Are zombies real, and where did the concept of a mindless, walking dead person originate? On this two part series we look into the history of the zombie, its ties to Haitian history, and explore the handful of stories of zombification that have been studied. Stories include the account of Clairvious Narcisse and the strange zombie tale of Felicia Felix-Mentor.
Writer/Director, Mali Elfman, of the new film NEXT EXIT, and producer of the film BIRTH/REBIRTH joins the podcast.
