We here at Tor.com love us some zombies, and judging from your comments and our webstats, a lot of you love zombies, too. And so it is with great pleasure that we announce the inevitable Tor.com Name-that-Zombie Caption Contest.

How do you play? It’s easy. All you have to do is come up with your best caption (50 words or less) for the zombie photo above, and post it as a comment in reply to this post. Our panel of judges will evaluate all of the entries, and our favorite one will be chosen as the winner.

The winner will receive a superfabulous zombie prize pack, containing:

  • One copy of The Living Dead edited by John Joseph Adams, signed by the editor and personalized however you wish.
  • One copy of Left 4 Dead, the hot new first-person shooter from Valve (available on PC and Xbox 360).

The undeadline is one week from today, February 13, Midnight (EST).

NO PURCHASE NECESSARY.  A PURCHASE DOES NOT INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING.  To participate in the “Zombie Caption” contest,  leave a comment including a caption for the posted image in the comments section below, beginning Friday, 06 February, 2009 and ending on Friday, 13 February, 2009. Winners will be selected on the basis of originality, humor and creativity, each factor applied equally.  Open to  registered users of Tor.com who are legal U.S. residents 18 years of age and older.  Void in Puerto Rico and where prohibited by law. For complete Official Rules, go here.  Sponsor:  Tor.com, a division of Macmillan, 175 5th Avenue, New York, NY 10010.

Updated: And we have a winner! Full details available here.
