George Washington


 George Washington died in December 14th 1799 after contracting what appears to have been a epiglottitis (a serious throat infection) .

He had been dead for several hours when his friend, Dr Thornton arrived.

He offered to reanimated the old and cold corpse ( by now ) and he had a plan.

First to immerse the body and hot water and friction him well , warm blankets came next, then he would insert a tube into his trachea to pump air and ultimately....he had a fresh lamb blood perfusion.

His hopes were that the blood will sparkle with vitality his circulatory system.

Luckily, Martha Washington, declined his offer. The president was ready for his eternal rest.

The prospect of a Zombie George Washington would make for a bold twist on the Resident Evil video game franchise. They would called it President evil.
