Zombie festivals or zombie walks are getting more and more popular. One of these incredible events has been held in Madrid, Spain since 2007, and will take place February 7, 2009. The idea behind the zombie walks is that there is no more room in Hell, and the dead have come back to walk the earth--specifically, through the streets of Madrid.
The Spanish makeup store LKM is organizing the event and is offering Wildcats 'terror eyes' contact lenses, the perfect accessories for the living dead.
