Zombies
do exist. Not the flesh-eating undead ones, but the ones those were derived from. There is nothing supernatural about real zombies.
There are many types of zombies some not in video games and many types have sub types but almost all zombies can be stopped by attacking and damaging the head but blowing up and burning are the main ways people kill them.
Paranormal Zombies:
Demonic Zombies:
Zombies that are the bodies of people that have passed away and have come back in bodied by demonic forces that just kill and are the wildest of the paranormal type zombies they attack in no order Burning and Damaging the heads are the best ways to stop them if you cant find a way to blow them up
Black Magic Zombies:
Those zombies have been controlled by unknown forces like Voodoo or other black magic these can't be contagious they just kill or do as the forces acting upon them have them do they attack in a orderly way best way to kill them or stop them is burning,damage the head,blowing up or kill the source person that has used the magic or acting power on them and they are one of the smartest forms of zombies these dont want to eat people they just want to kill and do their masters bidding
Infect Zombies:
Virus Zombie:
Zombies that are you most common they are either science subject gone wrong and the only way to stop them is to burning,damage the head,blowing up or inject the counter virus(hard and never really used) these infect by biting or blood contact and can spread fast and some signs wont show as fast in some people as they do in others which means that air/boat/train/car travel to other lands can be possible and makes it easy to spread fast world wide
Alien Zombies: (A.K.A Parasitic Zombies in some cases with an alien bug)
Zombies that get infected by germs or bugs that come from space or other would these are brought by space objects that fall into earth Comets/satellites/meteors/types of gamma rays they infect and spread by contact to the human body or in food/water supplies or by animal contact burning,damage the head,blowing up can stop them but wont stop the alien force behind it some of these types are smart so b careful even more so then with other types
Mutation Zombies:
Closest to some forms of lab subjects (Virus Zombie) or types of Alien Zombies (By gamma ray radiation) but they come mostly from weaponry usage such as Bombs and Bio weapons and they turn from people to zombies due to the the weapons aftermath and is mostly Radiation related these can be smart but most times aren't
