The Legend of Navin Holt - Zombie Hunter

by L. John Farrelly
(Northern Ireland)

Around 620,000 men died during the American Civil War that raged from 1861 to 1865. Of these, over 204,000 were killed in action or died from their wounds. Over twice that number succumbed to diseases such as typhoid, dysentery and consumption.
The rest are unaccounted for.
Both Union and Confederate records are sketchy in their official explanations, writing the numbers off as ‘desertion’, ‘missing in action’ or ‘unknown’. The truth about the missing dead has never been revealed.
Until now.
A journal dating back to 1859 was discovered by the family of one Miss Martha Johnstone, native to Woonsocket, Rhode Island, on September 13th, 2008, after Miss Johnstone died from a brain embolism. She had acquired the journal on Ebay for eight dollars and fifty cents. It originally belonged to
a man named Navin Holt.
The journal described how the dead arose on Civil War battlefields and began to attack the living. The color of their uniforms did not matter: blue ate blue and gray ate gray.
The U.S. Government denied that any such events occurred but has since seized the document under the Homeland Security Act of 2002.
But it was too late. Miss Johnstone had already made copies of the journal and circulated them on the internet.
Her website claimed to contain evidence of the world’s first professional zombie hunter.
This is his story.
