Philly Zombie Crawl FAQ
- What should I wear?
Come dressed as a zombie! Basic makeup may be available but it is suggested that you provide your own just to be sure you have some. For tips and ideas on how to look like a zombie go here.
- Is this legal?
Yes, yes it is.
- Is there an age limit?
For most of our annual events, yes there is. However, starting Easter 2011, we are creating an all-age element to our annual Easter Philly Zombie Crawl. Visit the Philly Zombie Crawl page for details.
- Will we be doing a lot of walking?
The crawl itself changes a bit from year to year, but in general you'll be going about a third of a mile. Easy work for a zombie.
- How much is it?
The Philly Zombie Crawl in of itself is a free event. But you will need to bring cash for any drinks and food you will want at the bars.
- How late does the Philly Zombie Crawl go?
Until 2am.
- Will someone do my makeup for me?
That depends - are you willing to pay for it as well as wait in line to have it done? If so then yes, there is. In fact the Philly Zombie Crawl has a long history of having professional makeup artists setting up shop to provide their services. If you do decide to have one of them do your makeup for you we highly suggest that you get to the Crawl as early as possible since there is always a line for the makeup artists.
- What bars will we go to?
Each year is a little different but the Crawl always begins at Tattooed Mom and ends at Fluid for Fast, Cheap & Out Of Control.
- What's with this zombie Jesus thing? You know you're all going to hell for it, right?
A) He came back from the dead (Acts 2:24). B) He encourages zombie behavior (John 6:53). That makes Jesus the perfect mascot for an Easter Day zombie event, like say the Philly Zombie Crawl. And you're going to hell for not believing in Zombie Jesus. Take that ya freak.

School proms are, but this is a zombie proms, which can be held anytime of the year. And we'd like to think that our zombie prom being held to kick off the Halloween session is the best of any type of prom.
