zombie walk

Lurching corpse gait

A zombie walk is a public gathering where participants dress and act as zombies, shambling through streets in coordinated fashion.

These events range from flash mobs to organized charity fundraisers, often timed around Halloween: The annual zombie walk drew hundreds of undead downtown.

The term also describes the shuffling gait zombies use in horror films.
