'''Zombie''' is one of the many [[colours|colours]] that users can paint their [[Neopet|Neopets]] and [[Petpets]]. In general, Zombie pets resemble [[Wikipedia:Zombie|zombies]], with greyish skin, glazed over eyes, and tattered clothing. 


The term '''Zombie''' refers to a creature in [[Neopia]] (usually a [[Neopet (species)|Neopet]] or [[Petpet]]) which bares resemblance to or is a [[Wikipedia:Zombie|Zombie]]. On [[Neopets (website)|Neopets]], Zombies existed since at least October 15, 2001 when [[NeoQuest I]] featured zombified characters, and introduced as an actual [[colour]] on October 25, 2007. A '''Zombie Petpet Paint Brush''' has also been anonnced.
The Zombie colour for Neopets was released on October 25, 2007.  Users can change the colour of their Neopets to Zombie by using a ''Zombie [[Paint Brush]]'' [[item]] at the [[The Rainbow Pool|Rainbow Pool]]. In addition, the [[Treasure Maps#Secret Laboratory|Lab Ray]] also has a random chance of turning the colour of a user's Neopet to Zombie. Users also have the choice of changing their Neopets's colour to Zombie when they complete a [[Rainbow Fountain|Fountain Faerie Quest]]. Lastly, a Neopet's colour can be changed to Zombie by using an appropriate [[Morphing Potion]].


==Overview==
The Zombie colour for Petpets was released on August 21, 2010.  Petpets can be painted Zombie by using the ''Zombie [[Paint Brush#Petpet Paint Brush|Petpet Paint Brush]]'' item at the [[The Rainbow Pool#Petpet Puddle|Petpet Puddle]].  In addition, the [[Treasure Maps#Petpet Laboratory|Petpet Lab Ray]] also has a random chance of turning the colour of a user's Petpet to Zombie.
Zombified creatures in Neopia walk around moaning about [[Wikipedia:Brain|Brains]] and are believed to be indulge in the grey matter's consumption... behind closed doors, of course.  It's a theory that has no textual backing, but the silence may just be [[The Neopets Team]]'s way of keeping Neopets a bright and cheery place (on the surface).


Zombies are one of the many pop culture references The Neopets Team places into the game. Their hopping on the zombie bandwagon can be seen in [[Neopian Times]] editorial [http://www.neopets.com/newnt/index.phtml?section=editorial&week=158 #158], where they claim to dress as Zombies.  It's also interesting to note that the staff is said to have met the director of [[Wikipedia:Shaun of the Dead|Shaun of the Dead]].
