Scenes like that always make me think of that Iron Maiden record cover. lol!

“We have some very fine buildings here…but the people. The people are actually zombies. Do not come. They’re after me, actually. I had to sneak across several alleys filled with zombies to get this post card off to you. If you don’t hear back from me, know that I was devoured by zombies. Also, do NOT come to Seattle. They’ll get you like they’ll get me.”

We have found the grail! It is in the castle of aaaarrrrghhhh……
