The Zombie fog of 1976..

 

 

                                                                 Irish Zombies?


Ok, I've seen this one around for a while now, but i have not found any actual news articles related to the event...

So at least for the time being, i'm going to consider this more of an urban legend rather then an actual paranormal event.   if i can eventually find something to prove it otherwise i will update this post.

That being said if any of you have ever seen the movie "The Fog" by John Carpenter in 1980 or its remake, you know  that something like that in real life would be terrifying, whether the movie was inspired by this paranormal account or the urban legend came about as a result of the movie is up to you to decide ..

ok on to the post.


oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

One foggy day
............

On October 9th 1976 in a small town in Norther Ireland a strange fog rolled in at around 7:00 pm.


Many residents of the small town felt uneasy and even frightened to the extent of locking up their homes.


The fog had lifted by morning.

But during the night, there had been over 60 reported sightings of the undead.

Police at the time  believed most of the reports were nothing more then prank calls.


However during their investigation, police  found that most of the graves in the local cemetery had been dug up lending credence to the fact that at least some of the calls were more then just pranks..

...
If true tomorrow marks the 45th anniversary of this mysterious zombie fog..

This legend was supposedly  very popular in the 70s all over Europe, but again i was unable to find any actual articles  related to it, if you know of any real news article's regarding this please fill free to post in the comments below.

New post next friday...
