It's October. You know what that means. That's right, it's undead time.
I'm not referring to the mid-term political election cycle , but the armies of spook-ables rising from their graves, shambling towards the warmth of the living.
You may not think it's an issue, but if you've just constructed a graveyard in your front flowerbed, zombies are something to think about. You've got to get your defenses prepared. I'm prepared and I'm going to help you get prepared for the zombie apocalypse too, with a giveaway and a discount coupon, but more on that later with:
But first, the graveyard. To the delight of my AZ DIY Girl assistant, with as much fanfare as raising the Ark of the Covenant from the Well of the Souls, the Halloween box was lowered from the attic. After careful deliberation, we started with tombstones, definitely tombstones.
Because I have been successful in fighting waves of zombies with my arsenal of DIY weaponry, there's nothing remaining but their bones, littering the graveyard. At least they will be, as soon as they are removed from the bag-o-bones.
This is definitely not Santa's back of goodies,
Exact placement is the key. The bones are scattered exactly where they landed when I brained a marauding zombie with a 3/4" long handle conduit bender.
Wash your hands after playing with zombie bones young lady.
Finally, the last bit of ambiance is an orange lamp for the front porch. You can't have crisp LED daylight for an undead rampage can you? It's just uncivilized.

Of course, when you are deploying to do hand-to-hand combat with an army of the shambling dead, you need a place where you can quickly lay your hands on your weaponry. You may recall my Monkey Bars Tool Rack, tucked into the back corner of the garage.
Ohhhhhhhhhh yeahhhhh.....
AZ DIY Guy's Zombie Survival Rack, loaded for action
Zombie slay-idge at its best, right? I've got chopping, slashing, crushing and hacking implements ready for rapid deployment. Don't forget the weapon of mass destruction,... the one right in the center . My regular readers know what that is... The Zombie Roasting Flamethrower !! (a.k.a. my weed burning torch).
This will stop 'em!
Monkey Bars Giveaway and 15% Discount Code
My friends at Monkey Bars are giving one of these sweet racks away, just like mine, so you can outfit your own zombie apocalypse shelter with all the implements of destruction necessary to rid your yard of undead invaders.
Of course in peace time, a Zombie Survival Rack doubles as a serious yard tool rack. That's what I tell the neighbors mine is for. They'll be jealous when the ghouls are pounding on their doors.

Meanwhile, I'm ready to defend the haunted burial ground that has materialized in front of our house.
Yeah. We're that family on the block.
The first waves will be fended off with blood, sweat, and sharp yard tools. The final wave will be headed off with fistfuls of candy. Go ahead ghouls; knock on this door. We're ready.
What about you? Playing it safe this year? Remember to enter for the The Dead Giveaway - Zombie Survival Rack!
Hey! This is not a sponsored post. I just like my Monkey Bars Rack and think you'd like one too. When they asked me if I'd like to take part in this zombie campaign, I jumped on-board because it looked like fun and they'd offer the discount to my readers. - John
