Adult ZOMBIE Party!

A couple years ago, I threw my husband a surprise zombie party.  I told him that I was just having him over for dinner on his birthday, but he didn't expect to have me open the door, covered in blood.  He still thought something was odd, and didn't get it until his HOARD of friends stumbled out of the hallway to EAT..I mean GREET him.  :)  This is a great one for a Halloween theme or just a zombie enthusiast birthday party!

We love the movie Fido, so I made a metal Fido Zombie Collar too, a matching set, actually - his and hers!  

Step 1: Invites

You can make it a straight up zombie party and invite everyone, as a zombie, or make it a surprise party and do what I did.  I had a signal, I flipped the light switch on and they all came down my long hallway to surprise him.  It will be memorable if you can fool your birthday person!  The best way to do that is to acknowledge that you're going to see him or her for their bday, but disguise it as something else.  They will have a hint as to why you're having a random meeting around their bday...but if you disguise it - they don't expect the plans to change.

My invites were basically just details and random things posted onto a quick-free web page that I made in an hour.  I sent the link out to everyone and they remembered the date.  Now, if I were rich...my original plan was to buy fake body parts and inscribe the invites into the skin and stain them with blood, so the invite stood out and looked creepy.  (Like, on a fake/rubber hand).  Then I would package it like a gift and mail it out to the attendees.  Of course, it's a dream to be able to plan parties with that big of a budget!  :)

Love the bloody hand print!

Cheaper invite idea than the awesome and inscribed body parts (that is such a fun idea), you could send gummy body part candies with your party details on a card. If you want to go a little further you can print cards with a zombie cartoon/picture on the front and cut a space for the gummy body part to fit in their mouth, hand, etc.

Anyhow, love the idea. :)
