Welcome back to Seabrook, where belonging is everything.

We're a strong, united and tight-knit community.

And that's a good thing 'cause it wasn't always this way.

There was a time when we had to protect ourselves.

Legend has it that when the first settlers came to Seabrook, they found wild beasts with sharp claws lurking in the forest.

Which sparked an epic battle.

Seabrook settlers bravely fought off the monstrous attack.

And discovered a powerful energy source.

Realizing they discovered a precious resource, they safeguarded it from the beasts.

They weren't going to let anyone steal their treasure.

So they hid it.

And the town prospered and grew rich by harnessing the precious energy source.

Seabrook benefited greatly as it grew strong, happy, and unified.

The beasts were a distant memory.

Seabrook forgot monsters could be real.

Until clearly, they were.

A little lime soda mixed with a dash of industrial strength Seabrook energy...

And boom!

Zombies were created.

In a lot of ways, Seabrook's moved on since then.

But it's hard to bury your past.

Zed comes out from the sand, growling at the kids.

"Let's go, let's go, let's go!" said the kids, running around the beach as he playfully growled.

"Hey, I'm Zed. And yup, still a zombie." He picks up Zoey. "For zombies in Seabrook, things are changing. Every day is better than the last. Seabrook is getting rid of all of its old anti-monster laws, so now Zombietown is open to everyone."

"Come on!" said Zoey, running off.

"Wait, wait, wait! No, Zoey, wait for me! Wait. Watch out!" He chased after her. "And business is booming."
