Parental discretion is advised at this event. We leave it up to you, the parent, to know if your child would like this type of event. We have had younger children (6-10 years old) love the event, but it is ultimately up to you to decide. But some young children have reported nightmares.
Are there really ghosts in the Old Mill?
It is believed so! We have had a professional paranormal investigation group spend the night in the Old Mill and they believe that there is a presence there!

I don't want to be a Zombie, how can I help?
If you don’t want to be a Zombie, there are still many ways for you to help! You can join a committee, be a runner on event nights or even become a sponsor of Zombies at the Zoo!
What is a sponsorship?
Sponsorships can help us in 3 ways.
1,) Monetary donation or items donation (lumber, props, misc. supplies, etc.)
2.) Volunteer donation (volunteer your time or your companies time to help Zombies)
3.) Skills donation (makeup, construction, etc.)
These 3 sponsorship methods help reduce the zoo’s costs to run Zombies every year, meaning more to help the zoo make it through the winter and better the lives of the animals.
