A few years ago when I lived in Edinburgh,
Billy and I were heading up to the Royal Mile to meet some of his co-workers.
The Royal Mile is the mega touristy spot usually filled buskers, street
performers and well, tourists as it is the main road leading to Edinburgh
Castle.
But in the middle of the week in October it
was totally dead. I mean it was empty at first and then it quickly filled with
the dead. Billy and I had unknowingly came upon a Zombie Walk.
It was crazy seeing the Royal Mile with
some of the Scotland’s oldest architecture fill with the undead as bus drivers
where waylaid by fairly convincing zombies. I luckily had my camera as we were
going to see the Beltane Fire Festival, which also took place on the Royal Mile
and is a Gaelic festival that has fire breathers and crazy puppeteering by
dred-locked guys.
When the zombies attacked I got in front of
a zombie nun trying to frame the cathedral into the shot and then the zombie
got really close and actually freaked me out!
