Just Like Last Tuesday, Except with Zombies

Just Like Last Tuesday, Except with Zombies is a Glee fanfiction by angel-dawes, picking up very shortly after S1E12 Mattress.

The day starts out normally, but it soon becomes obvious that the dead have risen and Lima is completely overrun. The Glee Club, along with Sue, Jacob, and Emma, hole up in the school and prepare to face them, all the while dealing with other trials leftover such as teen romance, revenge, and pregnancy.

The story manages to keep a dark sense of humor throughout, but is can be very dark when it needs to and and isn't afraid to punch you in the gut.
