Awesome pictures! Nice to see you got quite the crowd. I’ve put a link on my blog so people can come see your photos.

I was fortunate enough to be in Manchester yesterday and catch this spectacle – it certainly was an amazing site and you’ve got some great pictures there. The Printworks was absolutely packed with zombies!

I found this on a google search for “Manchester Zombie Walk” – excellent pictures! I didn’t see the zombie postman or zombie shopper!

@The Zed Word
It was a really fun time and the pictures really don’t do the crowd justice, thanks for the link!

@Mac Thomas
Know what you mean about the Printworks, it was wall to wall in there! At one point the registration queue was all the way to the top entrance, but alas no record

@Melanie
Yeah somehow I seem to be ranking ok on google for this particular post! During the walk I was straggling quite near the back, glad I did though else I would’ve missed these characters! Just had a look at your pics on Flickr, you got some great ones!

@Bex
That’s awesome! your dad’s makeup was amazing, and the way he kept trying to deliver that bloody letter was classic, I can email over the pic if you like?

@James
The walk was on the North West Tonight news, not sure if you saw it (or if you’re even in the North West region). Found you on Google this morning as well so you must of got picked up by them pretty quickly.

@Melanie
Had a look at your pics as well – some great ones there.

I only just now heard about this. I’m pretty disappointed. I’ve been to a couple of these in Calgary and loved photographing the characters there.

@ Mac Thomas
I actually live over in Bradford, but just watched the report again online, awesome! Can’t believe you guys get the Krypton Factor dude presenting your news, that’s amazing

@Darby Sawchuk
Don’t worry! they’re trying for the record again in October so keep an eye on their official site for details http://www.zombie-aid.com

@Dave K
Aw no way, I saw you outside the Printworks as we were all heading back in! I didn’t get a picture though i’m afraid but i’m sure someone else has! Hats off to the police that day, everything ran so smoothly!

Hey James! A little unfortunate thing happened when you sent the pic, I don’t know if you got my email about it so i’ll post here just in case you didn’t. Anyway, the picture said it ‘wasen’t properly decoded.’ Perhaps you know what that means? But thanks for posting all of these great pics, you did a great job
