Zombies appear in front of us, regularly, in our TV sets of course, and we are amazed of their power and scared of their look. Imagine what would you do if one of them appears in front of your eyes while you are coming back at home at night? It’s creepy, isn’t it? But better think of it because zombies can be real. We will give you some real examples.
In real life, the zombies come from the Caribbean island of Haiti. They are a person who has been almost-killed, and then later rose from the almost-dead by a voodoo priest, to be used as slave labor for the rest of their miserable life. Zombies can move, eat, hear and speak, but they have no memory and no insight into their condition. There have been legends about zombies for centuries, but it was only in 1980 that a real-life case was documented.
The story begins in 1962, in Haiti. A man called Clairvius Narcisse was sold to a zombie master by his brothers, because Clairvius refused to sell his share of the family land. Soon after Clairvius "officially" died, and was buried. However, he had been later secretly unburied, and was actually working as a zombie slave on a sugar plantation with many other zombies. In 1964, his zombie master died, and he wandered across the island in a psychotic daze for the next 16 years. The drugs that made him psychotic were gradually wearing off. In 1980, he accidentally stumbled across his long-lost sister in a market place, and recognized her. She didn't recognize him, but he identified himself to her by telling her early childhood experiences that only he could possibly know.
Dr. Wade Davis, an ethno biologist from Harvard, went to Haiti to research this story. He discovered how to make a zombie. First, make them "dead", and then make them "mad" so that their minds are malleable. Often, a local "witch doctor" secretly gives them the drugs. Wade Davis found that a chemical called tetrodoxin, which is obtained from the puffer fish, was effective in causing nerve paralysis. Another chemical crucial to the creation of a real life zombie is a fluid secreted by a toad native to Haiti called the bufo marinus. A cocktail of other chemicals including datura stramonium were used to aid the paralysis and mind control process that lead to the creation of the zombie. Voodoo sorcerers would administer the drug cocktail to their intended victims and enslave the affected individuals after the revival process.
So beware when you are asking help of a priest or witch doctor, before you do that ask for their qualifications and don’t drink everything they give you, because one of these cocktails can make you a scary creature, a real zombie. We are going to think a little bit more, next time when we are going somewhere late at night, zombies do exist.
Instead of being scared of them just try playing our zombies games and you will reveal real tactics how to escape of them or even how to win a battle against them.
