A zombie crawl (sometimes called a zombie walk, zombie parade, zombie shuffle, etc.) is a fun social experience in which a large group of people dresses up like zombies and "creep" from one part of a -wn - another. It can also include events throughout the day, such as vendors, make-up, music, food and other entertainment.
The Eureka Springs Zombie Crawl also also includes events throughout the day, such as vendors, make-up, music, food and other entertainment. In addition - crawlers, the parade features street performers, scary parade floats, grim rides, and post-apocalyptic vehicles. This is a family-friendly event, not a bar-hopping zombie pub crawl. In our case, it is also a canned food drive for our local food bank.
