Calling all zombies! Could you make someone scream with terror? Are you scary enough to welcome humans to the chilling world of the undead?

We are looking for volunteers to be flesh-eating zombies at our Halloween event “Kent-aminated”. No experience is necessary  as training will be given – just the ability to terrify visitors with your vacant expression, weeping wounds and blood-thirsty look.

Successful volunteers will undergo a zombie transformation at the hands of skilled make-up artists. Then, as darkness falls each evening, you will help populate the family attraction as it transforms into Kent-aminated – a zombie-infested zone.

You would need to be available for a minimum of 3 evening shifts between 27th – 31st October. You would be required to volunteer from 5.30pm until approx 10.15pm.

To apply, please send an email to our Events Manager stating why you would like to volunteer at this event.
