The Silver Spring Zombie Walk is an annual event held on a Saturday night before Halloween in downtown Silver Spring, Maryland. In the zombie walk, participants dress up as zombies or some other form of the undead, as zombie hunters, or similar, and walk, in character, through the streets along a designated route.
For the 2013 event, zombies met up at the intersection of Georgia and Sligo Avenues, and walked around the eastern part of downtown Silver Spring, ending at the AFI Silver Theatre on Colesville Road, where a horror movie would be shown. The walk was rerouted due to a bomb threat at the Regal Majestic theater.
