If you heard a bunch of moaning and groaning — not to mention some rattling chains and blaring sirens — coming through downtown Phoenix over the weekend, it’s only because a mass invasion of the undead transpired via the annual Zombie Walk. Meanwhile, people were shaking their costumed culos to EDM over in Scottsdale and Tempe at any number of swanky masquerades and bar parties or just hamming it up along the sidewalks of Mill Avenue and Old Town.

We captured a sampling of the activity of both the Zombie Walk and some of the bigger Halloween shindigs this past weekend, which are helpfully presented in animated GIF form for your viewing pleasure.

Lighting Up the Dance Floor
This particular cat at the Valley Ho‘s Haunted Hotel Ball was like a one-man rave, complete with light show.

Remember to walk your zombies daily, folks.
Bouncing Buckaroo
Despite his western wear and lack of country music, this Haunted Hotel Ball cowboy was busting out his own sort of two-step.

Miley on Mill Avenue
The Tempe version of the infamous VMA debacle turned out to be probably the only chance to see Robin Thicke (faux or otherwise) around town this past weekend.
