More details on the Zombie Hunt:

The hunt is an archery course where you shoot a bow and arrow at mostly three-dimensional Zombie targets, said SRO Chris Erwin.

Participants receive a bow and arrow and fire the arrow at the Zombies situated in rooms with low light, black lights and strobe lights when requested. Archery teachers will help archers without experience. Parents may also help children pull the bow back.

"It's like a haunted house with target practice," Erwin said.

The Zombie Hunt will be from 2 p.m. to 11 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 28 and from 2 p.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 29 at the high school at 100 Bulldog Drive in Smyrna.

SRO Sgt. Bill West said families can participate in a carnival atmosphere outside with free games such as a bounce house, face painting, laser tag, beanbag toss, pumpkin decorating, balloon pop, pumpkin golf, donut eating contest, sack races and bowling for goats.

Vendors will provide food for sale.
