Well I have not had time yet to get my 2015 pictures on here, yesterday we attended the Salisbury Zombie Walk. Its the first zombie walk I have ever been too and oh it was fun. Usually the walks around here are all before Halloween and we are just too busy to do anything in October when the haunt is going up. This one got rescheduled because of rain last week.
Since I am doing a Tribute to the Walking Dead for my 2016 season I am in need of live zombies so I took flyers and handed them out. People were very nice to talk too and excited over the theme. I also talked to the leader who was in charge of the Thriller Dance performance......looks like maybe next year I just might pull it off. She said we'll get together and she is very interested.
They had 4 metal rock bands....what ya call that stuff? Punk Rock?. OMG I am still feeling a bit deaf from that, one of them performed at the local joint...Uncle Bucks....we stayed there and ate and listened to this music for over an hour. You could not talk to each other that's how wild & loud it was. All I could make out of what that dude was singing is>>>>>"I'm a *****, I'm a *****, I'm a *****!", absolutely insane.
That is where they stationed these poor actors from the Walking Dead. It was so hard to talk to them. I was so very excited to meet them both and they graciously took pictures and answered questions. It was such fun. I got 2 autographed pictures so I can frame them for Halloween next year. I told them about our plans next year to do the Walking Dead Tribute. They could not believe it when I said we were building close to 40 static props for the occasion. I told them how we were gonna set it up and that we needed live actors to play zombies too. Where better to find zombie lovers than a zombie walk.
Working feverously on my website. Also been out shopping for outfits for the first set of cast members we are making. Right now I'm more than 1/2 way with the first 10 outfits. Heads, faces, hands & hair will be done as we move along. I'll style the heads and place them on shelves so when we set up, the heads will go on the day before halloween so the elements don't hurt them. Got a few ideas about how to do the faces.....as soon as I get caught up I'll open a thread here for suggestions.
I really needed this Halloween to get me back on track. It was a great night. More importantly a thank you to all of you. Sometimes the words you type on here really have an effect on us. I just couldn't get my crew together to get the haunt up. So again this year 1/3 of it went up with hardly anything outside. Still we had a great time. Thanks for getting me over the hump!
