Zombies thrill onlookers & fill Red Cross coffers

At least 80 “Zombies” turned out on Ajijic’s plaza October 27 to help set a world record for the number of folks showing up in their grave finery to dance to Michael Jackson’s “Thriller.”

The idea to make the dance into an international event started in Canada when a group of 62 Zombies set a Guinness World Record in that one location in 2006. It was a fund-raiser that benefited the Red Cross.

That record was broken the very next year when 1,722 people from 52 cities in Croatia, Honduras, New Zealand, the Philippines and Sierra Leone all danced at the same time.
