It is usually a serene two-and-a-half-hour ride on Japan’s famously efficient bullet train. But one recent journey quickly descended into a zombie apocalypse, with passengers screaming in terror.
Organisers of the adrenaline-filled trip on October 19, less than two weeks before Halloween, touted it as the “world’s first haunted house experience on a running shinkansen”.
On board one chartered car of the shinkansen – as Japanese call bullet trains – were around 40 thrill-seekers, ready to brave an encounter with the living dead between Tokyo and the western metropolis of Osaka.
The eerie experience was inspired by the hit 2016 South Korean action-horror movie Train to Busan, in which a father and daughter trapped on a moving train battle zombies hungry for human flesh.
All seemed normal at first as the bullet train made a peaceful departure on Saturday evening, but it was not long until the first gory attack.
