“Bub” is the name given to a zombie who was “domesticated” by Dr. Logan in George A. Romero’s Day of the Dead and is one of the protagonists of the film. He’s notable for being the only zombie in the Living Dead trilogy to properly fire a gun and becomes fully sentient. Gun and chains optional.

In Warm Bodies, R (Nicholas Hoult) is not your typical zombie. He is able to communicate, granted with grunts and moans. He gets enjoyment from eating food, granted by devouring human brains and experiencing their memories. And he falls in love with the non-zombie Julie Grigio, granted after consuming her boyfriend.

In Zombieland, Tallahassee (Woody Harrelson) is a survivor of the “mad person disease” epidemic who is especially violent in killing zombies. His real name is unknown, as survivors refer to each other only by their hometowns in this apocalyptic world.

In Dead Rising 4, Frank West is a photographer looking for the next big scoop when he stumbles upon some strange events in the small town of Willamette, Colorado. After fending off a major zombie attack, he must return during the Christmas season to fight off another outbreak.

In The Walking Dead, Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) is the deputy sheriff of King’s County, Georgia when it becomes overrun with zombies. He leads a small group of survivors, but becomes a bit unhinged when his wife Lori is killed.

Herbert West (Jeffrey Combs), also known as the Re-Animator, is the villain of the cult classic 80s comedy-horror film “Re-Animator”, its sequels, and its 2011 stage musical, all based on HP Lovecraft’s short story “Herbert West–Reanimator”. He also was the subject in the Dynamite Comics series “Re-Animator” and even crossed paths with Ash Williams from Evil Dead in the Army of Darkness Vs Re-Animator comic series (An fun idea for a pair cosplay). Chemistry tubes/head optional. Bring “life” to any party in this gross out costume!
