On Sunday, December 13th, Woodgrove Mall in Nanaimo was invaded by the Undead!!

Well not really, but a group of Nanaimo zombie fans donned makeup and held a Zombie Walk in the Mall amidst all the Christmas shoppers!

For all of you who do not know what a Zombie Walk is, here is Wikipedias definiton:

A zombie walk (also known as a zombie mob, zombie march, zombie horde, zombie lurch, zombie shamble, zombie shuffle or zombie pub crawl) is an organized public gathering of people who dress up in zombie costumes. Usually taking place in an urban centre, the participants make their way around the city streets and through shopping malls in a somewhat orderly fashion and often limping their way towards a local cemetery or other public space (a series of taverns in the case of a zombie pub crawl).

I did not go into the mall as I had been warned that Mall Security would not allow any photography inside and I could see security at the door of the Mall waiting for the walk to take place. So I met all the participants as they arrived in the parking lot.

All the participants of the walk seemed to have lots of fun and were in great spirits and were more than happy to model in all sorts of ghoulish Zombie poses!
