ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
ALL zombies need to arrive at Base Camp in the Carousel House to get a wristband. This helps us keep a body count (we want to be the largest on the east coast!) and gets YOU exclusive discounts, freebies and deals all over town. If you miss getting a wristband, you can get one at any time at Paranormal Books & Curiosities on Cookman Avenue. We also have an Official Zombie Guide for you, with a map, schedule and a list of exclusive zombie-only deals. Ample parking can be found directly in front of the Carousel House, and the Asbury Park NJ Transit Train Station is within walking distance (on Main Street).
Throughout the day, we'll have a special quarantine area devoted to local artists, film makers, authors and special guests. They'll be exhibiting their work, recruiting for projects, selling their merchandise, signing books and handing out cool free stuff. Beginning at 11:00AM, we'll host a variety of presentations by special effects masters, who will demonstrate the tricks of the trade and how to achieve movie-quality make-up. You won't want to miss out on this!
As a way to give back to the community (and apologize for all the mass slaughtering), The New Jersey Zombie Walk has partnered with blood banks to host a Zombie Blood Drive. Even though you may be deader than a door nail, you can give life to those in need. Lend a helping (undead) hand and donate for a great cause.
What if I have more questions?
We'd be glad to answer them. Shoot us an email at zombiesbiting@me.com and we'll get right back to you!
All of the proceeds we make from sales will help fund the next Zombie Walk. Get them while they last. When they’re gone, they’re gone for good!
