The screams outside awaken you. Hurriedly, you hop from your bed and slink into your soothing, soft slippers. Racing for the door, they give a hard tug, as if caught on a splinter. You pull and they rip and snap, sending you plummeting to the ground. That's when you notice the squirming, squishing, suckling feeling at your heels. Frightened, you look down your trembling legs and you realize that you're slowly being digested by the beheaded undead! You're now wearing your new pair of ZOMBIES AFOOT SLIPPERS.
