The History of Zombies
Whilst George Romero is the man responsible for creating the modern phenomenon of the flesh eating zombie, there is indeed a history dating back further than the 1968 film. Fox News looks at this history in a little video called The history of zombies: Where did the phenomenon begin?
Zombies aren’t just a ‘Walking Dead’ phenomenon. They date back to the 17th century and are rooted in the institution of slavery. Fox News sat down with Tim Seeley, author of the “Revival” zombie-themed comic book series, to discuss the history of the undead.
