Zombies will be taking over the streets of Liverpool city centre this October... but it’s all for a good cause.

Liverpool’s annual Zombie Walk, organised by Scary Evil Events , will take place on Sunday, October 22.

All proceeds raised from the walk will go to neurological charity, The Brain Charity.

The event starts at 11am at Ghoulies Haunted House on Dale Street, where members of the public will be transformed into the undead by a group of professional makeup artists.

Last entry to become a zombie is at 1:30pm but those who would wish to take part can also attend in their own makeup and fancy dress.

The event is open to all people and is suitable for children to take part too.

After the walk, there will be a beauty pageant for the best looking zombie and a brain eating competition with prizes for the winners.

Chief Executive Officer at The Brain Charity, Nanette Mellor, said: “This is a bit of fun for the family and promises to be a great day out.

“I certainly cannot wait to see Liverpool city centre overrun with zombies.

“We are so thankful for everyone that comes to take part. Money raised by this event will go towards helping people across Merseyside who are often struggling to cope.

“At The Brain Charity, we pride ourselves in helping absolutely everyone that comes through our doors, providing them with access to emotional support, practical help and social activities.”

Tickets for the event cost £10 for those wanting the full ‘makeunder’ experience or £5 for others that want to take part in the walk and arrive already undead.

Under 10s can participate in the walk for free.

The Brain Charity , previously Neurosupport, has helped hundreds of people living with a neurological condition since 1993.

The charity is the only national organisation in the UK which offers support across the spectrum of conditions such as attention deficit disorder, dementia and stroke, rather than just focusing on one condition.
