MIDLAND - Halloween is tonight and Midland College is so excited about it. Bring your costume and check out the Halloween event at the college.

We are going to eat you: The zombie in history, film and popular culture.

The Midland College Fasken Learning Resource Center invites tghe pulic to spend Halloween learning about the mystique of the zombie, which has a long history in popular culture.

Zombies were initially a bottom-of-the-barrel monster that few took seriously. However, the zombie is now one of the most firmly ingrained monsters in popular imagination.

This is due, in large part, to movies like Night of the Living Dead and television shows like The Walking Dead. Zombies can be found in all types of media, from video games, to fiction, sequential art and even children’s literature.

Texas Tech University Humanitiies Librarian Rob Weiner will be the guest presenter during this special Halloween evening at Midland College.

This event will be Oct. 31 at 6 pm in the Fasken Learning Resource Center on the Midland College Campus, 3600 N. Garfield, Midland TX 79705.
