Yeah, WWZ is like an extrapolation of the "Recorded Attacks" section of the Zombie Survival Guide. Which, by the way has one of the creepiest zombie scenarios ever...
Spoiler!
... the slave ship. The thought of being a slave is bad enough, but to be chained laying down in a line, with a zombie on one end, and waiting through the cycle of get bitten, die, re-animate, bite the next person, etc, listening to it come down the line, getting closer and closer, knowing your inevitable fate and not being able to do anything about it. That is just creepy as hell.
