My Mom told me, when I was little, that the movie "Night of the Living Dead" was true and that it really happened well before I was thought of in this world. Well, for years, I went over the scenario, in my head, trying to figure out how I would get away should it happen again and I was always so frightened because the zombies could break through windows and things and the people never really seemed to be able to hide anywhere.
