Zombies are coming to get you, Edmonton!

dEdmonton — Tue, 04 Oct 2011 04:16:56 +0000

In 2006 a strange site was seen upon the streets of our city as Whyte Ave encountered the precursor to the Zombie Apocalypse - sure, there were only a few dozen that first April, but that number has steadily grown. Last October there were over 400 zombies roaming the streets!

This year prepare for Whyte to be infected once again! Friday night, October 7th, the River City Zombie Committee once again leads the undead down Whyte, across the High Level bridge, to the Alberta Legislature grounds, and eventually to Churchill Square.

Do you have the guts to check out their Facebook event page and become undead?

As an added bonus, on Saturday night you can also get zombified for the First Annual Zombie Prom and BBQ

The Haunted Hike is alive and well. And Scary!

dEdmonton — Wed, 28 Sep 2011 01:03:14 +0000

This just in: The haunted Hike is back for another season of scares and cares - and they need your help!

In October 2010 The Haunted Hike in Sherwood Park, Alberta was a victim of their own success. Located near a residential area the thousands of visitors caused traffic jams and other congestion problems when they ran and were unable to remain open for the last weekend of October. Despite that, they managed to raise $30,140 to support the Stollery Children’s Hospital, a world-class children’s facility.

Something had to be done, and on September 27, 2011, the Strathcona County Councillors approved the running of a Park and Ride program to bus visitors onto the site, thereby relieving the congestion during the event. We want to thank all of you who contacted your council and lent their support to making this decision.

Now we call upon all your dEdmontonians to help make Halloween in Sherwood Park exceed last year!

The organizers of The Haunted Hike are looking for some volunteers to help at the Park and Ride facility! The event runs Friday and Saturday nights from October 14th through the 29th. There are 4 hour shifts available, and you don’t have to commit to all nights - on the condition that you tell your friends to volunteer or attend!

Please contact thehauntedhike at gmail.com or info at dedmonton.com for more details.

We hope to see you scare! Er, see you there I mean…

It’s that Halloween season again

dEdmonton — Sun, 18 Sep 2011 22:26:07 +0000

Are you ready? It’s almost Halloween season again!

Several Halloween Stores have opened in town, along with the few that remain open all year, and dEdmontonians are getting into the spirit of things.

We still have some undertaking to do but we are getting things rolling once again with dEdmonton’s Most Haunted. Do you decorate your abode in it’s Halloween finest? Then let us know and we can put you up on our map. We’ll even dispatch our minions to place a lawn sign letting the world know that you’re one of our featured haunts!

While we all wait for The Walking Dead to start (on October 16th!) you can get your own zombie on October 7th at a zombie walk with the theme of Zombie’s in Space (visit their Facebook event page: THE RCZC 5TH ANNIVERSARY ZOMBIE WALK: ZOMBIES IN SPACE ) and the next night is their First Annual Zombie Prom and BBQ and The Pawn Shop.

The Edmonton Bone Wagon Association is appearing all over the place too - recently seen at store openings of Spirit Halloween and Custom Costumes, but also in parades, car shows, and at the Smoky Lake Great White North Pumpkin Festival and Weigh-off October 1st and the Prairie Gardens Haunted Pumpkin Festival.

Remember to keep an eye on our Halloween Events Calendar for all the upcoming events, and stay tuned to dEdmonton.TV to hear more details and recaps about some of these events.
