00:00 We're Zeg Walkers, we're a very friendly zombie team. We're here at Magnar Horrorcon UK today
00:08 to go around scaring people, raising money for the Children's Hospital charity in Sheffield.
00:20 My name's Tony. We collect for children because when my daughter was young she would die as
00:29 diagnosed with diabetes and Children's Hospital did a lot for us. The staff were really friendly,
00:35 they couldn't do enough for us. I made my daughter at ease because she was quite scared
00:41 of needles and stuff so they made her feel at ease. About 12 years ago we did a film,
00:46 we were extras in a zombie film so we just performed, we got a group together, we met
00:53 a lot of people who were extras and we just formed a group and started doing stuff for
00:59 the charity. We do scary characters, we like to do anything from horror films to zombies
01:08 to even Harry Potter. So we have fun and people love us. We're doing another charity one later
01:18 on this year. We do weddings, we get hired for birthday parties, anything really. A lot
01:27 of Comic Cons, we've been down to London, we took the tins down there with us, we were
01:31 at the Walking Dead convention, Nottingham, Birmingham, we've been all over. If anybody
01:39 can, you know, wants to raise money they should. Can't get much stranger than us. Walk, run,
01:48 just be there helping, raise any kind of money you can because they do a tremendous job.
01:54 Absolutely wonderful people. What they did for my daughter, they were just absolutely
01:59 tremendous.
