Hasta La Gadget!

I get queasy pretty easily. In fact, I can hardly eat after watching a horror movie or after reading a particularly gory series of comics. (Cough, cough. The Walking Dead. Cough, cough. Thank God it’s not rendered in color.)

And while I love cookies just as much as the average person, I’d probably have a hard time swallowing these for obvious reasons.

Just look at the dirt and grime on those toes. And are those molds? Don’t even get me started on the burst corns and blood just oozing out from the end where the toes were severed from the giant cookie foot.

I don’t think I’d be able to have my cookie and eat it, too. And get a load of these bloody ear cookie pops as well.

These disgustingly awesome cookies were baked by Natasha of Nevie-Pie Cakes.

Zombies and zombettes, here’s a great way to decorate your guest bedroom if you’re looking for something nice and scary to greet your friends. This set of custom-made sheets is adorned with a zombie-attack theme to keep your houseguests on their toes – and the edge of their bed – all night.

The zombie sheet set was created by textile designer Melissa Christie, and it’s covered with the ever-grasping arms of the undead, as they reach for your guests’ braaaaaaains while they sleep. The best part of the design is the blood-spattered pillowcases – which let your friends know that the zombies got the last person who slept here.

The design is a combination of screen-printing, hand painting, and appliqued hands on the pillowcases, and the result is 100% awesome. Right now, Melissa isn’t taking any more orders for the sheets, but she might do another run in future. You’re best off keeping an eye out on her Etsy shop if you’d like a set for yourself. Otherwise, you could try and DIY a set if you’ve got the artistic chops – and plenty of blood-red paint lying around.

If you’re planning a trip to Universal Studios Hollywood in late September, and happen to be a fan of zombies, you will want to check out the awesome Halloween spook stuff that will be going on. Universal Studios Hollywood has announced its Halloween Horror Nights will start on Friday, September 21 and run through October 31. Among the attractions will be some featuring zombies from The Walking Dead.

If you’re a zombie fan, this will be much better than a normal haunted house. One of the attractions is called Terror Tram and will force people to face hordes of Walkers stalking the Universal Studios back lot. The back lot is a rural setting with a small town was devastated by a horrible plane wreck. This time around, Walkers will be moving around the city.

The scary fun will also include a maze filled with Walkers as well. The maze is called “The Walking Dead: Dead Inside” and will force visitors to stumble through Walkers as they try to find a way out of the maze. There will also be a maze called “Welcome to Silent Hill” based on the popular video game franchise.

There were a string of weird occurrences in the last couple of months involving some people going stark crazy because of the things that they managed to do. It’s too gruesome to describe in detail, but here’s one work that sums it all up: cannibalism. This freaked a lot of people out, especially because they all occurred within a few days or weeks with each other.

Some pranksters also chose to capitalize on these real-world happenings by spreading warnings about zombies and the upcoming apocalypse online. Now, you guys should know better: there’s no such thing as zombies or an apocalypse. If you believed the hoax, then you must have been watching (or reading) too much The Walking Dead.

Anyway, if you still feel like you’re in danger, then you might be one of the few who’s willing to unload $24,000 to purchase the Z.E.R.O. Zombie Apocalypse Kit. It’s got everything – and I do mean everything – you’ll ever need to fight off the undead and protect yourself while you’re out in the wild.

The price is insane, but if you consider everything that you’ll be getting, then maybe it’s a price that you can actually stomach. Highlights of the Z.E.R.O. kit include thermal and night vision scopes, guns, knives, tactical vests, multitools, practice targets and even tools for evaluating biological samples. It also comes with the awesome OPMOD tactical mug. The full list of items in the kit are listed here.

(But again, we’re telling you: there is no zombie apocalypse. Just saying.)

The Walking Dead is both one of my favorite graphic novels as well as television series. Sure, the TV series veers off course from the comics from time-to-time, but that’s to be expected. It’s still a pretty awesome show in my opinion. And to celebrate the TV series AND the birthday of one very lucky guy, we have this awesome Walking Dead inspired birthday cake.

It was created by theRPF forum member Maelina in celebration of her husband’s (Gorgot3000′s) birthday. The scene shows Rick Grimes, Daryl, and Andrea taking up arms against the zombie horde from atop Dale’s Winnebago (poor Dale!), while Glenn finds himself chopping up a zombies with an axe on the ground in the middle of the action.

Of course, Carl has been separated from dear old dad as usual, and has his own dangerous weapon in hand – though it seems as if he should point it at som zombies instead of the ground. Oh, Carl!

The cake is made completely from cake, sugar paste, fondant and food coloring, so it’s completely edible. But it looks so good that I’d eat it if it were made from brains. Check out more pics of this incredible bit of edible zombie goodness over on Flickr.
