WHY: The dead will rise (again) to feed their instincts for a cult-classic zombie parade at the 5th Annual Roosevelt Road Zombie Walk & Pub Crawl on Saturday, October 25. The event will feature zombie make-up, a pub crawl and an after-party at FitzGerald’s designed to rival even your fondest memories of Thriller. Participation in the event is $20 pre-pay or $25 at the door. Tickets include admission, exclusive drink specials for the zombified, make-up (if needed) and free eats provided at the after-party. The first 100 to purchase tickets will receive a FREE special edition commemorative t-shirt.
Horrorbles, Berwyn’s renowned horror and sci-fi collectibles store, will sponsor make-up and costume staging from 4:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. at Culver’s. Once properly attired, the reanimated horde will be led by the Grim Reaper on a pub-crawl that will overtake local bars along the road. In the true spirit of the un-dead, zombies will proceed between venues in silence. FitzGerald’s will host the catered after party. Once the crawl is over, zombies can resume their search for brains at their favorite Berwyn haunts until the late hours of the evening.
A portion of the event proceeds will support the Berwyn Arts Council. Food at the after-party will be donated by Big Guys Sausage Stand, Autre Monde Café & Spirits, Buona Restaurant, Capri Ristorante, Culver’s, Di Nico’s Pizza & Gelato, Nonna D’s Osteria & Pizzeria, Turano’s Mamma Susi Bakeshop and Wing Boss.
