well.... I have never heard of a zombie walk hmmmm might have to check into this now

[Lilly]

Yeah I thought this was pretty cool as well...Don't think they have them here but maybe I could get a bunch of my buds together and we could do a zombie ride(motorcycles)..that would be funny, now if I can only get them to dress the part

[CreepyCanmore]

Hmmm....sounds like it could be a good excuse one day for a haunt forum meet up. Maybe a contest for the best zombie rampage or most disjointed zombie stomp. Sounds like fun.

[Revenant]

Fish swim in schools, birds fly in flocks, cattle travel in a herd. A group of crows is a murder, and a group of rhinocerii is a crash... what do you call a "herd" of zombies? I was in a thread that brought that up on another forum once... a lot of people voted for a "stench" of zombies, with "stagger" coming in at a tie. My vote was a "lurch". I felt that a stench was a good nickname for a single zombie (I think they used that in Land of the Dead), and maybe a "stagger" would be a very small cluster while a "lurch" is a large group, or vice versa.

So whatcha think? Complete this sentence:
"Holy sh--; there's a ...... of zombies headed down main street!" :zombie:

[Sickie Ickie]

bunch :p

[Lilly]

"Holy sh--; there's a Horde of zombies headed down main street!"

"Holy sh--; there's a Tribe of zombies headed down main street!"

[CreepyCanmore]

Holy sh--, there's a broohaha of zombies coming down main street!

Holy sh--, there's a cafuffle of zombies coming down main street!

And if you can count with any certainty that there is 144 zombies (plus or minus a limb or two):
Holy sh--, there's a gross of zombies coming down main street!

[scareme]

Holy sh--, there's a posse of zombies coming down the street!

Holy sh--, there's a bunch of zombies coming down the street!

[Lilly]

or how bout this
Holy sh--, there's a bunch of rotton sums of beeches coming down the street!

just thought that was funny

[Wraith]

Holy Sh--, there's a plethora of zombies coming down the street! Sorry....I had a Three Amigos moment! Lol!

[infoamtek]

"Holy shite; there's a hoodoo of zombies headed down Main street!"

[Zombie-F]

A gaggle of zombies? Mayhaps zombies travel in clusters. Hmmmm....

A drove of zombies was seen shambling down main street today.

[Dr Morbius]

Holy sh--! There's a scourge of zombies ambling down Main Street!!

How much brain equals one serving? And does the intellectual quality have an impact?

[Front Yard Fright]

Hahaha
I have this on my computer I think...
I thought it was pretty cool myself.

[Doomsday Cult Leader]

Everything I know, I learned from eating the brains of smart people.

[UmbrellaPrjct_T002-Tyrant]

But where is just regular flesh? D:

I think I would have been a lot more interested in math and statistics if my professors had used zombie attacks as a model:)

[Dark Angel 27]

wow....three days...we're so screwed! lol I don't think I'd ever understand all that mathimatical nonsense....couldn't understand the model anyway since i sucked in math to begin with.

I wonder if it was Woody Harrelson who punched him?:D

[randomr8]

Dude's obviously not up on his zombie survival guide.:D

[Haunted Bayou]

OMG..
I have never been called a zombie but one time I was standing in a line talking with my husband when the girl behind me got in my face and started yelling at me. I had no clue what she was screaming about. At least she didn't hit me.

Hot zombie babes, what more could a guy ask for. :D :zombie:

[debbie5]

Well, I hide my decaying flesh with a good coverup makeup that I apply each day after a good exfoliating (I let my pet pirahnas nibble my rot each morning). Cheers!

The models would look way better NOT in makeup.
This from a "zombie enthusiast".
And I thought I liked disturbing things...

[Moon Dog]

Wow, just, wow.

[morbid mike]

[Spooky1]

I'd have to say that's a bit extreme.

[sharpobject]

Sorry, I just don't understand that mindset.

[RoxyBlue]

Not something I would want for myself, but if he's become a nicer and happier person as a result, that sure beats lying in a ditch cursing at cars going by and hating the world.

[Fiend4Halloween]

...so it seems Japan is one up on us. They are offering up bags of zombie skin..aka beef jerky..to tempt your taste buds. Rotting blue bits of yummyness are just a bag away! :sick: Enjoy!

"We're glad that everyone is alive, despite being 'undead'"

Classic

[Johnny Thunder]

Nice!

[Spooky1]

To bad they didn't make it to the party. They would have had the best costumes after the crash.

[Johnny Thunder]

C’mon, what’s more fun than a flesh eating zombie queen to greet you in the subway?

[RoxyBlue]

If they'd posted that ad here, they would have gotten all kinds of compliments:)

[Spooky1]

I found a site with pics & video. I think it's cool. :)

http://newslite.tv/2010/07/14/scary-queen-mary-advert-banned.html

[skeletonowl]

I don't see why they have to take it down. There are plenty of spooky halloween time advertisments that aren't taken down. Is it because it isn't Halloween?

[Haunted Hot Sauce]

I found a site with pics & video. I think it's cool. :)

http://newslite.tv/2010/07/14/scary-queen-mary-advert-banned.html

C'mon video hackers!! Tell us how can we make a changing portrait out of THAT!?!

[Evil Andrew]

Nothing like a good local Zombie story from Longmont, CO........


http://www.timescall.com/news_story.asp?ID=22351

[scareme]

If he thought he was shooting at a Zombie, I wonder if he knew to shoot for the head. Sounds like his shots went just about everywhere.

[bourno]

"Investigators interviewed Duke several times after he was hospitalized and he told them his actions were caused by mental illness."

Yea, mentally ill people who carry guns. Hope those are permanently taken away from him.

Looks as if a voodoo priest nailed the editor - the spelling and grammar in that article are atrocious:googly:
