✦ Synopsis

Review

"Keaton combines smart, subversive high-mindedness with flat-out genre thrills like no one working today, and Zee Bee & Bee pulls off that balance about as well as you could hope for. It works just as well as an odd, slightly silly, weirdly romantic horror comedy, a heartfelt love letter to the width and breadth of zombie culture, and a wild and witty deconstruction of everything that's come before it."
-David Tallerman - Writing On The Moon

"_Zee Bee & Bee (a.k.a. Propeller Hats for the Dead)_ by David James Keaton offers an insightful riff on trend horror and contemporary pop culture very much akin that of early-'90s Wes Craven."
-Michael Compton - Fangoria Magazine

"Unfortunately, I just couldn't get into the writing style."
-Sarah Jahier - Fatally Yours

"David James Keaton gnaws his tongue-in-cheek to a bloody stump in Zee Bee & Bee, a slick stream-of-consciousness (consciousness? zombies?) tale. On its surface, the snarky narrative seems almost too clever, but read beyond the obvious genre affection and surprisingly heart-felt details of everyday life and you come away with a strange nostalgia and fear for a self-absorbed culture's obsession with their next slice of entertainment."
-Walt Hicks - Page Horrific

"There is some pretty clever dialogue that horror fans will appreciate though."
-Sarah Jahier - Fatally Yours

"Calling all zombiephiles (is that a word? who better to ask?) This is one zombie experience you don't want to wait until you're dead to have. Get your "Z" Love on. D.J.K. is the Zombie Man."
-Randy Chandler - author of Daemon of the Dark Wood and Dime Detective__

"B-B-B-Bollocks!"
-King George VI

Product Description

Told from the perspective of the sluggish employee of a "Zombie Bed & Breakfast" tourist trap, this horrific love letter (and middle finger) to the zombie capital of the world, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, chronicles the daily workings of a staged zombie assault and rehearsal of an apocalyptic scenario. The question of whether the cast are really attacking hotel guests, who is dead, alive, or just annoying as hell will be answered in a satisfyingly gruesome manner, sparked by an undead love triangle and a tipping point of post-modern, pop-culture references. Author David James Keaton first attempted to finance and run a Zombie Bed & Breakfast similar to the tragedy depicted here. However, this misguided get-rich quick scheme ended in disaster. Read this thinly veiled, fictionalized account of one tiny apocalypse, and do not let those poor souls dine in vain.
