Fans of AMC’s hit TV show “The Walking Dead” can get a taste of an actual zombie apocalypse by participating in a unique event taking place in Midtown for a limited time.

“The Walking Dead Experience -- Chapter 1” is taking place at 218 14th St. near Atlantic station and takes fans through a series of zombie apocalypse scenarios based on the lore of “The Walking Dead,” FOX 5 says. The experience uses state of the art special effects, top notch makeup, and professional actors to simulate what it would be like to live in the world of “The Walking Dead.”

The 30-minute long experience is meant for a group of seven, who must survive “an adventure through the edge of a small town on the night the outbreak hit – the night zombies began their rampage and the social order began to unravel,” the event’s website says.

Participants can choose whether to be a survivor, a “walker,” a “hero walker,” a “sole survivor,” or a combo survivor/walker experience. Discounted tickets are available for students presenting a valid ID

The event will be held until Nov. 29. Admission costs $50 for a walker or survivor, $95 for the combo experience, $250 for the sole survivor experience, and $145 for the hero walker experience. Tickets can be purchased here.
