As designated by those devoted folks over at the Zombie Research Society, May is Zombie Awareness Month. (Why May? you might be wondering. Because that is the month in which the classic Romero film Night of the Living Dead is set.) Accordingly, these thirty-one days throughout the world are filled with undead-centric endeavors, from theme parties and zombie walks/runs to zombie food drives (which, for me, conjures the image of innocent humans being herded into ghouls' clutches) and other charity events. Fun and games carried out in the interest, as the ZRS would have it, of raising consciousness of the potentially imminent epidemic ("Because what you don't know can eat you," the Society's slogan forewarns).
Throughout the month here at Macabre Republic, I will be publishing zombie-themed posts; keep your eye out for undeadened versions of many of the blog's familiar Features. The grave festivities will start tomorrow, but in the meantime here's a compendium of the zombie outbreaks in the M.R. over the past nineteen months:
