Same dead walk...Brand new bite.

Let’s. Get. Spooky!

Calling all zombies, ghouls, and the undead! Saturday, October 24th, marks the return of the 16th annual Bangor Zombie Walk, from 2pm-3pm!

Come join the party and celebrate the Halloween season with prizes for Best Couple, Most Creative, and Best Kids.

The Bangor Zombie Walk started in 2010 and will now be celebrating its 16th year.

This is a fun, family-friendly event where costumes, makeup, and the Halloween spirit make for a great day in Bangor.

The thrills go from 2pm-3pm at the corner of Railroad & Front Streets on the Bangor Waterfront. Then the walk begins at 2:30pm sharp!

This year, they are adding some really cool interactive elements for supporters and attendees to have fun for the entire month of October. This includes bringing back the scavenger hunt in a more unique way, with hidden prizes scattered throughout Bangor with online video diaries that serve as clues. Some of these are live action, some are animated, but they are all 100% zombie-related fun.

Stephen King's Bangor

Thousands of King fans visit Bangor every year, and it seems all of them go to his house on West Broadway. (Yes, that's on the list.) But the city features many landmarks that appear in some shape or form in one or more of King's stories.
