Rest in Peace Asbury Park Zombie Walk

The Asbury Park Zombie Walk has broken records and become a recent NJ tradition in recent years. With shows like The Walking Dead making the zombie genre more popular, its infection every October grew larger and larger.

It's no secret here that horror and Halloween have a home here on +The Blogboard Jungle , so when things like this happen it makes us sad. Jason Meehan, the founder of the walk left the following message on Facebook to explain why it has died:
