Join the Horde Contest

If you were in Athens last year, you most likely saw the ZF billboards around town.  Well, they will be back again this year - 12 billboards all over the Athens and surrounding areas.  And we want to feature a family on them... it could be YOUR FAMILY!

What do the contest winners receive?

  • Although we can't guarantee that your family photo will be chosen for the billboards, the winning photo may be posted on billboards and other marketing materials.
  • The family of the winning photo WILL RECEIVE up to 5 free tickets (one for each person in the photo up to 5) to visit ZF during the 2015 season.
  • In addition to the tickets, we will give you the chance to go behind the scenes.  You can either schedule a daylight "behind the scenes" tour with one of the owners or you can choose to do the "Behind the Masque" tour when you come to ZF.  You can ask questions and see how it all works together! If you choose the daylight tour, it will need to take place Mon-Fri during the weeks we are in operation.  We will contact you to schedule a time.

How do you enter the contest?

  • Submit a family photo of your family dressed to look like zombies (photo requirements and suggestions below)
  • Email the photo to rip@zombiefarms.com with the subject "Contest Photo"
  • You can email multiple photos (up to 4 per family)

Photo Suggestions

  • Use bright clothing to help your photo look colorful
  • Do different versions of your makeup and zombie looks - possibly 1-2 photos with less wounds/gore/ripped clothes and 1-2 photos with heavier woods/gore/ripped clothes.
  • For your pose, try to stand tightly together with 2 folks in front and the others behind them.
  • For your facial poses, we prefer dead and vacant looking instead of aggressive (but you are welcome to submit one of each if you are sending more than 1 photo)
  • We would like each photo to have 2-3 kids of middle and/or high school age in them.

FAQs

  • Does everyone in the photo have to be related? NO - you are welcome to "stage" a family photo with neighbors or friends.
