Are you made of the fright stuff?

- BY EMILIA BONA emilia.bona@trinitymir­ror.com @emiliabona

HORROR fans on the look out for a job are in luck – Farmaggedo­n is recruiting staff to act like the living dead for their 2017 frightfest.

The spooky spectacula­r is returning to Farmer Ted’s in Downhollan­d and owner Mark Edwards is looking for a new cast of zombies to work at his scare attraction later this year.

So what exactly does it take to be a Farmaggedo­n zombie?

Mark said: “They need to have an open mind – they need to enjoy the whole zombie genre. They need to be horror fans.

“You have to stand in a scare attraction and start acting like a zombie – we are looking for the traits of a zombie.”

Zombies will be trained and given their own ghoulish “back story” before being unleashed on the public at the hugely popular horror event.

Mark also said the role can give people a huge confidence boost and allows them to join an amazing team.

He added: “It needs to be someone who’s not frightened to get stuck in, not frightened of hard work.

“You need to not be frightened of making a fool of yourself... or a ghoul of yourself.”

If you’re interested in becoming a Farmaggedo­n zombie then head to Farmer Ted’s Farm Park, Flatman’s Lane, Downhollan­d, L39 7HW, on Tuesday, May 2 at 7pm, or Saturday, May 6 at 11am. Applicants are asked to confirm their attendance via Facebook.

You need to bring along proof of ID and a CV and be prepared for a short interview where you can show the team why you want to be part of Farmaggedo­n 2017. Applicants must be 17 or older.
