Welcome to the Asheville Zombie Walk
Throughout the past five years, we've been bringing you community fun in the form of a free, family event dripping with fake blood and shambling. This has always been, and will always remain a free event, that is fun for all ages.
We've gained notoriety and support not only from the surrounding community, and local press, but also going so far as to receive national media coverage. For all the support, we are eternally grateful. We hope to see you at the next walk!
But we do still plan to keep you entertained AAALLLL year round! Check our blog site more events, as well as general info, awesome reviews, and everything spooky!
Want to Help?
Can you shamble and groan with the best of them? Do you enjoy walking around dripping with fake blood? Do you have a love for horror make-up? Or how about just wield a mean staple gun?
THEN WE WANT TO TALK TO YOU!!
We are always looking for willing volunteers to zombie up for promotions, help with make-up, or even just put up fliers. If you'd like to be part of the Zombie Street Team, have photos of our past events you'd like to send us, zombie stories you'd like to share with us, or just want to tell us what your favorite flavor of Jell-O to make a brain mold with is, contact us at ZombieWalk@ashtoberfest.com
2006: The Beginning
With barely more promotion than a MySpace page, and on short notice, we ended up with a couple hundred zombies to take over downtown Asheville with

2007: Through the Cemetary Gates
Going strong on our second year, we began to gain momentum.

Oh, no!
2008: World War Z?
Certainly the most memorable Asheville Zombie Walk to date, this walk coincided with a political rally for Sarah Palin. While not only gaining amazing numbers in our zombie horde, this event gained national recognition.

2009: The Pub Shamble
Due to having a little too much fun the previous year, the City of Asheville required last-minute permits that ultimately hindered us from doing the Walk during 2009. Instead, we organized a Zombie Pub Shamble down Haywood Rd in West Asheville. And yes, we did still have plenty of fun.
Foul!
Stay tuned for more undead fun, updated pictures, and videos! Be sure to check out our Other Events page for more horror genre excitement!
