Zombies "A Scream" in Boston

The BrocktonPost
BROCKTON—When Brockton resident Pat Gorman stepped out of South Station in Boston Tuesday morning, the last thing she expected was to see a man walking off a bus bleeding from a gory wound in his head.
At first, Gorman said, she worried the man needed medical help, but as she walked closer and the man opened his mouth, let out a long groan and waved his arms around, and others just like him filled the streets, she realized something else was going on.
“He started to howl and groan and other people got off the bus and they were covered in blood--I figured out it was a zombie thing,” Gorman said.
Once she knew people were not really hurt, she thought it was a howl—literally.
“It was a scream,” said Gorman, a member of Brockton Garden Club and other community groups.
Gorman, a regular commuter from Montello Station to South Station arrived at about 8:45 a.m. Tuesday morning to walk among the “walking dead,” or hundreds of actors and actresses taking part in a world-wide public relations stunt for a new TV series—not surprisingly called “The Walking Dead” from AMC and Fox International that premieres Sunday night.
The mob of zombies howled, shrieked, and left faux bloody tracks as they made their way from South Station to Boston’s Public Gardens and the State House.
The zombie invasion was held in 25 cities worldwide, including London, England, Hong Kong, China, Bogata, Columbia and Madrid, Spain.
