Information for our "Thrilling" 2025 season will be released in late spring.
All Zombies for Thrill the Villages must be a Resident of The Villages and have a resident ID card.
No dance experience is necessary, and you don’t have to be a performer or even a great dancer. Thriller is easy to learn and danced by Zombies that have their own style. We don’t all have to be exactly alike. Anyone can learn it if you are willing to practice.
Practices begin the first week of August and go to mid October. Check the "Practice Schedule" for exact times and locations.
You must attend at least one practice each week. Please attend more that one if available. We think it’s more fun, and you learn tips and tricks when we practice together.
The main performance is Thrill Night, which is always the Saturday before Halloween - Oct 25 for 2025. There may be other opportunities to perform during the month. Those opportunities will be presented in September.
There is a nonimal fee that will be collected prior to practice.
That is half the fun. You can go all out or just dirty up something you find in the back of your closet. Most of our Thriller zombies visit the thrift stores for clothes to “zombie-up” that cost very little. Just be sure that you are able to move freely and safely, and always wear closed toe shoes (for performances as well as for practices).
While we will be sorry to see you go, we completely understand that things come up. Just let us know by emailing thrillthevillages@gmail.com. You are welcome to stay on our Thrill The Villages Facebook page and come back for our next year’s festivities.
