Zombie heads were available on October 31, 2005, and a week after it. During this time, zombies were placed in Lumbridge Swamp and kids were placed in Lumbridge. If a player right-clicked on the the zombies, they could talk to them or insult them. When a player insulted them, depending on the zombie, they either split in half from top to bottom, split along their waist, or their heads would fall off and the player had to catch it. Scaring a zombie also gave players the 'scared' emote. When they caught the head, it appeared in their inventory. Players can right-click the head and talk with it or select actions which other players can see. The head cannot be equipped. If a player lost the head, they could go back to Lumbridge Swamp and dig with a spade to find another head. Players could scare the 'trick or treating' kids in Lumbridge with the zombie head, making them drop some sweets. Players could also treat the kids with money or stolen sweets. The candy was nontradable and came in different colours: red, blue, green, and purple. They melted into chocolate dust after a week.
Any player owning a Zombie Head has access to two unique emotes provided he has the head. The player may prop the head on his/her hand and say, 'Alas!', or the player may hold the head by the hair and let out an 'evil laugh'.
[edit] Trivia
- The "Alas!" and the examine text (Alas... I hardly knew him.) is a reference to the famous Shakesperean tragedy Hamlet. In one scene, Hamlet finds the remains of a friend of his and performs a soliloquy with the skull, one line being the famous (and often misquoted) "Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio."
