Can Claude the garden zombie claw his way to a new home in a garden near you after Nashville shows him the shovel?
Claude the zombie lived peacefully in the Grinstead garden since 2010, until last week when the home owners association of Nashville ordered his eviction.
‘During a recent inspection of the community on April 19, 2016, it was noted that there is a zombie in your yard that needs to be removed,” reads the letter received by home owner Jim Grinstead.
The letter surprised Jim who knew about Claude but not about any opposition to him in the neighborhood.
“We never had any complaints. Claude kept the yard nice,” says Jim. “The soil was always aerated and he never left any dead things laying around.”
While Claude’s only public comment so far has been, {sic} “Nnnrrrgh,” Jim says his undead friend now needs a new home and garden.
To adopt Claude – whose name incidentally is pronounced “claw-Ed” as opposed to the French pronunciation “cload,” – leave a message below for Jim Grinsby and keep on keeping on…
