Description: There are zombies among us! From the rotting hordes of TV's 'The Walking Dead' to the blockbuster nightmare of '28 days later', our popular culture is overrun with the ravenous undead. But where do these strange creatures come from? In this book, artist and writer John Cussans tracks the zombie from Hollywood back to its origins in the voodoo folklore of Haiti.
