First haunted bullet train event features a zombie outbreak on the Shinkansen.

Traveling by bullet train in Japan is an incredibly convenient and popular mode of transportation. It has become such a common choice that even the undead have started using it. That's right, even zombies are hopping on the Shinkansen to get from Tokyo to Osaka. It's not just any ordinary ride, though. Next month, the journey will take on a more terrifying twist.

For years, the Central Japan Railway has successfully kept zombies at bay on their high-speed rail route. However, on October 19, things will take a turn for the worse. A Nozomi super express train bound for Shin Osaka will depart Tokyo Station at 5:18 p.m. But before reaching its destination, two cars on the train will be overrun by flesh-eating zombies.

JR Central assures passengers that the outbreak will be contained to Cars 15 and 16. However, those unfortunate enough to be in those cars can expect a frightful encounter with the undead. More than 10 types of zombies will make an appearance, including zombie conductors, millionaire host players, high school sports teams, and even zombified versions of Osaka's fashionable middle-aged women.

But it's not just about scaring passengers. The zombies will also be showcasing their after-death lifestyle with dancing, a "living dead orchestra," and even a zombie magic show. The entire experience will last for about two hours of the two-and-a-half-hour ride.

Tickets for this unique Shinkansen haunted house are limited to 60 passengers, with 36 regular tickets available. Premium tickets will grant access to Car 16, where extra group photos with the zombies can be taken. The tickets, which include transportation from Tokyo to Osaka, are being offered through a lottery system on JR Central's website until October 4.

So if you're feeling brave enough, why not take a ride on the zombie-infested Shinkansen? Who knows, it might just be the most thrilling journey of your life. And don't forget to follow SoraNews24 on Facebook and Twitter for the latest articles!
