Disappointment has swept through the nation’s zombie enthusiasts as the Beach Of The Dead event for this year has been called off due to health and safety concerns.
This year, Brighton, England will not witness the arrival of walking dead impersonators, as the budget falls short of accommodating the anticipated influx of visitors.
“It simply costs too much and requires too much time. Last year, we exceeded our budget of £2,000 (AU$ 3,400) by a significant margin,” stated event organizer Kate Amer.
“We were taken aback by the immense number of attendees. It was quite unbelievable.”
“We’ve had to rethink our plans because proceeding as is would pose too many safety risks.”
Last year, the event attracted over 6,000 participants in terrifying costumes, and they are sure to be let down by the cancellation of this year’s march.
Fortunately for them, they can still wear their zombie attire on October 26, as a new undead event has been organized in the vicinity.
