Part 1: 1944

Mario Manzetti has just moved to Franklin Village, and he hates his new home, an old building that's across the street from a graveyard. However, Mario commits to being more positive for his mother's sake; life hasn't been easy for her since Mario's father left to fight in World War II.

Mario and his new friend, Ivy, go exploring the cemetery, and they're scared by Anthony, Mario's younger brother. In the graveyard, Mario experiences strange occurrences, such as mysterious voices and unknown forces pushing him. The kids end up back at Mario's house. Evidently, Mrs. Manzetti has left for work. The kids explore the building and find a trapdoor in the basement floor, which they open and climb inside. To their horror, the kids see a group of zombies. Suddenly, Mario hears his mother come home. He and his brother rush back upstairs as quickly as possible to warn her. She says that — while she had heard rumors about the undead — she didn't believe there were zombies. The trio rushes down to the trapdoor and reopen it. A haggard, noseless, and undead Ivy jumps out at them. Ivy swears that Mario will never escape her.

Part 2: Today

Kenny Manzetti doesn't like his new home in Franklin Village. It's across the street from a graveyard, which he hates. Kenny and his twin sister, Tricia, were forced to move in with their Grandpa Mo by their parents. Grandpa Mo, a frail old man who loves to tell zombie stories, is too sickly to live alone. As a new family moves into the house next door, Kenny and Tricia begin planning their Halloween party with the help of their friend, Alec Schwartzman. The kids discuss the possibility of a zombie party, but they're distracted when the movers next door remove three coffins from a van and bring them inside the house next door.

The kids tell Grandpa Mo, and he suggests that the new family is a group of zombies who are hiding inside the coffins. The kids go and knock on their neighbors' door, hoping to get a peak inside. However, the pale boy who greets them, Trevor, doesn't let them in. The kids return home. Eventually, they see a news report in which several teenagers report seeing zombies. Kenny decides that he should start a team dedicated to hunting zombies. He doesn't really expect to find any zombies, but he thinks it'd be a good way to get attention and meet new kids.

There are many different types of zombies portrayed in films and games. Although they are largely categorized as slow and fast zombies, let’s try to shed some light on the other types of Zombies:

Biological zombies

Parasites modify the host creature’s behavior. It’s believed that a zombie could be caused by a strange alien disease or a bacteria organism. In most cases, they are very aggressive. Every person fears the plague. Examples of biological zombies include those found in the escape room game. You must solve challenging puzzles together with eleven other people before a bloodthirsty zombie invades the room. The player must uncover the riddles to discover the keys to his or her freedom.

Supernatural zombies

These are zombies that are created in a supernatural way. It involves reanimating the dead who has been attacked by spirits.

Chemical zombies

Strange chemicals are discovered and are meant to bring back the dead to life. They are created by bad people to experiment with the effectiveness of the compound in question. In most cases, a crazed scientist is featured or greedy corporations who have the goal of controlling the masses. The idea is to stop them before they start harming other healthy humans. They are infected by the virus and usually infect any person who gets into contact with them. A person is usually killed then reanimated with a virus. Examples are like those found in escape games.

Technological zombies

This is the use of advanced technology to bring the dead back to life. It involves taking a worthless person and turning him or her into a useful zombie. Some machines are added to keep the dead going.

Constructed zombie

Remains of other creatures are used to create the zombie.

Magic zombie

Cultures have stories of otherworldly powers. The zombies come as a result of the powers possessed by witches, sorcerers, etc. The powers are used to reanimate the dead. However; the mystical forces are not in any way linked to religion. The zombies will follow the will of the creator.
