Lady-zombie. Business-tie guy zombie. Linebacker zombie.

Saturday there were a lot of zombies shambling along Midway Boulevard in Oak Harbor.

It was all part of the annual Monster Mash and Zombie Crawl.

The free event allowed anyone to get gussied and gored up at the Whidbey Playhouse before ambling toward Traders Village for a party.

“I love anything zombie,” explained Wolly Fowkes, 14, who is no stranger to zombies or acting. He’s a theater kid and a zombie aficionado.

Fowkes’ advice for a great zombie walk? Let your zombie injury be your guide on which body part to drag or flop.

Makeup artists applied fake blood and oatmeal to give victims that living dead look.

An assortment of torn and tattered clothing completed the zombification.

After the transformation, zombies waited in the holding pen across the street, at the Oak Bowl, for games and pizza.

And then, at 5 p.m. sharp, the zombie flock herky-jerked through town.

At Traders Village — the log building — zombies found music, food that wasn’t people and other entertainment.

A haunted Oak Harbor Schools yellow bus was parked nearby with piles of student bones in seats and a skeleton driver who looked like he’d dealt with one naughty kid too many.

Black-hooded Death helped small children off the bus with one hand and held his scythe in another.

Of course, the party went on until the dead of night.
