    Well? There are those who believe that "undead" humanoids have and do walk the Earth. There is a possibility that they are real, but the evidence presented towards there existance is less than sufficient to fully prove that they exist. So what are your thoughts? I myself don't think they are real.

    I voted possibly because I don't really have an opinion. People can believe what they want. I could believe I AM GUNDAM! ( just for the record, I don't ).

    I know a few myself, not very talkative though, but completely jawdropping.

    Zombies are real. They are real in books, movies, TV Shows and in people's imaginations.

    A matter of definitions

    It really does depend on definitions. "Undead"? No.

    But zombies? They are very real:

    One of my first complete sentences in Creole was “Gen vréman vre zonbi an Ayiti?” Or: “Are there really, truly zombies in Haiti?”

    Bien sûr,” Delzor said. He had even seen them: affectless men and women with a deathlike pallor, high nasal voices, and the characteristic drooping at the chin — men and women who he knew for a fact had died and been buried.

    Ayiti, se repiblik zonbi,” Delzor added. Haiti is the republic of zombies.

    I was eager to meet a zombie for myself, and began making appropriate inquiries. Several weeks later, my wife came home from a judicial conference. Making small talk, a local judicial official mentioned the strange case of zombification that his courtroom had seen not several months before. The case was, he said, “un peu spectaculaire.”

    It is a gripping and tragic story, and one fit for the screen, at that.

    Zombies are real. At least they were. I don't know how much of that portion of Haitian culture is still around. The zombies were not flesh eating once completely dead humans. But they were socially killed people who'd been shunned and poisoned - but not to death - and many die because they are cut off from their communities. Die because they feel damned, with no reason to live.

    Sounds like a potentially handy social policy.
    I wonder what the election criteria were...

    Yeah.

    They can be found at Lidl or, in other countries, Walmart. The females tend to be somewhat fat and wear manky sports gear and have short spiky ponytails that don't look good with their fat face. The males like to hack their hair uber short and act tough.

    They're called PEOPLE.
