Redlands to get reprise of Zombie beauty pageant – San Bernardino County Sun

REDLANDS – A.J. Herrera may have stumbled onto something. Redlands may indeed be a zombie kind of town.

Herrera, who runs comic book publishing company Forbidden Panel, is preparing to host its second annual Zombie Beauty Pageant.

“Last year was just fantastic,” Herrera said. “I thought to myself `Redlands sure is a zombie town.”‘

The Zombie Beauty Pageant will again be held at the Fox Event Center. It is scheduled for Oct. 28. Contestants will be asked to meet with pageant organizers on Oct. 3.

“Last year I looked into the crowd and everyone was smiling and having a good time,” Herrera said. “Everyone had their cell phones. The response was so phenomenal. We hope to repeat that excitement.”

Herrera said there was about a crowd of 200 at last year’s pageant. He hopes to top that number this year.

“What we would like to see is a bigger crowd than last year,” Herrera said. “And more contestants.”

Still, last year’s event surpassed expectations.

“I was absolutely surprised,” Herrera said. “I understand not a lot of people are into this. When I did it, I expected a couple people and to have some fun. The reaction was such a total surprise. I was floating around for a few days.”

So far there are eight confirmed pageant contestants, including the six who competed in last year’s event. That group includes last year’s winner Brianna Maynard.

Herrera said there are tentative plans to include a junior division in the pageant for younger children.
