By the way, Magnus, this isn't the only way to create a zombie.
Soul-sucking.
1. At night, a sorcerer approaches the door of the intended victim's house, presses his lips to the door crack, and sucks out the soul of the sleeping person, placing it in a special bottle. The person, deprived of their soul, soon dies, is buried, and at midnight after the burial, the sorcerer and his assistants dig up the grave. The victim's name is spoken, after which the dead person supposedly tries to lift his head – because the sorcerer holds a vessel with his soul in his hand. As soon as he does this, the vessel is brought to the deceased's nose and opened for a fraction of a second, as if releasing part of the captured soul. It is believed that this restores life to the body. Completing the ritual, the sorcerer leads the revived zombie past his house and recites spells to forever deprive the victim of memories of his past life.
2. Another way to steal a soul is for the sorcerer to place a vessel with magical objects under the pillow, which will attract the soul. Finally, the sorcerer can prepare a special potion that paralyzes a person and thus deprives him of the ability to resist.

Usually, relatives guard the grave because it is considered a great shame if the zombie returns to your home; it is usually washed away with blood. Zombies are usually short-lived, rarely surviving for 3-5 years, because in many cases, decomposition occurs. In addition, in cases where the sorcerer binds the zombie to himself
