Zombie women make a meal of severed hands during Tel Aviv's "Zombie Walk" on March 6, 2012. Purim is a religious celebration of a foiled plot by the Persian empire to exterminate the Jews, as recounted in the Book of Esther. Its spiritual component is accompanied by costume parties and a festive atmosphere.
