Just so we are familiar on what a zombie is, they are the living dead. Now in popular culture, zombies look and behave differently depending on how they are depicted. Zombies is a common story and folklore in Haitian culture. Basically in voodoo culture, zombies are created by a
bokur, or sorcerer, after a human dies. And unlike popular belief, zombies in voodooism don't feast on brains, but they are slaves and do whatever their master tell them to do. These mindless zombies are not dangerous until you feed it salt, then their senses are restored. Now interesting enough, research shows that there are a lot of stories and rumors, there is little evidence to prove the phenomenon or explain it...but they still can't disprove that Voodoo zombies don't exists.
