Full Zombie Night Schedule: A Ball, A Prom, A Governor Rocking Out

Silver Spring's annual Zombie Walk will morph into a full night of movies, music and food.

Silver Spring's annual Zombie Walk isn't happening—you can blame sidewalk construction and insurance companies for that. Instead, organizers have curated a full night of undead fun for the neighborhood that includes music, movies, drinks and food. Zombie Night, as the event was renamed, is set for Saturday, Oct. 27. 

According to the website, here's a full list of events:

5:30 p.m.: Wear your zombie costume and get 20 percent off a special Halloween dinner menu at Jackie's Restaurant. Kids are welcome until 9 p.m., when events become age 21 and up.

Around dinnertime: Kids are welcome at Piratz Tavern for the zombie ball, to include t-shirts, gummi brains along with zombie-themed drink specials. The $2 "Brain Shooters," look especially interesting! Reservations are recommended.
