The Zombie Apocalypse Terrarium is an adorable way to grow a beautiful eco system and add some Halloween flair to your planter with [tiny walking dead figurines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pop-mart-chucky) trampling the area.

The zombie apocalypse may be upon us, according to the [AMC](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/limited-edition-skeleton-bottle) television show The Walking Dead, but one can bottle and preserve their own zombies in a tiny glass vase. Watching the zombies from the comfort of the other side of the glass is a great way to put a smile on your face. The Walking Dead-inspired terrarium is a great gift for any person who has a taste for science fiction-based comics.

The Zombie Apocalypse Terrarium comes with hand-picked moss and needs to be attended to as a [living plant](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tendril-1). The zombies, on the other hand, are not living.
