Beware: Zombies and gore!

Halloween is coming soon and there are a variety of events celebrating the spooky holiday here in Toronto during the weeks leading up to the big day. This weekend was an event I had always read about but never seen for myself, the Toronto Zombie Walk. The Zombie Walk helps support the Heart and Stroke Foundation and is a great excuse for people to get dressed up as the undead and walk around the streets of downtown Toronto. People go all out for this event as you'll see below. I'm posting some of the more mild pictures here on the blog, but if you'd like to see the full extent of costuming and gore click here for the picasa album (and remember it is all just excellent make up artistry!).
