Legions of Zombies are making their way to the small town of Russellville on Oct. 25 as the Russellville Public Library hosts the 2nd Annual Zombie Walk.

Doors will open at 10 a.m. Festivities include a zombie makeup clinic, a zombie walk instructional class, and the main event will be a zombie parade through downtown Russellville starting at 5 p.m. at the library.

There will be a Brain Eating Contest, a Costume Competition and much more to follow.

The historic Roxy Theatre will also open its doors afterward for a showing of “Night of the Living Dead” at 7 p.m.

It’s free to walk and partial proceeds, made by the sale of T-shirts, novelty and food items, and the professional make-up that will be available will go to the Friends of the Russellville Public Library.

All participants must register with Russellville Public Library before 4 p.m. on Oct. 25. Children under the age of 16 will need a parent’s permission. Registration forms can be accessed from the Russellville Public Library Facebook page, the 2nd Annual Zombie Walk Russellville Alabama event page, or at the Russellville Public Library located at 110 E.
