370.19:  "She called after him, but he wouldn't turn, only went on at the same laden crawl, answering but denying her his face, 'Take care, Young Gaffer.  Take care of your dead, or they'll take care of you."


"A zombie is a dead person that is brought back to life through means of Vodoun or necromancy, destroying the mental processes of this person through the process. Most people consider zombies only to be the stuff of horror books and movies, but they do exist in Haiti in the present day. Thousands of people in Haiti are considered to be zombies, some of which lead normal everyday lives with families, jobs and are respected citizens. It¹s even considered to be a crime to make a zombie in Haiti."
