Felicia Felix-Mentor

Фолклор и митовиНемртви1900 до 1967

Felicia Felix-Mentor is the subject of one of the first investigated reports of a living zombi. The writer and anthropologist Zora Neale Hurston met a woman in Haiti in 1937 who was said to have been dead for three decades. Medical examination indicated she was not the dead woman, and the case is now usually read as mistaken identity involving a vulnerable stranger. It marks the point where the zombi moved from travellers' tales into ethnography and medicine.1 2

The family said their relative had died and been buried in 1907, aged 291 2

The woman appeared in a village thirty years later and was claimed as the dead Felicia1 2

A doctor's X-rays showed she lacked the leg fracture Felix-Mentor was known to have had1 2

Hurston looked for the drug rumoured to be used on such victims but found few people willing to talk1 2

The psychiatrist Roland Littlewood later argued that such cases are mentally ill or homeless strangers adopted by bereaved families1 2
