Red White and Dead Block Party

Hey Hey Seattle Zombies! This has been an amazing year for zombies in the Northwest. We have had a presence in parades, horror conventions and even Seattle’s Ride the Duck! The biggest undead event of the year is this saturday, I want to see you in all your rotting glory and help us return the World Record back to Seattle!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! UPDATE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here is the offical map of both the Red White & Dead Party and 5pm Zombie Walk
RWD Event and Zombie Walk Map
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Last year Seattle shattered the world record in the largest zombie walk in the world with 3,894 zombies at the Red White and Dead party! This was a gigantic zombie horde that shambled all over the city of Fremont. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNxVx0C3gYs&feature=player_embedded

Seattle only had the record for two months until the British stole the title with only 130 more zombies at the Big Chill Music Festival in the England, which narrowly edged out Seattle’s record. Come out and return the Guinness World Record back to our Country and crown Seattle the “Zombie Capital of the World.”

Seattle Zombies are Loud and Proud!

Seattle Pride Parade

MY ZOMBIE BROTHERS AND SISTERS LEND ME YOUR EARS!!!

I have a nightmare that one day future generations of zombies will be able to go to school with the living, that the government will not interfere with the love between a zombie and the living. That families will not be ripped apart just because a family member has died. I have a vision of couples living and dying in perfect harmony, growing with legalized zombie adoptions and consolidating with respectful decomposition.

Far too long our groans and shambling have been ignored! Far too often we have been used for target practice and forced to ride underneath the bus. Far too many times have zombie rights been trampled to preserve the happiness of the living. All because we love brains…

It’s true, we were once alive, but being re-animated does not mean we are not people too. But if you prick us do we not ooze?

Their pistols may aim for our heads, but their intolerance hits us right in the heart…

End the Hate and march for Zombie Rights!!

-Zombie Pope

Both Seattle Pride and the our vampire relatives the Seattle Goths are sympathetic to our cause and have asked us to join the Seattle Pride Parade this year! The pride parade is about Unity, Honor Diversity, and Achieve Equal Human Rights throughout our Region and the World. Some of undead knew a horribly racist world. They lived in hate crimes. They knew segregation. They knew discrimination.NOW that we are on our way to becoming an open and free and loving society that EVEN THE DEAD want to find that perfect loving society that they were so deprived of in life. All the undead, the gay and straight together, return to greet their living brethren in hopes that the world will unite in peace. The living and dead TOGETHER can find a place of unity and trust.

Who: Zombies willing to dress up and have a blast! Looking for peace signs like “Zombies are People too!” “DON’T HATE! DETERIORATE!” “ZOMBIE is the new Black” “I ♥ my gay undead son” “wish this march happened when I was alive and I would have Come OUT” “BRAINS!” “ALL WE WANT IS BRAINS!”

Where: Downtown Seattle on 4th street between Columbia and Cherry street, We will be with the Seattle Goth float #149

When: June 27th, The Parade will start rolling at 11am – our section will probably start moving around 11:30 – 12:00.

RULES: NO WEAPONS, NOTHING that would imply violence or hate (you can be dead and rotting but you can’t be a hater), NO BUSINESS SIGNS OR LOGOS, we are here to support the pride parade and not insult it.

Sponsor: a bat with your zombie name on it that will be pinned on the goth-float. Still available for a limited time!
Statement from Cate ‘Heretic Saint’ Leader of Seattle Gothic Pride about zombies in pride parade:
‘we are goths. we have a hearse in the parade. we have bats. we are like a little horror show. we have just as much right to be there as anybody and will not have our message and sexual diversity marginalized because somebody thinks we don’t fit into their little box.’

“We have been asked for the last 2 years to bring the Seattle Zombies to the Pride Parade, to help spread cheers and ‘ham it up’ as we are a crowd favorite wherever we shamble. I know these brings concerns to some but this is my thoughts on the matter. I am tired of seeing good people afraid of being who they really are because of the negative reactions it may bring. I may not have the power to stop the hate crimes that happen in this country, I may not be able to change laws so that everyone can be happy. What I do have is a zombie horde and more than willing to bring them down to a march of unity to show that even the dark spooky kids support the gay community.”
-Eric Pope, Organizer of the Seattle Zombie Walk
