A video of a distressed and injured woman, screaming and limping and resembling a zombie, went viral on social media in May 2021. Due to her unusual zombie-like behavior, she was dubbed the Seattle Zombie Woman by many.
The Rise of the Seattle Zombie Woman?
In May 2021, peculiar video footage surfaced on social media featuring a woman who seemed to be wounded and in agony. She could be seen screaming and hobbling while appearing to be drenched in blood, holding onto a wrapped object in a bloody blanket as one would hold an infant.
The Seattle Zombie Woman was captured in a video by TikTok user Ishea Brown (@sixtwentyseven).
Although the initial video was swiftly deleted from TikTok, users saved and circulated it on Reddit and other social platforms, sparking a widespread discussion about the "Seattle Zombie Woman".
The public promptly dubbed her the "Seattle Zombie Woman" due to her peculiarly zombie-like conduct. Several theories circulated the internet regarding her situation, such as fleeing from a serial killer, experiencing a psychological breakdown, or serving as a viral marketing tactic for a new zombie film.
Who was the Seattle Zombie Woman?
In March 2022, YouTuber Rebecca M.S. shared a video in which she appeared to have uncovered some answers about the "Seattle Zombie Woman" incident from almost a year before.
In the video, she shared social media posts from a woman named Kimberly Kassai, which contained clear photos of Kassai wearing makeup that resembled the "Zombie Woman" videos.
In the end it turned out she was just an antivax protestor. Over a year after the initial viral video, an Instagram post was unearthed. In the post, the woman stated her participation in a political demonstration, asserting that she was not a "lab rat," all while sporting the same zombie makeup and attire that were captured in bystanders' videos and photographs of the public incident.
Way less exciting than a zombie apocalypse.
