Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: Dawn of the Dreadfuls–The Book Trailer

As if Android Karenina and Night of the Living Trekkies weren’t enough, Quirk Books will release Prejudice and Zombies: Dawn of the Dreadfuls–the upcoming prequel to the book that started the zombie-fication of literature trend.

The fairly violent and bloody book trailer for the title is embedded above. What more can we say? Add your thoughts about publishing’s most controversial trend in the comments section.

Here’s more about the book: “Readers will witness the birth of a heroine in Dawn of the Dreadfuls–a thrilling prequel set four years before the horrific events of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. As our story opens, the Bennet sisters are enjoying a peaceful life in the English country side. They idle away the days reading, gardening, and daydreaming about future husbands–until a funeral at the local parish goes strangely and horribly awry.”
