For most of my life I have been terrorized by nightmares about zombies, yet in my waking hours I know of all the anomalies I discuss here, this is most certainly the least likely scenario that any of us are apt to face.
So why the nightmares about zombies? I don’t particularly like zombie movies, (probably the result of years of horrible zombie nightmares) and don’t watch them very often, and usually when I do have a nightmare like this, I haven’t even watched one of those movies in ages.
I don’t really have an answer for this, but it often gets me wondering “What If”
The only way a zombie epidemic could even remotely be conceivable as a possibility, is through some type of virus that affects the brain function, such as in the film 28 Days Later.
If you stop and think about it, the “What If” may not seem so outlandish when you consider the many new strains of viruses that are constantly terrorizing the human population, such as the Bird Flu. In addition to this, there is always biological warfare; do we really know what types of biological weapons the governments of the world are developing? What if there was an accident of some sort?
If you let your imagination wander, the idea can become very scary. Ghosts, Demons, Aliens, I am not sure any of these are quite as chilling as the idea of zombies roaming the earth, waiting to devour the living.
So the what if question again; what if it were to happen? What would you do, and how would you survive?
Here is some highly recommended reading materials to help you answer these questions.
The Zombie Survival Guide: Complete Protection from the Living Dead by Max Brooks
This book can help you stay alive if the unthinkable should ever happen.
Another interesting book from the best selling Zombie expert, Max Brooks is The Zombie Survival Guide: Recorded Attacks.
If nothing else, the books could give you a sense of security, and if you also suffer from nightmares, maybe they will no longer bother you.
