From the title, I'd assumed it was a werewolf story.
Wesley: We were fighting on opposite sides, but it was the same war. Fred: but you hated her…didn't you? Wesley: It's not always about holding hands.

Should I find myself the protagonist of a horror story in progress, my policy is going to be that decapitation is a good idea no matter what sort of monster it actually turns out to be. Vampires, zombies, werewolves, Alan Arkin... if lopping the head off isn't fatal, it's at least going to make the antagonist a lot easier to get away from.

Alan Arkin! LOL. Was "Marly & Me" that scary?

Well, I was thinking Wait Until Dark.
I am the guy who, after seeing some thriller about an endangered housewife with with my mom, advised her that instead of pummeling a hypothetical attacker's chest helplessly she would do well to pop his eyes with her thumbnails and then grab a fire extinguisher and hit him in the head until things stop crunching and start making squishy noises.

I'm telling you, I'm running toward the buffistas houses at sign 2 that the apocalypse has started. I'm a gatherer and organizer, but not the best tactician.

I still think my moat strategy for self protection has a lot of virtue.

Oh, and let me put in a good word for Mira Grant's Feed novel, which does a good job of working out a consistent SFnal zombie-plagued world. (Working in a hospital becomes very interesting where the dead rise rather quickly....)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

My girlfriends are always appalled when I remind them of this strategy...one just had a robber in her house while she and her family slept...along with a good hardy rap to the trachea.
My psychotic criminal father wasn't good for much, but this advice stood me in good stead. Not the eye-popping, but the neck punch.
