The Christmas Zombie

Since "God's Wrath," which is what some called the apocalypse that brought the dead back to life to feast on the living, he has been living in a fortified cabin in the North Woods of Wisconsin. He has cleared his area of walkers ruthlessly. He was once a person who helped others, until he became a killer by necessity.

But now his routine has slipped and he finds himself unprepared when a group of walkers crosses his path. Is it destiny? Or is it a test of his humanity?

How will this 23rd day of December end for one survivor desperately seeking to remain human?

Contains graphic violence.
