Blogfinger has covered many Zombie Walks in Asbury Park, but not this year. Below is one of my favorite photos from a Zombie event: 2013.
In 1934, an Ocean Liner (SS Morro Castle), was traveling from Havana to New York when it caught fire and beached on the shores of Asbury Park. There were 137 deaths.
A handful of survivors washed up at the Zombie Walk in Asbury Park (October 2013)

MARTHA WAINWRIGHT From the soundtrack of The Aviator:
No they’re mocking it. There is no repect in their looks or actions.
ermcool: I guess those thousands of people who attend Asbury’s Zombie Walk are mocking the dead.
No, you are wrong. This is public theater at its best.
And the best that day was this theater group which re-created a local event in history, and they did it with their costumes and their showmanship. Their show provided happy moments for many, including myself, that day.
It looks like they are mocking the dead.
