This married pair is the founders and the masterminds behind the Deadite Empire. Dead Fish has been a long-term staff of The Castle in Ybor City. Haunt Mistress is a 7-year veteran of scare acting at Tampa Bay’s local haunt attraction. Dead Fish is the one that creates the majority of the themes and games to our events. Haunt Mistress organizes these thoughts and helps deliver them to the masses.
When at an event Dead Fish is the Ring Leader to the crowd and Haunt Mistress is the manager of the staff and all things behind the scenes. Together they make the perfect pair for the Deadite Empire leaders and one would be lost without the other.

Highly recommended! It will tell you all the know hows and pros & cons of every weapon, clothing, fortress and how to deal with a level 1-4 outbreak. A MUST read for all you doomsdayers and paranoid zombie fans. Be prepared...
Heroes
Remember, Jesus was not the first zombie, he was a liche. Lazarus was the first zombie that Jesus brought back from the dead, which at that time made him a Necromancer. Later to date when he told his apostles to "eat of his flesh and drink of his blood" he began the transformation into the undead himself. And that my fiends, is your zombie history lesson for the day.
If we think more about death than some other people, it is probably because we love life more than they do.

We have MANY videos from our gatherings. Take a look at them HERE.
We are Tampa Bay Area's first official zombie social club! What does this mean besides that we love the zombie subculture? This means that we organize gatherings where we all dress up like zombies, usually to a theme on top of it, and flaunt our love for the undead. We participate in organized Charity Events, Walks, Pub Crawls, Ren Fairs, Conventions, and anything else we can get our rotten fingers on.
We are raunchy drunkards, we may offend and insult, but it is with the best of intentions. Just as the infection does not care of your race, religion, career, or anything else for that matter, nor do we. We accept all if we are accepted with the same respect.
We are here with the soul purpose of sharing and enjoying our one common interest...the undead.
These artists are a supporter of The Deadite Empire and we are a big supporter of them!
We'd like to meet future residents of The Deadite Empire. Horror Fans, zombie lovers, businesses and organizations in the horror field. Anyone into the Gothic-Industrial sub culture. Overall anyone into creepy, gruesome, scary, horror related things.
