Jacksonville Zombie Walk

About me:

What is a Zombie Walk?

A zombie walk is an organized public gathering of two or more people who dress up in zombie costumes and make up. Zombie Walks usually take place in an urban center, the participants make their way around the city streets and through shopping malls in a somewhat orderly fashion and often limping and gnawing their way towards a local cemetery or movie theater. Participants are encouraged to remain in character as zombies and to communicate only in a manner consistent with zombies (grunts, groans and slurred moans calling for "brains".) Zombie Walks take place all over the world!

Want to help? Jacksonville Zombie Walk needs some sponsors and volunteers for some very cool upcoming events. If you are interested or know someone who is, please contact Jenifer through Myspace or at info@jaxzombiewalk.com
