Zombie

This work features zombies, fictional creatures, typically depicted as mindless, reanimated corpses with a hunger for human flesh, regularly encountered in horror and fantasy themed works. Zombies have a complex literary heritage, with antecedents ranging from Richard Matheson and H. P. Lovecraft to Mary Shelley's Frankenstein drawing on European folklore of the undead. The "zombie apocalypse" concept, in which the civilized world is brought low by a global zombie infestation, has become a staple of modern popular art.
