A group of women costumed as “zombies” were spotted dancing in Connecticut, US, ahead of Halloween. A video of the flash mob dance was posted on the Good News Movement Instagram page, featuring ladies dressed like zombies dancing to Michael Jackson’s hit song “Thriller” in a rhythmic manner. It turns out that the enjoyment is for more than just Halloween. The group of ladies, who are all moms and refer to themselves as “Mombies,” dances annually to raise money for breast cancer research. This is what they have been doing since 2016.
The caption for the video read, ”MOMBIES! Hundreds of Connecticut “mombies” put on a zombie-themed performance each year to benefit cancer research.
Terry Davis is the creator and founder of the ‘Mombies’. They donate all of the money they generate to The Cancer Couch Foundation in order to support research on metastatic breast cancer. The MOMbies have raised almost $170,000 since launching this project in 2016.
