Wilkes-Scarre brings the Zombie Bar/Restaurant Crawl to Downtown Wilkes-Barre’s best hotspots on Saturday, October 28.
Wilkes-Scarre will feature a number of hauntingly fun events this spooky season between October 26 to Halloween Day on October 31, including the Downtown Wilkes-Barre “Trot Till You Rot” Zombie Bar Crawl.
WILKES-BARRE — Roam the streets of Downtown Wilkes-Barre hunting for delicious food and drinks this Halloweekend for the Zombie Bar/Restaurant Crawl!
As a part of Wilkes-Scarre Weekend, the Zombie “Trot till You Rot” is back again this spooky season on Saturday, October 28, starting at The Mines Underground at 105 N Main St. Check-in is at 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. with the crawl taking place from 7:00 p.m. to 10:30 p.m.
Zombification is definitely encouraged but if you’re not sure on the makeup, there will also be free zombie face painting at the check-in spot’s “Zombie Factory!”
A photographer will document your zombie attire at the check-in location. The photos will be an excellent memento of the holiday and will be used for the Zombie Costume Contest later at the after-party.
Don’t miss out on this ghastly gathering as the zombie apocalypse dawns on the streets of Wilkes-Barre. Indulge in the some of the best bars and restaurants the town has to offer. Grab your friends, dress up in your most terrifying zombie attire, and prepare for a night of ghoulish fun!
