The evil incarnations of [[Zarok]]'s dark magic, '''Zombies''' will stop at nothing to get their next meal, and unfortunately for [[Dan]], he is in the middle of the crowd.

These enemies are the easiest to defeat in the game, it doesn't take much to defeat them, the [[Small Sword]] and the [[Wooden Sword]] are both more than capable of taking these shamblers down in a couple of swipes. A lit torch or club can also burn them.

These guys were fashionably undead before it was fashionable to be undead. Your brain may have long since rotted, but that won't stop them from eating it.

===''MediEvil'' (1998 original)===
Just a few chops should do them in. Be careful not to miss! That would be embarrassing.
Zombies are one of the three enemies that don't disappear when killed; the other two are Headless Zombies and [[Wolves]].
==Description==
====[[MediEvil: The Official Strategy Guide|Official Strategy guide]] entry====
===''MediEvil''===
The only enemy you'll face in the Graveyard is the slow-witted zombie. These lumbering goons come in a variety of colours, but all act just about the same. They stumble about aimlessly until they pick up your scent and will even fall flat on their faces from time to time. A few well-placed swipes from your [[Small Sword (MediEvil)|Small Sword]] will send them back to the grave.{{Bookref|MED-Guide}}

===''MediEvil 2''===
====[[MediEvil II: Prima's Official Strategy Guide|Official Strategy guide]] entry====
Zombies are found throughout the world of ''MediEvil II'' and are more of a nuisance than a threat. This doesn't mean you can let your guard down around them, however, as they are surprisingly fast. With each slash of your sword, you will slowly dismember them. Watch out! Even without limbs, they still try to butt heads with you.{{Bookref|MED2-Prima}}

====An Adventurer's Guide to Monsters entry====
Your common or garden zombie is (to be blunt) a slow witted goon head of monumental proportions. It seems a shame to hurt such feeble minded weapon fodder, but they will likely insist on trying to bar one's progress and eat one's brains. A few well placed sword swipes are the order of the day, which should effectively teach them to mind their own business.

==Behind the scenes==
===Development===
====''MediEvil (1998 original)''====
In the ''MediEvil'' trailer featured on the ''PlayStation Plus Video Preview '97'' VHS, zombies can be seen in the [[Pumpkin Gorge]] level. They cannot be found in this level in the final release.
====''MediEvil 2''====
Early versions of zombies seen in some pre-release screenshots resemble their concept art more closely than their final counterparts.
===In other media===
====2012 – ''[[wikipedia:PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale|PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale]]''====
Zombies make an appearance in [[The Graveyard (PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale)|The Graveyard]] stage of ''PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale''. Caskets constantly rise from the background and produce zombies. If a casket is blown up by the angel statue in the graveyard before the zombies are released, then the casket will drop AP.
