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.
