Description

A rather grim imposing building with no windows greets the passengers using this rail station. The interior of the building is lit by flickering fluorescent lights creating a dull rave-like atmosphere to those brave enough to enter. The lone ticket booth stands in the centre of the room somehow creating an aura of darkness due to its poorly designed lighting system.

History

The name "Date Row" is often said mockingly as this station was the dumping ground for a serial "murderer" rapist in the late 90s. In 5 years, 11 victims were discovered in various states of decomposition and undress implying that the rapist returned to violate previous victims when his hunting was unsuccessful. After many investigations the victims were determined to be undead at the time of the attacks.

The case was declared "Closed-Unsolved" when the last victim was found in 1998 and no further bodies were discovered in the next 10 years. It is believed that the rapist was killed by zombies camping out in the ruined building (a fitting end since most of his victims were undead underage females).

If this is the case, this may be one of the few examples of zombie vigilantes.
