ArtsFlash: Quirk Classics No. 3's creepy and kinda adorable

Head over to brand-new quirkclassics.com, where our lovable local publishing house has just announced its third Quirk Classics title. First there was Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, then there was Sense and Sensibilities and Sea Monsters ' and now '

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: Dawn of the Dreadful!

Undead girls in frilly dresses? Sign us up.

From the site:

In this terrifying and hilarious prequel, we witness the genesis of the zombie plague in early-19th-century England. We watch Elizabeth Bennet evolve from a na've young teenager into a savage slayer of the undead. We laugh as she begins her first clumsy training with nunchucks and katana swords and cry when her first blush with romance goes tragically awry. Written by acclaimed novelist (and Edgar Award nominee) Steve Hockensmith, Dawn of the Dreadfuls invites Austen fans to step back into Regency England, Land of the Undead!

Is it too late to change our Halloween costume idea?
