Marietta Zombie Walk

3rd Annual Marietta Zombie Walk
October 19, 2013
The Undead Helping The Living

Marietta, Georgia, August 7, 2013: We had hoped all was well...we were dead wrong. The undead of Marietta, Georgia are coming back. The undead of Marietta, Georgia are coming back again to help our community of the living on October 19, 2013 and for the third year the zombies will bring donations to support MUST Ministries. Over 400 undead put aside their hunger for brains in 2011 filling 6 barrels with food for humans and making substantial monetary donations to MUST Ministries. In 2012, the horde swelled to over 600 undead filling 14 barrels with human food and contributing over $1000 to help the local living in need. This year?

Carnival  Of  Doom

 is once again  sponsoring  the 3rd Annual Marietta Zombie Walk

benefiting those in need within our local community.  All  proceeds

and  collected  food  from

 the Marietta Zombie Walk goes directly

to MUST Ministries in their mission to help local humans in  need.  This

year,  we are  truly excited 

to be part of the  Marietta  Harvest 

Square Arts & Crafts Festival  and 

some  fun  post-walk “drive-in” double-feature in Glover

Park of Attack Of The Monsters & Night Of The Living Dead. 





What’s a Zombie Walk?  A Zombie Walk is an organized  (as organized as zombies can be) public

gathering of people dressed  in zombie

costumes (we hope these are only costumes). 

The  walks  take place in an urban center as the

participants make their way around  city

streets and  through  public  spaces

in an orderly fashion.  In Marietta, the

undead  will again roam the streets

around Marietta Square in a not-so-brisk 0.8 mile stumble.  This is an undead family event.





There’s a little undead  in all of us,  so bring out your  best zombie  look and  food donations (human cash & credit card donations

work) and join  the local undead  in Marietta Square.  Victims Spectators are welcome to come

play with us while helping  the local

food pantry  (zombies do not need  human  food   food 

for  humans, right?)  The Infestation (Gathering)  starts at 5pm in Glover Park after the  Festival. 

 The Feeding (Walk)  starts promptly at 6pm.  Makeup artists will be on hand  during  the

festival  to help bring out the undead for

a monetary donation or arrive already in character using your own creativity.
