ZOMBIE RULES

TRANSMISSION
Bite or scratch.

SYMPTOMS IN ORDER OF ONSET
1. Hemorrhagic flu-like leaching of fluids from all orifices.
2. Vomiting black fluid.
3. Desire to eat humans, especially nerve (brain) tissue. This desire creates the transmission vector.
4. Death of physical body, leading to blackened blood and rapid bodily decay, like leprosy on fast-forward.
5. Complete decomposition of physical body, leaving the soul to wander in misery.

ZOMBIE BEHAVIOR IN ORDER OF DISEASE PROGRESSION
1. Disorientation as physical body dies. Like taking too much acid, it’s pleasurable for some and horrifying for others.
2. Normal (for individual) motivating drives and personality stay in place, but overwhelming instinct to gorge can override common sense.
3. Gradual loss of fine motor control as nervous system deteriorates.
4. Gradual loss of pain sensations as nervous system deteriorates.
5. Grandiosity resulting from inability to feel pain and (apparent) invincibility.
6. Summation: the “self” remains in place, but it’s housed in a steadily less cooperative, rapidly decomposing body driven by powerful cannibalistic urges.

KILLING ZOMBIES
The only way to kill a zombie is to destroy or completely remove the head!
