HOMEPAGE OF THE DEAD will be dying soon...

On the 15th February 1997 the first version of Homepage of the Dead was uploaded to the internet. In the years that followed, spurred on by the enthusiasm of the community, it grew and grew to one of the largest sites on the internet dedicated to Romero's Living Dead films; with probably the largest collection of fiction, memorabilia, interviews and discussion available, much of it using bespoke software purpose written from the ground up.

Unfortunately, a few years ago, the workload and commitment required to update the site simply became too much, so most of the site was mothballed and parked with no further development taking place. Ie: No new fiction and memorabilia was added.

But the forum did carry on and continued to be a nice location for similarly minded people to hang out and share news and views.


HOWEVER, the hosting/running costs have continued to grow, and now these significant costs, combined with the effort of running the site, have simply become too much to justify. So it's with a very VERY heavy heart that it means, as things stand, this site will be closing in the coming few weeks.

The only fragments of HPotD that will remain will be:-
- The Forum
- Facebook
- X/Twitter

So, to everyone who's visited and enjoyed the site during the past 28 years, I thank you. It's been a huge part of my life and I'm glad you've enjoyed the ride with me. I'd suggest you at the least sign up to one of the options above. Come and join the Forum, and sign up on Facebook and/or X to keep getting news and discussion about the genre.

It's been one hell of a twenty eight year journey and in the words of Mr Romero...

Stay scared, Neil.


ps: If you want to contact me, you can email me on neil@homepageofthedead.com. But after the site goes down I'd recommend using the Forum.
