Game Industry Veteran Jeff Strain Opens Video Game Development Studio in Seattle, WA

Seattle, Washington – When flesh-eating, shambling undead corpses invade Seattle, Undead Labs will probably be the ones responsible. Video game industry veteran Jeff Strain today announced the formation of Undead Labs, a Seattle, Washington-based game development studio that’s on a mission to take online gaming in bold new directions. Undead Labs’ sole focus will be to create the definitive massively multiplayer online zombie game (MMOZ) for console gamers. Nothing screams funny quite like wading into a group of rotting zombies with lawn chair and a box of sharpened #2 pencils, and nothing says fun quite like doing it with your friends, whether online or on your couch. Undead Labs is committed to bringing to life an MMO loaded with action, humor and, of course, a whole lotta zombies, because the world doesn’t need more dragons. (read more)

So instead of declaring the haunts we like as the “best,” we’re featuring 25 Haunts that we think provide incredible haunting entertainment, unique events, and fantastic fun. We all have different opinions about what we like in a haunt: some like mood, others like gore; some prefer state-of-the-art animatronics, while others love actors. But we all know that the best measure of success lies in whether or not your customers scream. So, after much research and debate, we now present the 25 Must See Haunts for 2009. (read more)
