'''Old Arkham''' is a [[suburb]] of [[Malton]], located in the southwest of the city. Originally simply called '''Arkham''', it served as a trading outpost during the 1800's and was a separate entity until Malton expanded and eventually engulfed Arkham. By the 1970s Malton expanded past Arkham's original borders - the area west was dubbed [[New Arkham]], while the site of the original settlement became known as Old Arkham. Things were relatively quiet in Old Arkham up to the Outbreak. Zombies normally don't take much interest in Old Arkham because there simply aren't large amounts of survivors living here. | '''Old Arkham''' is a [[suburb]] of [[Malton]], located in the southwest of the city.

2023
The NecroTech Countermeasure Squad is conducting cross-border operations from Spicer Hills to clean up zombie movement and building destruction. Roughly a dozen zombies are active in this suburb at any given time, with some minor risk of break-in present when they join together. --Mikhail Vicktor (talk) 20:00, 11 December 2023 (UTC)
2021
Starting in December of 2020, the Old Arkham Reclamation Effort set out to restore Old Arkham. When the OARE arrived, the majority of buildings in Old Arkham were longtime ruins with triple-digit repair costs. At the time of writing, 90% of the buildings have been restored to recently ruined or ruined for some time, and the suburb's danger level has been updated to very dangerous. --AspiR (talk) 10:25, 31 January 2021 (UTC)
2020
19/11/2020 All buildings are ruined with very high repair costs. Around 40 zombies in the suburb, almost all of them hidden inside buildings on the eastern side of the suburb, 1 zombie per building. A week ago, I was killed when hiding in a dark building here by two zombies, both attacking simultaneously. Together with the eerily systematic building occupation, this suggests zombies here are perfectly coordinated. It is very dangerous for lone survivors to sleep in this suburb. --Jelito2008 (talk) 11:06, 19 November 2020 (UTC)

ROAR, the Reformed Old Arkham Republic has returned as a confirmed survivor group that is active. It coalesces with some of the smaller groups within Old Arkham under the umbrella of the SW Malton Crusaders. The historical ROAR board can be found at [1] The SW Malton Crusaders' board can be found at [2].
Revive Points
As of 22 August 2007, the Reformed Old Arkham Republic ROAR has adopted the use of indoor Revive Points. St Alda's Church (16, 96) and St. Neot's Church (13, 92) have been designated as Indoor Revive Points.
These buildings are to be left un-barricaded and are no-kill zones. Survivors and zombies alike are encouraged to assist in keeping these buildings barricade-free. Residents are also asked not to dump any bodies found inside these revive points, as these are likely to be revivified survivors. If you are seeking a revive and find yourself unable to enter a revive point, you may wait outside.
To request a NecroTech Technician's services, please make a request on the [3]. Please know that ROAR members will be revived before non-members.

Finding your way in Old Arkham can be difficult sometimes. Some have speculated that time and space itself distort in Old Arkham. Most historians, however, note the suburb's long history of settlement and occupation as the reason for its sometimes disorientating urban physiognomy. Over the centuries, literally layers upon layers of architecture have been built here. Meanwhile, events such as floods, or the freakish Great Fire of 1912, destroyed large parts of Old Arkham. Many of these areas were later rebuilt. Old Arkham is a suburb whose ancient, dense, often contradictory and enigma-riddled history is reflected in its streets and its buildings.
To assist visitors and residents alike, The Old Arkham Chamber of Commerce issued the following map which is reproduced below for your convenience.
