Thank you 2010 zombies!

Author: DeadMason | Filed under: Event Info

2010

Thank you all for another wonderful event. So many amazing costumes. Thanks to all of our costume contest winners, to Abigail Larson for her incredible event poster, to the new zombie bride and groom, to Carytown for being such good sports about it,  to New York Deli, Blood Lake, Regal Cinemas, Mark, Margaret, our new partners in crime RVA Freaks, American Cancer Society.. and anyone I can’t think of offhand.

I’m exhausted and the Halloween weekend has only begun.

We still have posters for sale ($5) and soon it will be a t-shirt (stay tuned for details on that).

We don’t have the official attendance, but we’re looking at 650+ easily.. official donations will be forthcoming as well.

Again, thank you Richmond for everything. We love you.

Dead Mason and Grey Matter

UPDATE: Thanks to your generosity, we have been able to raise over $900 ($920 exactly) in donations. Smashing last year’s donations by over $300. You guys are the best.

BRAINS?! You got it! No, really..

Author: DeadMason | Filed under: Miscellaneous

For all of you hungry undead that will be crawling the streets of Carytown in search of brains at tomorrow’s event,  New York Deli‘s mad scientist on the street will have a little treat for you – brains. Yes, they will be serving 100% REAL BRAINS in little cups to any zombie during the walk.

Again, yes, it is real. Yes, this delicacy will be prepared and served to you for consumption. And no, you don’t have to eat it if you don’t want, but I guess we’ll see who the real undead are among us.

If you were present at Fangoria’s video shoot for GWAR’s new video, then you are one of few undead blessed by our alien overlords’ presence. If you weren’t.. tough break y’all, because it was some good times!

Sorry you missed it though, but here’s the video proof showing what you missed. You may see some of your zombie bretheren in there and if you look really really hard you can spot your very own Richmond Zombie Walk wranglers in the mix too! ENJOY!

Let's do this! BLA-DOW!

WHEN

This year’s zombie walk will take place on Saturday, October 30th.

WHERE

Pre-walk meet up at Byrd Park (Boat Lake) is at 1pm and the actual walk will begin on the sidewalk in front of Kroger on W. Cary Stert in Carytown immediately after.


View 6th Annual Richmond Zombie Walk Locations in a larger map

***Reminder***
Plan your rides! This starting point is about 1 mile from the initial meet up spot.

WORKSHOPS

Do you want to go beyond the basic bloody mess of a freshly turned zombie? Luckily we have some of the goriest zombies who are willing to show you how fun making rotting flesh can be. Make up and costume workshops will be held in October. Upcoming details can be found at RichmondZombieWalk.com.

CONTESTS

CONTESTS
Here are the categories we’ll be judging. Prizes will be awarded at the pre-walk meet up.

- Most Disgusting

- Best Couple/Group Theme

- Best Pop Culture Theme (TV/Movie/Comic/Gaming)

Best Zombie Kid

- 2010 Zombie of the Year (Best Overall)

VICTIMS

Wanted: Willing victims (people to be turned into the undead during the event).

OUR PURPOSE

Our activities this year will benefit The American Cancer Society. Again,we won’t require anyone to make a donation, but if everyone can pitch in $5 each, it will be much appreciated. We were able to raise over $600 last year. An impressive goal that begs to be smashed this year. Let’s do this!

Again, stay tuned for upcoming information and details. If you have any questions, ideas or would like to help out in any way, send us a message at info@richmondzombiewalk.com

BRAAAIIINS!
