Move over, Edward Cullen – vampires are so 2008.

In today’s ever-evolving dating landscape, where apps like Hinge promise "designed to be deleted," some adventurous singles are exploring relationships that are literally undying. Yes, we're talking about dating zombies. It is Halloween, after all, so get on board.

Because we’re amazing journos, we’ve done some research, put our brains together (not literally), and come up with the below. Read it, don’t read it – we don’t really care. I mean, it’s literally a piece about dating a dead body.

The Pros (Or Why Dating Dead Might Not Be All Bad)

Undying Devotion: Unlike your ex who "needed space," zombies offer commitment that lasts forever. Unlike Rose in Titanic, they’ll never let go… mainly because rigor mortis is a real commitment-maker.

Cultural Cache: In a world where everyone’s trying to stand out on social media, dating a zombie puts you right up there with Wednesday Addams in the alternative relationship department. Plus, you’ll always have a killer Halloween costume duo ready to go.

Budget-Friendly: Forget expensive dinner dates at fancy restaurants or arguing over takeout. Your partner’s tastes are refreshingly simple – throw them a carrot if they’re vegan or a bit of fat off your steak if they still hanker after some protein. Just fill them up, though. You don’t want them chowing down on you later (wait…).

Survival Skills On Point: Living with a zombie is basically like having a personal trainer for the apocalypse. You’ll develop cardio skills, understand how your zombie partner works (we can’t even do that with actual alive partners), so you’ll be ready to defeat the horde – and you can ditch them in a ditch at the first sign of trouble, guilt-free (come here, smuggle wuggle).

Drama-Free Family Dynamics: No awkward holiday dinners with the in-laws or being dragged to family reunions. Though you might want to keep your own family gatherings short; Dad, Mum, or whoever may not be impressed with crusty decomposing flesh dropping onto the dinner table.

A Silent Listener: Having a bad day? Need to vent? Your zombie partner will never interrupt your stories or try to one-up your problems. Though their advice usually consists of "urghhhh," and they may try to eat your face.

Fashion Freedom: They’re not going to judge your clothes or style. In fact, their own "distressed" look makes grunge seem positively formal.

The Cons (Or Why This Might Bite You in the End)

Table Manners from Hell: Not only is there a risk of crusty decomposed flesh dropping onto the dinner table, but the flies landing on your Chicken Cassoulet or Mushroom Pâté may be a bit much for anyone to bear.

Communication Challenges: While the strong, silent type has its appeal, conversations limited to groans and meaningful stares won’t get you far… but hey, it might be an improvement on your current relationship?

Safety Concerns: Let’s channel Rick Grimes here – you’ll need to establish some firm boundaries. "No biting" should be rule number one, really putting typical relationship red flags into perspective. You may want to put a chain around their neck (again… wait…).

Social Life Complications: Your friends might not be as understanding as Shaun’s were in Shaun of the Dead. Expect some awkward explanations at brunch or the pub when you introduce your new boo, and what if your friends get dead jealous?

Aromatic Adventures: Firstly, we’re pretty sure necrophilia is still illegal. Secondly, the smell of rotting meat may put you off (unless you’re into that). Thirdly – what the fuck? Are you really going to get your freak on with a corpse, even if it still looks like a vaguely hot shadow of its former self?

Limited Date Options: The cinema is tricky when your partner keeps trying to eat the head of the person in front of them. Also, walking them around town on a chain, except on Halloween night, might raise some eyebrows.

Career Complications: Take it from Pride and Prejudice and Zombies – mixing the undead with professional life can be tricky. Zoom calls become particularly challenging when your partner starts lurking in the background making "deadness" sounds. Imagine being told to turn your mic off constantly – how’re you supposed to speak? Ok, headphones help, but still – distracting!

So, is dating a zombie worth it? Well, as World War Z taught us, life's full of unexpected adventures.

While it might not be the romance you envisioned can you honestly say it wouldn’t be better than your dating or romantic life now? (you freak)
