ACE Hardware is Here to Help…Against Zombies

Oct 11

Posted by

Everybody knows the best way to kill a zombie is to take out the head. And since most of us don’t known AK-47s or rocket launchers, we’d be left with shovels, hammers and other tools in the event of the zombie apocalypse. Well tool-gurus at ACE Hardware in some town called Westlake have fully embraced their role as the go-to place to stock up on zombie weapons!

Check out their nifty Zombie Center website.

Your one stop shop for zombie slop

Whoever wrote this up is an Internet hero. The world needs good zombie preparedness lessons, and who better than ACE Hardware to give it to them? It’s not like the government is doing anything to prepare us for the zombie apocalypse. And you know full well that they already have fancy emergency bunkers to live in should the inevitable happen! Well ACE Hardware is here for the people!

They have a helpful, downloadable Human’s Guide to Zombie Preparedness, as well as FAQs about zombie-proofing your home or keeping your dog safe. They display a wide array of available weaponry (ie: tools) for zombie-killing, as well as protective gear to wear while you’re bashing in a zombie’s gooey head. ACE Hardware has thought of everything!

They even have advice in case you’re turned into a zombie!

Because zombies need love too

    Glad you like it. It was fun to work on for Westlake. Got to love a client that is willing to go outside the box! I’ve passed your post on to the primary writer on the kit, she’ll get a kick out of being referred to an an internet hero.

    Wow really? Somebody who actually had a hand in making the ACE site found my blog about it? That’s pretty neat. Do you or anyone reading this know what gave ACE Hardware (or whoever) the idea for such a kit?

    What do you mean, no one in the government is doing anything to prepare folks for a zombie apocalypse? The Center for Disease Control is all over it:
