The idea of zombies comes from Haitian folklore, where “zombi” referred to a corpse reanimated through magical or spiritual means, often tied to Vodou traditions. These beliefs existed long before modern movies or novels.
The Magical Island (1929), a book by William Seabrook, introduced Western audience to Haitian Vodou practices, including the concept of zombie. The movie White Zombie from 1932 is considered the first feature-length zombie film ever made. The zombies in this film were more like hypnotized, enslaved people, not the flesh-eating undead we know today.
That modern concept came with the film Night of the Living Dead from 1968, directed by George A. Romero. It redefined zombies into the creatures we now associate with horror, and Romero’s version became the blueprint for almost every zombie story since.

Been with gamepressure.com since 2019, mostly writing game guides but you can also find me geeking out about LEGO (huge collection, btw). Love RPGs and classic RTSs, also adore quirky indie games. Even with a ton of games, sometimes I just gotta fire up Harvest Moon, Stardew Valley, KOTOR, or Baldur's Gate 2 (Shadows of Amn, the OG, not that Throne of Bhaal stuff). When I'm not gaming, I'm probably painting miniatures or admiring my collection of retro consoles.
