In Collaboration With: Zombie Walk – Omaha
Join us for a night of spine-chilling fun as we celebrate the epic return of Benson’s Zombie Walk with the ultimate classic horror film screening of 1968’s “Night of the Living Dead.” As the sun sets and darkness envelops Benson, we invite you to continue the festivities at our after-party. Zombies and hunters welcome.
Doors Open: 8:00 PM
Start Time: 9:00 PM
Ticket Price: $5, general admission
Who Can Attend? Everyone is welcome to the screening. Common sense media suggest Night of the Living Dead is best suited to children 17 and older, siting parents should know this classic, low-budget horror movie may not be as violent at it’s more modern sequels, but there are still plenty of violent moments. Attendees may be carded.
About Our Collaborators: Zombie Walk – Omaha is a returning Halloween tradition and a night for the undead to officially take over the city. The free Zombie Walk is a truly unique event, beginning in downtown Benson in the late afternoon and wrapping around the Benson neighborhood as night begins to fall. This is a family friendly walk, with zombies of all ages participating. Though most will be dressed in the ripped clothing, fake blood, and open sores of the typical zombie (inexpensive makeup stations available – one located at Benson Theatre!), there are also designated ‘victims’ who offer up their services in street clthing for the zombies to feast on. And keep an eye out for zombie hunters!
