I've always said it is SO much more fun dishing out the scares. We wanted to hit Universal for the Alice Cooper houses, but that cost was beyond ridiculous......
You missed out, HHN this year was awesome.
You wouldnt want to be in any park..as they would all be full of zombies...chances of survival would be slim..as there are really no defensible places with food and water available..Tome Saywers Isl..the tree house..all have serious flaws...best bet...get out
Well, actually, those swamps around the property would probably do well to siphon off zombos. It also does well to isolate you from the rest of the world. Think about it. Long roads that are hard to navigate. Moats and canals are built into the area. If anything, any survivors are going to bypass the place for less tough cookies to crack. Just like now, you're more likely to die on the roads than you are at the park. If you're stuck, best bet is to make the best out of your pixie dust coated slice of hell.
Everyone here saw how fast Disney World got evacuated during 9/11, correct? That would mean that, really, you're going to see a lot less zombies at the parks than you would think. Really, what you want to worry about are the hotels. Those would be charnel houses when Big Z hits the gates. Avoid the Contemporary, stay away from the Dolphin. Value resorts would be the best places to raid because of the wide open spaces.
So, unless the infection starts in Orlando, congratulations! You're near some of the more safer places to hang out at during the Apocalypse as soon as you get away from the hotels. If you're lucky enough that security's going to let you into one of the parks (because, really, if it really comes down to it, staff are going to hang you out to die. Really, if the zombie apocalypse ever happened, you are most likely going to die in the first few days anyways, so...), more power to you! Where to, now?
Well, Epcot's been covered, and I can't deny the logic behind that. What do you do when everyone else has that idea? Well, it's a deadly idea to head to Animal Kingdom. Way too much foliage for zombos to hang out behind. Little to no vantage points to use as a way to take stock of your current situation. If you
really want to do this, Everest would be your best bet to hang out at. It's still a really bad idea, though.
Magic Kingdom, even if cleared, is also a bad idea. The hub idea means that your back is against the wall if Big Z takes up to the Partners statue. That is something you really do not want happening for you, especially when your only other option is to brave the fences that surround the park in order to go into the swamp... which is probably swarming with more than zombies.
Personally, while the park isn't my favorite, MGM (It's the end of the world, I can call it whatever I please. First thing I do once I have the place locked down is to spray-paint that on the entrance.) is the best place to go. Why? It's built like a giant compound. You have stretches of open land at the front, roads on either side... Get a good vantage point from one of the building rooftops near the front and back of the park, you're going to be alright. Wide open streets so that if worst comes to worst you can juke zombos. Square layout means that you've always got a place to go, and multiple ways to get there. You've got tons of gas you can siphon from the Indy ride that you can trade over to Epcot to get one of their segways. You've got working cars and bikes from Motor, Lights, Action that might be unwieldy and loud but are easily available for use. Fresh water from Echo Lake and the Fantasmic auditorium that you just need to steam and purify, Sunset Boulevard provides an amazing place to fall back to should It Hit The Fan...
All you need to focus on is getting weaponry. You've got the blanks from Indy in case you need to bluff anyone, but I'm not sure how else to solve this. Maybe check for something sturdy from the prop case in the Great Movie Ride? Maybe if they have something sharp in one of the display cases in that new Jack Sparrow walkthrough... Once again, it's the end of the world. Shakespeare in Love's historical relevance falls to the wayside compared to your own survival.
MGM is where it's at if you can't get into Epcot.
