University Bans Zombies at Zombiefest

Florida Gulf Coast University will host a Halloween haunted house on Wednesday called Zombiefest. But The News-Press reported that no zombies will be allowed in. The university will not allow anyone in a costume, mask or face paint to enter. Officials said that a recent shooting at a zombie-themed event (not held on a college campus) has raised safety concerns. So the event at Florida Gulf Coast will be limited to students, who will be required to show identification cards with photographs that match their noncostumed faces.
