The Zombie Pub Crawl took over downtown Minneapolis on Saturday night, with thousands of partiers dressed for the occasion coming to eat, listen to music and dance. Several blocks were closed off for the event.

Food trucks got in the spirit, and there was a limited amount of Brain Belt (courtesy of Grain Belt) on hand.

Last year's pub crawl broke a Guinness record for the most zombies in one place, and this year had plenty on the scene.
