Letter From the Curator
It is me, Ethan the Elder. I hope you're enjoying the museum.
Look around you. Don't you feel it, in the air? The air of science!
When I first conceived of this museum, I immediately settled on a blank, white, modernist aesthetic, untainted by any sort of deviant color. I hope, surrounded by the tall, formless walls, that you feel right at home, ready to bring your scientific magnifying glass to some peculiar zombie races! My primary goal in this exhibit is to give an objective, rationalist view of the history of Zombies, creating an ideal place for the rationalist Man to learn about the strange and exotic ravages from the past! Although the undead may scare you, I hope that this museum can serve as a safe perch for which you can look around and learn all about these fascinating monstrosities.
This exhibit is named "The Museum of the Zombie Races" as both a reference to the Plinian races of classical antiquity, and also of modern museums. Just like Pliny the Elder's Natural History, which catalogs countless eyewitness reports and testimonies of various different eccentric monsters that people proclaimed to exist outside of Ancient Greece, my museum here catalogs many of the different zombie races that exist all around the world. But as Pliny failed to deliver scientific truth, all of our information is completely verified, peer reviewed by scholars! Truly incredible, isn't it? Man can conquer all. What was once mystery, is now scientific fact! Long live the scientific method!
Enjoy your stay.
Ethan the Elder
