There was once a school that was always cheerful until that one day...... One student came too far in experiments and accidentally zombified his patient. From that day on, it was haunted by zombies. Only the student that invented them was safe and became their leader. That boy's name was "Z". Z was a high school student but was the most bullied before so he tried experimenting and created zombies. One day, a group of collage students wanted to test their courage and didn't fear going inside. Soon enough, 5 of them was infected by zombies so the group had to leave them.
