You have to spend time running around the gravestones to get more of them to pop up. Basically avoid killing the boss for a few minutes while you rack up the zombie kills. Turns out to be relatively easy that way - I ran a PUG trial last night and we got all three badges with around 4 minutes to spare on the clock.
Good luck.

Spawning zombies:
1. After Abomination is active move yourselves and it to the graveyard.
2. Do not superspeed or fly.
3. Keep moving slowly around the whole graveyard.

Problem with this badge is that a stone tank can activate the costume power and still use granite without the costume turning off, but a Kheldian cannot transform to squid or dwarf mode as that will turn off the power.

I didn't have any problem at all with this badge on her.

You only need the costume 'on' at the time of defeat.

Ran the halloween trial last night eight times with pick up groups. On four heros I got all the badges. On one run we had just three people and beat the GM in the end ignoring the zombies. On a team of four we missed getting things done within 12 minutes timer, mostly because it felt the zombies spawned so slowly.
Is the best way to get the zombies by just walking in the graveyard or standing still?
Huh didnt know moving him around the gravestones makes them spawn....must do that next time I tank that monster with my rad corrupter

You don't have to drag him around to the graves. On the single run that I did with my Tanker late last night, we beat him down a bit, then everyone else went around the graveyard spawning and defeating zombies while I held his attention at the mausoleum door. He moved only maybe 20 feet from where he spawned for the whole thing, and we managed to get the 99 zombies and defeat him in time.|

But if you're toggle tanking with a Corruptor, you could just drag him around the Mausoleum. We did that on a team where our sturdiest melee was a Scrapper and we had no real support ATs. It would give you opportunities to break LoS and heal up. No real need to move him way out among the tombstones unless you want to.

I actually didnt have a problem staying alive, since it seems that all the zombies the others killed dropped basic insp, predominatly greens.

This was not my experience at all. We used Super Speed and Fly quite a bit, and spawned more than enough zombies to get the badge with a few minutes left on the timer.

Seriously, though, there was a change a while back that you keep powers up to FIVE levels above your exemp level. At level 29, you would have the powers you gained at levels 30 and 32.

One more trick, before spawning monster (going close to center) run on graves and spawn as many zombies you can without killing them. Then run to the center and wait for timer to appear.
If team has AoEs you can get 20 or more zombies in just few seconds.

I managed to kill 2 zombies that spawned before the fight with the monster started, while Dr. Kane was monologuing. When the thingy popped up, the kill count was 2/99.

you can use a costume and hide
those two work fine....
where did you think you couldnt?
Stalker has no issues with wearing a costume and using hide.
Now steath and concealment pool dont mix with it....but what stalker needs that?
Not sure about soldiers and widows....dont know what stealth they use....probably works as well as hide and probably better...

I have tried a few time to get this one, for those of you who dont know what it is, it is defeating 99 zombies then the final boss in the haunted house event.
I get to around 50 with a team of 4 (obviously) but the timer runs out, the zombies dont seem to spawn until the boss is on about 15% HP, is there any way of making them spawn before the %? otherwise you have about 5 mins to kill 99 and i dont see it being possible.
Thanks
