What to do if...

[SarahStalcup]

The first thing I'd do is fill the tub with water and get my survival backpack (my dad is super paranoid), which has emergency matches, water purification systems, and a whole bunch of other tools, like a machete. I'd find a crowbar, and break down all of the furniture in the house to make long weapons. Then I'd use the sofas and dump them down the stairs to block the door, and then further block it with chairs and tables.

I do NOT agree with a pump action shotgun. It's cone of ammo goes wide, making multiple body shots easy to achieve, but against the undead, it's all about head shots. Also, you have to remember that at all costs sounds should be limited or eliminated entirely if at all possible. A good sniper rifle with a bayonet attachment is probably one of the best firearms to have. Possibly a military version if you can.

Swords can be a god-send. They can cleave through thick muscles and bone easily, but I've found that a good, authentic katana or tanto are hard to find, unlike the cheap, easily breakable "battle-ready" replicas you see all the time.

Oh, and never forget, organize before they rise!
