Zombies!

What do we want?
-BRAINS!

When do we want them?
-NOW!

This past Saturday evening saw the annual Raleigh Zombie Walk return to downtown Raleigh. Although I didn’t dress the part, I was curious enough to go and see it for myself. What I saw was a surprisingly large number of people, including families with children in strollers, taking part in the walk. Because there was a wine festival taking part in Moore Square itself, the zombies had to gather along one side of the square, surprising a number of folks who were just walking by. They were overall friendly zombies, although one enthusiastic participant showed up with what I’m hoping was a chainsaw, but sans chain. Another kept chasing and tackling people like a zombie from 28 Days Later, his hands covered in copious amounts of blood. Unfortunately, being at 7pm in late October meant it was too dark to get a good picture of a van slowly passing by that got tagged with his bloody handprints.

When Toronto is full, the dead shall walk in Raleigh.
