Join us again this year as we go for our third Guinness World Record™ for the greatest number of zombies assembled in one location! This year's walk will take place at the Monroeville Mall from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. on Sunday, October 26, 2008. Registration begins at 9:00 a.m. Again this year, participants are asked to bring a non-perishable food item to benefit the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank. In 2008, the Monroeville Mall Zombie Walk will be the hub of World Zombie Day, with walks being held in cities worldwide for the benefit of local food banks. Details on where, when, and how to gather will posted at a later date.
1098 zombies earned Pittsburgh a second world record in 2007
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. Usually taking place in an urban centre, 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).
During the event participants are encouraged to remain in character as zombies and to communicate only in a manner consistent with zombies (such as grunts, groans and slurred moans calling for “brains”.)
