Tonite! Have Yourself a Zombie Little Christmas

Looking for a scary spin on this typically festive season?  Head to Diesel Filling Station tonight for the Zombie Santa Walk.

Here are the gory details:

Holidays have you seeing red? Embrace the horror of the season during the Zombie Santa Walk, which will get started at Diesel Filling Station in the Highlands.

Come dressed as, yes, a Zombie Santa, elf, reindeer or one of St. Nick’s many other undead helpers. The evening will include music from DJ Shoe.

Need help with makeup? Show up early for help adding the best in gore to your costume.

As you already know, zombies have quite an appetite, so we’ll be collecting food for the Atlanta Community Food Band during the event. But instead of brains, please bring canned goods.

Show up with 10 or more cans and you’ll get a free shot. And there will be drink specials ($3 shots and $5 cocktails) for everyone in costume.

And if you want a deal on a new apartment in Atlanta that doesn’t put your bank account in the dead zone, make sure you check out DDA!

Ho, Ho . . . Speedo?

We might expect to see Santa constantly clad in red-and-white regalia (in fact, it’s probably the preferred state of affairs). But this Saturday, you can spot Santa-eque sprinting along clad in little more than a set of festive briefs.

For those of you who want to combine Yuletide celebration with the chance to dash about in holiday-themed swimwear, then you’ll appreciate the Atlanta Santa Speedo Run.

And if you’re not already signed up for the run, seeing St. Nick in his skivvies certainly makes a great spectator sport.

Get to the Hudson Grille in Midtown by 2 p.m. to catch all that dashing.

This Saturday, Things are Getting Hairy in Atlanta.

We mustache what you are doing this weekend.

Might we suggest the first-ever Battle of the Beards? This fuzzy showdown is taking place this Saturday at the Highland Ballroom Lounge and welcomes all contenders whether your facial hair is biblical or beatnik.

In addition to providing a competitive platform for Atlanta’s best whiskers, it will feature DJs, standup comedy, live music and a full bar.

Top Chef standout Kevin Gillespie will judge the battle. Expect the fur to be flying.Of course, if you want a smooth deal on a new apartment that won’t shave your budget, may we suggest DDA?

Need A Halloween Alternative? How About Dawgs, Gators and Good Times in Buckhead

We know this weekend is all about Halloween, so we’re not going to break down every crazy, costumed event in town. Needless to say, if you’re looking to get your fright on, you have tons of options throughout Atlanta.

So, what if spooky isn’t your scene?

Then you need a dose of good ol’ fashioned college football. Of course, this weekend is all about the UGA Bulldogs heading down to take on those swamp-dwellin’ Florida Gators.

If you’re not up for the road trip, we recommend the World’s Second Largest Cocktail Party, taking place at The Ivy, 3717 Roswell Road, Buckhead. Live music, plenty of refreshments and a 12-foot LED TV so you catch all the action.

It’s only 10 bucks, and sounds a lot better than being stuck in the cheap seats!

100,000 Square Feet of Zombie-Packed Insanity!

What’s the Atlanta Zombie Apocalypse?

Well, according to the undead in charge:

The Atlanta Zombie Apocalypse is an immersive Halloween attraction like nothing seen or experienced before. This isn’t a leisurely stroll through a haunted house.

 

This will feel like you are in a Hollywood movie, running in and out of buildings, up and down stairs and covering a lot of ground as you flee from the undead who all want to eat your brains.

And the freaks at Fangoria Mag say it’s . . .

“The biggest, most unique “total immersion” Halloween horror experience the city of Atlanta (or anywhere else for that matter) has ever seen.”

It’s happening every Thursday through Sunday in October at 4215 Thurman Rd.
Conley. If you’re looking for true terror, you can’t do much better.

Get the hair-raising specifics here.
