Thousands of Mexicans took to the streets of Mexico City in their best zombie and monster costumes on Saturday to take part in the city's 15th annual 'Zombie Walk'.

Footage shows participants marching in their scary undead costumes and terrifying masks. Many can be seen getting into character and performing in their intricately-designed costumes.

"It's very exciting to see people, to meet them. Many of them put a lot of effort into their makeup, many of them obviously invested [money into this]. I don't know how they can walk with so much stuff on them. That's what really draws my attention," said one participant, Lidia Muedano Jimenez.

"Everyone dresses up and it is very nice and well, I feel happy to walk around in costume and walk around here. It's a very beautiful thing," added Brenda, a visual artist attending the parade.

Every year, thousands of participants gather, dressed in elaborate costumes and makeup to resemble the undead, and parade through the city's historic streets.

The march aims to collect food donations for those in need - merging a spectacle of horror and fun for a memorable experience and a good cause.

The 'Zombie Walk' precedes Mexico's 'Day of the Dead', where individuals remember and honour friends and family members who have passed away.
