 +====== Zombie ======
 +Zombies are a folkloric/pop-culture undead monster. For whatever reason, the zombie is a very popular monster and, consequently, is also quite unpopular.
  
 +Though, at this point, I'd guess that the image of the zombie is so genericized that it can apply to a lot more than just the original idea.
 +{{tag>mythology}}
 +===== Description & Notes =====
 +==== Origin ====
 +The origin of the zombie is actually quite interesting, as it's an example of brainwashing/slave labor. Maybe the CIA should have taken inspiration here instead of...whatever they did in MKULTRA.
 +
 +Basically, some voodoo witch doctors in the Caribbean figured out how to essentially enslave people with the use of a puffer-fish. There's some more to it, but I'd need to check my source again.
 +===== Relations =====
 +==== Vampires ====
 +[[lb:vampires]] and zombies have a lot of similarities, to the point I'm comfortable with saying that vampires are the not-lame version of the zombie (or, alternatively, the zombie is the lame version of the vampire).
 +===== Trivilinks =====
 +  * I don't know what to put here.
