Thanks for a wonderful Philly Zombie Beach Party!!
Thanks to the hundreds of zombies who rose from the dead to join us at our 2nd annual Philly Zombie Beach Party at The Trocadero this past Friday, June 11!
Once again you zombies did not disappoint - there were some incredible costumes and zombies really got into the beach/nautical theme! Special thanks to Philly Zombie Crawl's magical make-up staff; they are truly talented machines that help create face after face for hours on end! KUDOS!
And a special shout-out to The SlotCars - who showed us all just how fun surf-punk music is live! Bet the rent they will rejoin us at next year's Beach Party!
Also, a tip 'o the hat to our friends at New York Zombie Crawl for heading down to Philly and making the night even more fun!
Finally, thanks to you - the zombies of the Greater Philadelphia region and beyond! It is because of your passion that we continue to plan and produce the Philly Zombie Crawl on Easter; the Philly Zombie Beach Party in June and of course - the big one - The Philly Zombie Prom in September.
Note that this year - due to demand - we've convinced The Trocadero that the zombies of Philadelphia want to party all night long; so this year's Philly Zombie Prom has been moved from a Sunday to SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 25! SAVE THE DATE!! You got three months to work on your Zombie Prom outfits so get goin!
Of course, the Beach Party wouldn't have been a PARTY if it wasn't for the uber-talented DJs Kiltboy and Dave Ghoul!
