Zombie Theme Park May Be Headed For Detroit

zombies

Can the undead breathe some life into the Detroit economy? Entrepreneur Mark Siwak is hoping to bring a zombie theme park called “Z World” to the motor city.

“Z World” would be a huge 200 acre zombie theme park. But don’t expect roller coasters and cotton candy. Siwak is hoping to make “Z World” into a sort of survival ride where people stay the night and try to fend off zombies. According to the Christian Post, if players are caught during the night they would turn into zombies and go chase their friends. Sooooo it’s like a big zombie themed game of tag?

Siwak, who is trying to raise $140,000 to create “Z World,” said that Detroit is almost already a post-apocalyptic town. Recently, Detroit decided to shut off more than half of the cities lights and the city’s population has dwindled in recent years.

Siwak said:

“There are formal proposals to essentially abandon some of Detroit’s neighborhoods. That’s not a solution. Collectively we must be more creative than that. Let’s start something fun and unique that will revitalize an area while creating some jobs for Detroiters.”

Is someone is going to make a zombie theme park Detroit seems like the place to do it. But so far Siwak doesn’t have too many supporters. His fundraising page at indigogo has only raised $4,231, more than $140,000 short of his goal.

    I think it should last a weekend or have the option to buy a weekend pass! man this would be a great senior trip or bachleor party… we would fly there from Texas! and it would open up local hotels and you can have themed stores and ghost tours haunted tours… themed food joints… how do you keep people coming back instead of just doing it one time? you will have to change things up at least bi annually… you could do a haunted theme(roller coasters etc) park next door to Z world too… the ideas are endless your peak season would be halloween naturally… you could do concert venue near by or even have a zombie paint ball area next to this for those who want to do more than just survive… man the possibilities are endless! I really hope this works and it helps detroit! They need it! you should pitch this to Landry's lol….

    you wouldnt i think the idea here is to just survive with the bare minimal… honestly if one broke out the odds of you having everything ready are rare you will have to get to home base to get your supplies etc… it would be to much of a liability ….

    I think its a good Idea but there are ways to make it better. I can already see many flaws in the proposed plans.

    "Z World: because why the fuck else would you come to Detroit?"

    this is an AWESOME IDEA! I sure as hell would love to go to a park like this and test out my zombie survival skills. This place would benefit for everyone… it better happen.

    So….lates say I'm sorta mad at my friend that day? Can I 'kill' him and take his food so I can survive that night?

    It's all fun and games until some lunatic actually kills one of the zombies.

    I think this is a great idea, it will create jobs for Detroit and bring money into Detroit. Plus the guy creating it does not have to spend a lot of money because Detroit has a lot of abandoned buildings that he can use for the zombie apocalypse setting.

    there has to be some way to put the zombies down, like maybe the survivor can tag the zombie, and then he is done for the night or whatever.
