A zombie is typically portrayed as a brainless corpse that consumes human flesh, or simply as dead people or dead bodies that can move.

Because they only consume living humans and not other zombies, zombies are not regarded as cannibals. In the 1600s, the first zombie tales appeared in print.

When people were in comas in the past, doctors would mistake it for death and bury them alive. The deceased occasionally seemed to resuscitate when robbers dug up their tombs to steal jewellery. This helped to spread the zombie legend. It appears that the zombie myth has even spread to the Caribbean. Zombie voodoo is mentioned, and some Haitians think that voodoo sorcerers, or "bokor," may raise the dead and turn them into zombies. Typically, zombies are shown as strong, robotic beings with rotting flesh whose only goal is to consume living things. They often don't talk, however some might grunt. The zombie virus can be spread through biting because it is usually spread through the interchange of bodily fluids; however, it can also spread through the air. Halloween is a time when zombie costumes are particularly popular. "Zombophiles" are those who enjoy zombies. Zombies have appeared in a number of literature and movies since the earliest zombie tales were published in the 1600s. They've become more well-known because to media projects like AMC's "The Walking Dead" and Capcom's "Resident Evil" franchise. Zombies are virtually always moving in zombie movies. Although they can move, they are technically dead because they have no heartbeat or other signs of life.As special effects technology improved with each new picture, zombies became more gruesome and realistic. Since the 1980s, dozens of zombie movies have been produced.

Scooby-Doo fought zombies in the 1998 movie "Scooby-Doo On Zombie Island." Brad Pitt's zombie movie "World War Z," which was released in 2013, brought the genre to horrifying new heights. The zombie genre has, of course, benefited greatly from the internet, particularly thanks to the proliferation of zombie-themed internet comics like "Zombie Hunters," "Last Blood," "Daily Decay," and "Slaughter, Inc."

Theme has recently been refreshed by movies like "Train to Busan" and "Para Norman."

The Bible doesn't specifically describe zombies or the idea of dead people coming back to life and continuing to rot. Nonetheless, just like many other verses and prophecies in the Bible, plagues are mentioned. The Hebrew term for plague, "maggephah," translates to "pestilence" or "sickness." It's not impossible for a human zombie epidemic to occur. Because people are susceptible to neurotoxins, behavioural viruses like Mad Cow Disease, and brain parasites, some specialists think that a zombie apocalypse is not implausible. Australia is placed first among safe countries in the case of a zombie epidemic, followed by Canada, the United States, Russia, and Kazakhstan, despite the fact that there is no evidence of genuine zombies. Based on these countries' topography, terrain, and climate,
