I'm going to let you in on a little tip. You know, just betwixt me, you, and the wall. Don't tell nobody I told you, but I think the [next big thing in horror](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aldi-and-elladoesfx) is going to be zombies. I'm serious. They're an underused concept and I think they're completely ready to blow up.

Canadian artist Rob Sacchetto must think so too. He's offering to create [zombified portraits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portraitia) of you and your loved ones. Just send him a [photo reference](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/instant-headshot) and $80 US (+ $10 shipping and handling), and he'll dead you up something fierce.
