With Halloween rapidly approaching, a West Yorkshire manufacturing firm may have stolen a march on that niche zombie apocalypse preparation market.

Tiger Log Cabins are advertising a new addition to their range of timber structures which they claim will provide “maximum protection” from an imminent threat of a zombie invasion.

The 44x30-foot Zombie Fortification Cabin (ZFC-1) features three sections designed to protect buyers from any flesh-eating army of the living dead.

The cabin comprises reinforced slit windows, walls and doors, an upper deck with a 360-degree vantage point and a barbed wire surround. It also comes with a kitchen area, a garden section to grow vegetables and a living area with an Xbox and a TV, so you can catch up on the latest episodes of The Walking Dead.

Priced at an eye-watering £70,000, consumers will at least have peace of mind that the ZFC-1 is delivered for free and comes with a 10-year guarantee offering protection against all forms of zombie, including “voodoo zombies, brooks zombies, and fast infected zombies” ... although Tiger will "require medical evidence of the presence of real zombies" should anybody wish to make a claim.
