Tune in on this spook-tastic Monday as we bring you an extra Halloween special episode. Sofie talks to us about her greatest fear on her favorite holiday: Zombies! When you think of zombies do you think bath salts or “The walking dead“? We talk about the history of zombies and where it all started, including the French coming home with glory, gold, and syphilis..? Wait what? The streets of Italy and France were once plagued by living, breathing people falling apart with exposed muscle and bone-similar to our modern pop culture zombies we picture today. We also take a deep dive into the Haitian language and religion and how it contributed and developed the modern day zombie to be what it is today, as well as the fear it instilled in the Europeans occupying their island.
