The Undead (Ashford)

The Undead. Due by Day 7. Our media portrayals of vampire, ghosts, and zombies are unique to our contemporary culture. For this assignment, choose one of these three undead figures, and describe its meaning in a cultural or religious context of your choice. Support your claims with relevant, high-quality sources. Then, compare the American popular media portrayal of that undead figure to the way it functions in the chosen culture.

The paper must be two to three pages in length (excluding the title and references pages) and formatted according to APA style. You must use at least three scholarly sources which can be found in the Ashford University Library and the textbook to support your claims and sub claims. Cite your sources in text and on the references page.
