A Zombie Proof House

From The Walking Dead series on AMC to the popular casual game Plants vs. Zombies to the book Pride & Prejudice and Zombies (which is a great read by the way), the centuries old threat of Zombies is making a comeback. And one builder has prepared quite a home to protect those who feel that a zombie takeover may be an impending reality.

From The Walking Dead series on AMC to the popular casual game Plants vs. Zombies to the book Pride & Prejudice and Zombies (which is a great read by the way), the centuries old threat of Zombies is making a comeback. And one builder has prepared quite a home to protect those who feel that a zombie takeover may be an impending reality.

Designed by KWK Promes and located outside of Warsaw, Poland, this first zombie proof house isn’t the usual compound where the earth’s sole survivors usually wait out an attack and develop a serum to cure the zombie virus. The home is actually fantastic.

It’s beautifully designed, very livable and sits on a scenic piece of property. The zombie-proofing of it is in the fact that it has only one entrance, which is accessible via drawbridge. Yes, a drawbridge.

The walls are movable and the house has the ability to completely cover all windows with slabs of concrete making the home an impenetrable fortress.

Take a look at all the photos over at All That Is Interesting and I’m sure you’ll be surprised to see just how gorgeous this place is as well as being zombie proof.

I guess you can never make a home too secure.

    To whom it may concern-

    We are a steel company located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and in anticipation of the coming Zombie Apocalypse we have rebranded our company to be the world’s only supplier of Zombie Proof Buildings. Instead of making a normal commercial, we have decided to make a zombie horror film showcasing our buildings strength. Check out our page at http://www.ZombieProofBuildings.com and you can watch the YouTube video at: http://youtu.be/O02LCJK9mZ4
    Thanks for your time, and stay safe from the undead!!!!!

    Amazing, well I can’t afford a concrete safe haven or the steel buildings shown at rocket steel buildings. But luckily the people at http://www.stalkerstands.com have some affordable zombie home defense products. Pretty cool.
