WE DID IT!!!
Jul. 6th, 2009 | 12:11 pm
Hey Seattle Zombies we did it, we broke the world record for the zombie walk! Officially can confirm 3,848 zombies signed the registrations, we were told we had close to well over 6,000 people. The next step is waiting for the approval of the Guinness World Records org. We had so much fun walking, playing and dancing with Seattle's creepiest and well dressed zombies.
Ryan and John of the Fremont outdoor Cinemas thank you for hosting this event, your hard work and efforts paid off. Zombies from many different corners of the pacific northwest came out for this event! Hats off to Anthony and the gang at night zero http://www.nightzero.com/ for their photo booth and excellent zombie makeup skills. The quality you bring to zombie events raises the bar everytime. Round of applause for Seattle Thrillers for leading the Thriller Dance and the amazing volunteer staff for making this a safe event. A huge "BRRAAAAAAAIIIIINNNNSSSS" chant to every single zombie who showed up to make this gathering epic!
Here are some news articles, videos and photos. Post more if you find them!

Tomorrow in Fremont it happens again...

----------------------------------------
We are excited once again to bring the zombie horde to Fremont, already the online responses have been huge and we can't wait to see everyone. We will have a bunch of new "rotting" faces joining us, so as a reminder to those who haven't done this before here are the basics to know.
* As mentioned previously - zombies are only really effective when traveling together in large groups. Bring your friends, foes, family and other loved ones.
*Check other sections of this LJ for makeup tips etc....
*TRY TAKING PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION TO AND FROM THE EVENT!
Potentially useful things to keep in mind:
1. Participate at your own risk.
2. Do not pretend to “attack” people not part of Zombie Walk who do not obviously want to be involved.
3. Only swarm parked cars because, if we cause traffic problems, the Police will interfere.
4. There are no permits for this event. Be safe and look out for the safety of others!

Zombies walk at the Pride Parade
Jun. 19th, 2009 | 06:49 pm
Show your zombie pride! We are in for joining the Pride Parade. Please don’t come as a zombie hunter because it will likely be misunderstood in context of a parade for love and understanding. Bring no weapons and talk up the July 3rd walk.
This will be next Sunday June 28th from 11am to 4pm we will be joining the Goths, http://www.flickr.com/photos/nellarroba
http://www.seattlepride.org/
Here are some photos from a previous parade, we hope this brings some inspiration for ideas.
http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=cap
We think it would be great to see zombies with peace signs that say funny things, zombie drag queens, Zombies passing out balloons, beads, etc. We have seen some amazing costumes and ideas from the zombie walk, lets find something that can fit the bill for the pride parade.
Lets spread the zombie love and get Seattle excited for our July 3rd zombie bash!!!
We need around 20 zombies to show up to help share the love, anyone who is interested please send an email to cleozombie@gmail.com first come first dead.. ok bad pun, my apologies. Even if you think its too late bounce us an email we can always use heroes and victims to weave through the crowds (just no weapons for this walk ;p )
Spread the word about the Red, White and Dead Zombie Party!
http://cleozombie.livejournal.com/1
Remember the success of zombie walks are you! The numbers come from spreading the word… Talk about it to your friends, blog about it, email it, tell your mother even… Keep it up Seattle!

Halloween Mahem this Fri....Are U Game?
Oct. 27th, 2008 | 11:57 am
mood: 
giddy
Halloween-(Oct. 31st is on a Fri. Night this year!)
There’s lots of stuff happening……For Zombies!
1st stop: Trollaween
Starts: The Fremont Troll
N 36th St, Seattle, WA
Directions: Under the Aurora Ave. Bridge -- sometimes called the George Washington Bridge -- at N. 36th Street.
Ends: Under The Fremont Bridge
The bridge that connects Fremont and 4th Avenues N. 30 feet over Seattle's Fremont Cut between Fremont and Queen Anne.
Trollaween is a 18 year (?) tradition of Halloween vaudvillesque community theater. It starts at dusk under the Aurora Bridge at the Troll and the second act parades on down to finale at the Fremont Bridge (which is the drawbridge by the canal). At this second stage the closing act is a live band playing Thriller. The coordinator of Trollaween asked me to wrangle zombies to shamble out of the crowd to perform the Thriller dance as the finale. We need dancers...Preferably people who know the dance somewhere in the hour between 8:30 and 9:30. Zombies and scary costumes welcome!
*Please contact me with your contact info if you want to be involved. I’ve got some extra tickets to Jet City Improv’s Zombie Apocalypse show (listed below) that night and Boo (listed below) for RSVP participants.
Boo
Fremont Studios
155 N. 35th Seattle WA 98103

Zombies invade the HUT
The Historic University Theater: 5510 University Way NE / Seattle, WA
9:30pm – 10:30pm Twisted Flick zombie movie with improv stage show.
Tickets: $10.
The Twisted Flick is from 8:00pm-9:30pm; tickets will go on sale sometime between 7:15 and 7:30 or can be bought online to guarantee a seat.
http://www.jetcityimprov.com/tickets.ph
Twisted Flicks is a movie experience like no other. A classic, "B" movie is shown without its original soundtrack. All dialog, sound effects and music are improvised live by Jet City Improv group, based on suggestions from that night's audience. The show is fun, fast-paced, funny and suitable for all ages.
10:30pm – 11:30pm Zombie Apocalypse scenario performance by Jet City Improv
The show will go until midnight
Then…
Everything goes awry when our Seattle ZW zombie horde invades. The directors of the theater invite Seattle's zombies to "invade" the lobby, and pour into the theater at the end of the movie, surprising the guests and staying for the Halloween party. This is FREE for zombies.
Free Zombie Party at the Historic University Theater 11:30PM-2:00AM!
Zombie Party will start right around midnight.

All dialog, sound effects and music are improvised live by Jet City Improv group, based on suggestions from that night's audience. The show is fun, fast-paced, funny and suitable for all ages.
10:30pm – 11:30pm Zombie Apocalypse scenario performance by Jet City Improv
The show will go until midnight
Then…
Everything goes awry when our Seattle ZW zombie horde invades. The directors of the theater invite Seattle's zombies to "invade" the lobby, and pour into the theater at the end of the movie, surprising the guests and staying for the Halloween party. This is FREE for zombies.
Free Zombie Party at the Historic University Theater 11:30PM-2:00AM!
Zombie Party will start right around midnight.

It was a beautiful sunny day to walk and we had close to 250 in our hoard as we fed along California Ave. I really had fun fighting for the hoarded body parts other zombies were eating, playing kickball with severed heads, and watching people practice rising from the gtrave in piles of fallen leaves. :)

4th Annual Seattle Zombie Walk 2008!
Oct. 14th, 2008 | 11:56 am
location: West Seattle
mood: horny
Oct 26th 4:00pm
4th Annual Seattle Zombie Walk
West Seattle
Yea yeah, we liked it in Fremont……but Zombie Walk has become a parade. Let's get the "invading small town America" scenario going. Where else has that feel than California Ave in West Seattle? Join us for chasing down some fresh meat for our rotting bodies…..
Here is the rough plan……
3:45 We gather at the back of the Rite Aid parking lot. The parking lot there is huge and there is lots of free residential parking all around that area.
Rite Aid
5217 California Ave SW West Seattle WA 98136
(just south of the Alaska junction)
(We recommend that you take the bus because we’ll be walking far from the car area anyways) Plus, the 55, 54, 21 and 22 buses go straight to the California Alaska junction. The 54 will drop zombies off directly at the Rite Aid on California.
4:00 The horde is assembled and moves along California towards Alaska. We detour to Jefferson square which would be great place to shop for "braaiiins" at the Safeway and maybe the hazmat suit guys want to come out again and attempt to keep the crowd “safe”. Then we shamble along to around the Junction of California and Alaska for more zombie hahem. Where is that zombie marching band? Anyone habe drums? Tuba? Then we trek up California to the Admiral Junction which is about a mile away. We pass a church where some ministers will surely be doing some zombie apocalypse preaching at us. (Ahem, Ministers?) We keep plodding along California and eventually end up at Admiral Way
6:30ish We arrive at the Admiral Junction. Once there, there's nearby dinner choices.... There's pizza (cheap option), Angelina's for Italian, and an Indian restaurant for dinner.
7:30ish 21+ zombie time.
Cocktails at 7:30pm to 8:30pm at Mission (2325 California Ave 98116)
8:30 Karaoke at Yen Wor from 8:30 until you’re zombied out.
(2300 California Ave 98116)
After that, the buses that go downtown are 56, 57 and 55. 55 will also get you back to your car by Rite Aid every 1/2 hr.
More info TBA

October 11th Sat.4pm till Midnight
Revenant Magazine Zombie Film Festival
at MOHAI in McCurdy Park
There are some great films lined up for this year. You can find more info and watch trailers at www.revenantfilmfest.com. We tried a Zombie Walk to this venue last year but had trouble with the sports fans at Husky Stadium. This year will still be a spectacle of shambling costume oriented zombie activity but focused close around the venue by the canal, field and surrounding brush and trees which is a fabulous setting to try filming our own little scenes, stage some gory photographs, performance art etc. This is also a great place to park/show off the tricked out hearses, ambulances and grizzly vehicles I know some of you have. Any ideas about how to encourage participation with zombie antics? Zombie valets? Zombie waiters? Anyone want to help make zombie hours'douvres? Please comment!

The Thriller dance is fun and easy to learn. It takes an hour to become familiar with the individual steps and another hour to put them together into the routine. The Thrill The World website has free online videos that teach the dance and Seattle Thrillers is hosting weekly local rehearsals in Seattle and on the Eastside.
In addition to building community and having a great time, Seattle Thrillers is using the project as an opportunity to raise money for ROOTS (Rising out of the Shadows) which is a homeless shelter for teens and young adults in the University District of Seattle.

Seattle Zombies Pub Crawl for 2008!
Sep. 25th, 2008 | 11:55 pm
location: seattle
mood: thirsty
Oct 4th Fremont 8:30pm
Sat nite Zombie Pub Crawl
Staring at The Ballroom- 456 N 36th St. Seattle, WA, 98103
This is officially the first zombie social of the season and a 21 and up outing. (Sorry kids) Zombies get up out of your resting place early and pull your outfit together because there is no cover before 9:30. Come dressed to kill EARLY, and get stamped so you can come and go as the night progresses without paying the regular $7.00 at the door. It's also a good time to bring out your zombie sketches and copies of short stories etc. to share with people who love that sh*t. Try out mixing with the living, then revel in the revolting nature of your own kind. Alcohol preserves rotting flesh so... "Bottoms up!. This is also a great opportunity to chat up the locals about the zombie film genre. There are quite a few zombie aficionados in our midst. There is a zombie Film festival the following Saturday and plenty of folks in the mob to chat with you about the unique indie films that will be screened at the second annual Revenant Zombie Film Festival.
Thanks so much for shambling with us if you were able to make it!
Here are 2 links with great pics to the latest Seattle PI article:

What do you think of this role-playing Humans vs. Zombies game?
Apr. 15th, 2008 | 10:21 am
mood: curious
There is a new live action role-playing game called Humans vs.Zombies that can take weeks to play out. The article below has interesting commentary on what it means to wage a faux war as a mirror to the values in our society vs.imagination games and play. As more and more zombie hunters engage in Zombie Walk there could be a new dynamic. I personally am not into military planning and attacking guys who think they are commandos. Where is the balance?
Here is the story......it's a fun read.

There is a great place to post pictures if you have them and peruse the cool ones that are already there. Flickr.com has a Zombies in the Pacific Northwest Group I administer: http://www.flickr.com/groups/seattlezom
Share your pics with the horde!
When you post be sure to tag the photos FremontZombieWalk2007 so everyone knows which walk the pictures pertain to.
BTW There is no Official Walk at U-Village this year.......rumor got spread because of a typo on my part....sorry......
There is however, a November Zombie Pub Crawl organized by a different crew in November.......

Zombie Walk October 21st 2007
Oct. 11th, 2007 | 12:38 pm
mood: dirty
Walk with your un-dead brethren through the streets of Seattle in the light of day. With all your gore and glory, let’s mob Fremont! Be one of us because you are a Horror movie fan, because you love cosplay, or just for the hell of it! How often do you get to participate in something this weird and free? All that is required is that you show up in costume, respect traffic laws and practice common sense. Bring your friends! Nothing says you love someone quite like caking yourself in make-up, limping down the street together and eating them by a big bronze of Lenin!
OCT 21st- Fremont
Start: 2:45pm sharp
Meet: @ THE TROLL under the Aurora Bridge.
North 36th Street at Troll Avenue North
Seattle, Washington 98103
Milling in Fremont from 3:00pm-4:30PM
Stopping by various establishments.....arriving at Hale's Ales by about 5:00pm for food and drink. Under 21 ok.
* As mentioned previously - zombies are only really effective when traveling together in large groups. Bring your friends, foes, family and other loved ones.
*Check other sections of this LJ for makeup tips etc....
*TRY TAKING PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION TO AND FROM THE EVENT!
Potentially useful things to keep in mind:
1. Participate at your own risk.
2. Do not pretend to “attack” people not part of Zombie Walk who do not obviously want to be involved.
3. Only swarm parked cars because, if we cause traffic problems, the Police will interfere.
4. There are no permits for this event. Be safe and look out for the safety of others!

HA! Zombies give a PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT on komo 4!
Oct. 2nd, 2007 | 11:50 am
location: Seattle
mood: hopeful
Hi there my Un-dead Brethren,
It’s getting close to this year’s Zombie Walk and even closer to the date on which Zombies will take the opportunity to make a Public Service Announcement with Northwest Afternoon (KOMO 4) in costume at the station to be aired as a commercial. I have received a surprising amount of interest about this, but I’m afraid we still might be a few people short of our quota. Zombie Walk is required a minimum 15 people for Northwest Afternoon’s live studio audience in exchange for advertising time.
Here is who has expressed interest so far:
WendyZombie
MichelleZombie
AmberZombie + Daughter
CleoZombie
JulianZombie
RonnieEarlZombie
JPZombie
JoshZombie
TraciZombie
PatrickZombie
HeatherZombie
FuyuZombie
PunkJr.Zombie
MontineZombie
As you can see, we are doing pretty well! Please check to see if your name is there if it should be and email me if you need to cancel.
I don’t have real names or contact info for a few of you…...
If you haven’t signed up and think you might be able to join us for the show on Oct 11th PLEASE RSVP!
If any of you have thoughts on this please email me: cleozombie@gmail.com
Date of Show: Thursday October 11th
Number of people: 15 (Minimum, the more the merrier!)
Arrive: 9:00am
Leave: 10:50am
Show Topic: What’s for Dinner
Zombies can take public transportation…
Seattle has a fairly adequate bus system and as driver's licenses expire along with the license holder, most zombies can't drive legally. And even if they could, they are notoriously slow in the reflex department. Even among the living, there are many who choose not to drive and so it might be a good future practice to encourage bus ridership in addition to providing driving and parking instructions. To help prevent more people from becoming zombies, check out the bus route information Metro bus information can be found here: http://transit.metrokc.gov
What to expect when you arrive:
8:45 am: Cleo Zombie will be at the coffee house closest to the station. Visit with her if you don’t want to go in alone….
9:00am: PSA Spokespeople (up to 8 people, who will be filmed on the PSA) sign in and go up to our studio.
9:05am: The remainder of your 15 person group will be checked in. Note: everyone does not need to be in costume. Please advise this part of your group that they will be checked in AFTER the costumed PSA spokespeople are checked in.
9:10am: PSA’s are shot in our studio.
9:20am: The rest of the audience (and the rest of your 15 person group) is brought up.
9:20-10:00am: Learn how to be great audience....Fun Contests (prizes anyone?)....and meet our fabulous hosts!
10:00am -10:50am: You and your group are a part of our lively studio audience.
**Your PSA will air later in the day when our show airs from 3-4pm. Your PSA will air once between 3:35 and 3:55pm.
DRIVING DIRECTIONS
Northwest Afternoon is located in the new Fisher Plaza next to the Space Needle. Fisher Plaza is located at 140 Fourth Avenue North in Seattle, just due South of the Space Needle. Our cross streets are Fourth Avenue North and Broad Street.
From I-5 North or South, take the Mercer Street/Seattle Center exit and follow the signs to Seattle Center. Turn left on Fifth Avenue and then make a right on John Street (you’ll notice yourself traveling parallel to the Monorail for a moment). Once on John Street, you'll see our underground parking lot in the basement of the new Fisher Plaza Building. Entrance is also right there on John Street.
PARKING
Parking is available in the Fisher Plaza parking garage located on the John St. side of the building. There is also parking available in area lots located on both the west and east side of the building. If parking in the Fisher Plaza garage, please be sure to take your parking stub with you and proceed to the public elevators. When exiting the elevators, take a right and proceed to the lobby in front of you.
The cost for parking in the Fisher Plaza parking garage is discounted for you as an audience member at Northwest Afternoon. When you leave the parking garage after the show, let them know you were with a group attending our show and they will discount your parking to $5.00.
Yours cruelly,
-CleoZombie

Sept 15th Zombie Film Festival in review
Sep. 18th, 2007 | 12:56 pm
mood: exanimate
Thanks to all of you zombie lovers who came out to brave the Zombie Walk from Husky Stadium on Saturday. It was by far the toughest crowd to mingle into as a Zombie that I have ever experienced. Kudos to those of you who don’t give a fuck what others think of you and brave enough to stay in character! Thank you so much for dealing with the parking hassle and the crowds to join us.
About twenty brave undead brethren made the scene and more were at the Museum of History and Industry when we returned from our jock feast. There we were in our blood and rotting flesh amidst the massive tailgate party in Husky Stadium. One man asked me if I felt uncomfortable being so outnumbered. I told him: "Yea....but that’s just it about zombies ....every time we bite one of you, you join our team!" I am not a sports fan and did not expect to see that many people and tent canopies out there! Holy Shit! It was a sea of preppy purple jerseys, folding chairs, and tailgate parties. People did not know what to make of us. They thought we were Ohio State fans or protesting something. It was very challenging to remain in character. Ohhh the characters we were though! There were some "stumbling into camp" zombies, school girl zombies, afro zombies, zombie bums, Starbucks barista zombies, a zombies who brought a severed leg to snack on and a brave zombie hunter girl with a foam bat for protection. Despite the huffy Husky crowd we did our best. I actually had a mother come chew me out for scaring a little kid. I told her that "some kid's like to be scared" and I apologized for making that particular little boy cry. I was proud of my Zombie self for acquiring 1 exquisite Asian girl scream( my favorite kind), winning a stare down contest with a thick necked blonde-haired Frat boy, and sneaking up on people which resulted in four people throwing their beer cups up in the air. Arguuuuuhhhhh! We decided to clear out when I witnessed a particularly exuberant zombie have an old woman throw a beer can at his head for getting in her space.......Ouch! No fights with drunken frat boys for me or my kin, thank you.
Then we went to the Auditorium at MOHAI via the Montlake Bridge. Nice walk, some car shaking and squabbling over the severed leg…… At the Auditorium we took some classic pictures. I'd covered my car with gut-like material in advance to set the scene and laid out a mannequin I artfully enhanced for zombie flesh eating enjoyment. There were some great pictures of that! We also staged a classic "Night of the Living Dead" type photo shoot out in a field of long dead grass outside the Museum.

Feel free to post more pictures and comment with your experiences at any of the Seattle Zombie sites.
The films shown were varied and enjoyable, although I was unable to stay for all of them. What did y’all think of the films?
I'll post soon about the next upcomming ZOMBIE WALK in mid October.
