From the warped minds of the team behind The Battlefield Challenge Mud Run (held in Canberra and Brisbane) arrives a zombie event unlike anything witnessed before.
Operation S**t Your Pants is the perfect Halloween Party headed to SE QLD that includes a zombie walk (with a twist) by day and a zombie movie camp-out by night.
Organised by Operation Blackhawk (the team who operate Battlefield Challenge Mud Run), one of the brains behind Operation S**t Your Pants is Operation Blackhawk's National Corporate Manager Hannah Penberthy.
“The zombie walk itself isn't your usual zombie walk where zombies chase you; [rather] this is a walk at your own pace, interactive zombie walk, and as you walk around the course there will be horror stations,” Hannah says.
“They're designed to push all your senses out of your comfort zone, whether it's something that you see, something that you hear or something that you smell.”
The event will take place on the Halloween weekend (28-29 October) at Peak's Crossing in SE Queensland. Both days will feature the zombie walk course, while the Saturday evening will be dedicated to special zombie movie marathon.
Hannah says the event idea came about at one of their Battlefield Challenge Mud Runs. “Our Canberra event was in a pine plantation and it was a really overcast day and one of our team was down in the woods and got a bit spooked by it and as a side comment said we should do a zombie event in here,” Hannah says.
“When the team sat down and talked about it and put it out there it was something that people were really keen on.”
Hannah says the event has been designed to get your heart-rate pumping with enough scares to have you jumping out of your skin as she promises “it's well worth the thrill”.
The event village will be filled with plenty of other activities to keep you busy including SFX make-up artist, zombie tarot readings and zombie-themed games. There'll also be a DJ, food vendors and a coffee van.
