How Zombie Wiki works
Every fact has a source
Each file was researched from the sagas, chronicles, scholarship, the films and games themselves and their official material. The sources are listed on every page.
Nothing made up
If the sources do not say how fast something moves, we do not guess. Empty beats invented.
No ads. No trackers.
No banners, no cookies, no analytics. Fonts and pictures come from our own server.
Original art
The pictures are original AI-made illustrations from the descriptions, never film stills or official designs.
Feed the horde
Zombie Wiki is one person's project, paid for out of his own pocket. No ads, no cookies, no trackers, ever. Servers, pictures and translations still cost money. If this place saved you an evening of searching, throw the horde a brain.
