Zombie Apocalypse Combo (Wet or Dry)
Setup Area: 34' L x 18' W x 17' H
Actual Size: 30' L x 16' W x 15.5" H
Outlets: 1 Outlet Required
Bounce house + slide in one • Ages [[CONFIRM]] & up • Halloween parties, fall festivals & summer birthdays
Bounce. Climb. Slide. Run around and do it again. 🧟
Here's what most people miss about this unit. It's not a bounce house and it's not a slide — it's both, joined in one 30-foot piece. Kids bounce, climb an interior wall, drop down a full-height slide, and come around the front to go again.
That loop is the whole point. A bounce house is a room; kids pile in, bounce, and drift off when they've had enough. A combo gives them a circuit — something to finish, then immediately repeat. It's the difference between an attraction kids use once and one they stay on all afternoon.
💧 About the "Wet or Dry" in the name
This trips people up, so let's be direct about it. The unit does both, and you pick when you book — there's no price difference and no different equipment on our end.
Dry mode 🎃
No hose, no water, no wet kids, no soggy lot. Every October booking runs dry unless you specifically ask otherwise. If you found this page looking for a Halloween rental, this is what you're getting.
Wet mode 💦
Hook a garden hose to the slide and it becomes a water slide. Great for June through early September birthdays. You'll need a standard outdoor spigot — we connect it and show you how it works.
Booking for Halloween? Ignore the wet option entirely. We'll set it up dry, and the only thing that changes is that nobody goes home in a wet costume.
📸 A closer look
⏱ How long do you want it?
Base covers up to 6 hours. A 30-foot combo takes real time to stake out and inflate, so the extra window buys more than it looks like.
Standard rental. Fine for a two or three hour party if you're flexible about when we arrive.
Margin on both ends. For $35 you stop doing math about whether our delivery window overlaps the start of your party.
We set up the day before and collect the next morning. No truck in the driveway on party day, no crew working while guests arrive, and after dark the trick-or-treaters get to use it instead of watching us pack up. Seventy dollars. It's the upgrade people thank us for.
Friday before 2pm through Sunday after 2pm, or Saturday before 12pm through Monday after 12pm. A whole weekend for $175 more than one afternoon. Churches with a Friday trunk-or-treat and a Sunday event book this constantly.
Pick your length when you choose your date. Lock it in with 25% down — balance due before delivery. October weekends fill first. Get the date; you can adjust the length later if it's still open.
🔁 The loop kids get stuck in
This is what a combo does that a bounce house can't — it gives kids a circuit instead of a room.
A big open bounce floor under a mesh-walled canopy, with a cartoon zombie and a "Zombie Crossing" sign on the outside. Parents can see in from every side, which matters more than people expect.
An interior climb takes them from the bounce floor up to the slide platform. It's the part that separates a combo from a bounce house — there's an objective, not just a floor.
A full-height slide dumps them out at the front. Every trip ends on a drop, which is why the next kid is already climbing before this one hits the bottom.
And that's the loop. Kids self-organize into a rotation without an adult managing it — which is one less volunteer job at a festival, and one less thing for a parent to referee at a birthday.
🤔 Combo or plain bounce house?
We rent both, and they suit different yards and different crowds. Here's how to tell which one is yours.
| Zombie Combo | Haunted House / Jack-O'-Lantern | |
|---|---|---|
| What kids do | Bounce, climb, slide — a loop | Bounce |
| Space needed | 34' × 18' — a long, narrow run | 18'–22' square |
| Height clearance | 17 feet | 18–20 feet |
| Holds older kids | Yes — the climb and slide keep 8–12s interested | Less so — big kids tire of bouncing fast |
| Pick this one if | Your space is long and narrow, or your crowd spans a wide age range. | Your space is a square, or your crowd is mostly under six. |
The short version: shape decides this, not budget. A combo needs a long run. If your yard is a square, a bounce house is the right call and we'll tell you so. If you've got the length, the climb and slide are what keep the older kids from wandering off.
🏆 Why it belongs at a fall festival
The loop moves a line
Bounce houses hold a crowd in place. A bounce-climb-slide circuit keeps kids exiting and re-entering, so the queue actually advances instead of just standing there.
It holds the older kids
Eight to twelve-year-olds get bored of a bounce floor in about four minutes. A climb wall and a slide gives them something to do repeatedly — and older kids leaving early is what makes an event feel like it's ending.
Three things, one setup
Bounce zone, climb wall and slide in a single unit — one blower, one outlet, one spot in your yard. Three attractions' worth of activity without three deliveries to coordinate.
Scare level
Spooky — cartoon zombie, not horror
A green cartoon zombie with a goofy expression and a yellow road sign. It's closer to a video game than a horror movie — no fog, no strobes, no sound effects, nothing that moves or jumps out. Kids around five and up think it's hilarious. If your crowd skews toward preschoolers, the Jumpin' Jack-O'-Lantern and the Haunted Hideout are both rated Friendly.

⚠️ This one is long, not square. You need 34 feet by 18 feet — a run, not a box. That's the most common reason a yard that fits our bounce houses won't fit this. Pace it out before you book, or send us a photo with a rough measurement and we'll tell you. If your space is a square, one of our bounce houses is the better fit and we'll say so.
Height is manageable. Seventeen feet of clearance is less than our tall bounce houses need — but still look up for branches, wires and roof overhangs before you commit to a spot.
✅ What we need from you
- A flat 34' × 18' area — long, not square
- 17 feet of overhead clearance
- One outlet within 100 feet of the setup spot
- A gate or path wide enough for a hand truck
- Wet mode only: a standard outdoor spigot
- Area free of debris, sticks and animal waste
📦 What we bring
- Professional installation by our trained crew
- Blower, 100' extension cord and proper anchoring
- Hose connection if you're running it wet
- Tarp underneath when needed
- Full takedown and haul-away when you're done
☔ Zero-Risk Weather Policy
Bad forecast? Reschedule or cancel for a full refund as long as you tell us by the night before. Once we install and your event starts there are no refunds — so we'll help you make the right call before install day.
🕒 Delivery window
We contact you 24–48 hours ahead. The free Anytime option is a 24-hour window and you don't need to be home if you tell us exactly where it goes. Tighter? 2–4 hours is +$35, 60 minutes is +$75.
🎪 What to put next to it
A combo covers the middle and older kids well. It leaves two gaps — the toddlers who can't climb it, and the kids waiting for a turn.
For the toddlers
Haunted Hideout
Ages 2–8. A climb wall and a slide rule out the littlest kids — this gives them their own space, and gives their parents somewhere to stand and relax.

Line buster
The Haunted Wrecking Ball
Four players at once, rounds under a minute, and everyone waiting is watching instead of standing in a queue. The natural partner to a combo.

See The Fall Festival →❓ Common questions
Do I have to run it wet?
No — and for any fall or Halloween event we'd tell you not to. We run it completely dry unless you ask for water. No hose, no wet kids, no soggy yard. The wet option exists for summer birthdays; it's the same unit and the same price either way. You choose when you book.
Will it fit in my yard?
You need 34 feet by 18 feet — and note that's a long run, not a square. This is the most common reason a yard that fits a bounce house won't fit this. Clearance is 17 feet, so check for branches and wires too. Pace it out or send us a photo and we'll tell you before you book.
What's the difference between a combo and a bounce house?
A bounce house is one open floor. A combo adds an interior climb wall and a full-height slide, so kids have a circuit to run rather than a room to stand in. That's what holds eight to twelve-year-olds — they'll repeat a loop for an hour, but they're done with a bounce floor in about five minutes. The trade-off is footprint: a combo needs a long run instead of a square.
Is the zombie too scary for little kids?
It's a green cartoon zombie with a goofy expression next to a yellow "Zombie Crossing" road sign — closer to a video game than a horror movie. No fog, no strobes, no sounds, nothing that moves. We rate it Spooky, the middle of our three-level scale. Kids around five and up find it funny. For preschoolers, the Jumpin' Jack-O'-Lantern is rated Friendly.
Can I rent it in the summer?
Absolutely, and it's great wet. The zombie theme reads as fun rather than seasonal to most kids, and a water slide in July is a water slide in July. Summer dates are far easier to get than October ones.
How many kids can use it at once?
The bounce floor holds a good group, and because the climb and slide create a rotation, kids cycle through rather than staying put. At an event over roughly fifty kids you'll want a second attraction — a quick carnival game beside it does the job well.
What if I want it wet — what do I need?
Just a standard outdoor spigot within reach of the setup spot. We connect the hose and show you how it works. You'll also want to think about where the water drains — a slight slope away from the setup area is ideal.
What if it rains?
Our Zero-Risk Weather Policy lets you reschedule or cancel for a full refund as long as you let us know by the night before. Once we install and your event begins there are no refunds, so we'll help you make the call before install day.
Do you provide a certificate of insurance?
Yes, free of charge. Most schools and churches require one — tell us who to name and we'll send it over. We're fully insured and state licensed.
Do you set it up and take it down?
Yes. Our trained crew handles installation, anchoring and full takedown. You don't lift anything — just show us where it goes.
