Essen (dpa / lnw) – Large crowds at the “Zombie Walk” in Essen: Halloween fans crowded into the Ruhr area city on Monday evening. On the eve of All Saints’ Day, a colorful Halloween parade paraded through the city center of the Ruhr metropolis. The organizer had expected around 2,000 participants in the run-up to what he said was “Germany’s largest Halloween parade”.

When it got dark, the Halloween parade on Kettwiger Straße started its procession through the city to Kardinal-Hengsbach-Platz. The most beautiful costume of the parade should be awarded on a stage.
