I re-listened to Chapter 23 part 2 and noticed something that I missed before. When Saul is listening to the end Lizzie's recording you can hear that she drops the recorder and is taken away by the Mallers after attacking the arena. Saul sobs and sniffles as the recording continues.

On the recording you can hear

  • Scratch screaming.
  • A car door slam.
  • A vehicle peeling away.
  • Footsteps of running zombies. They stop in close proximity to the recorder.
  • Saul sniffling, then he stops. Zombie grunts, growls.
  • Zombie 'sniffing'.
  • This is ambiguous and probably meant to be so. Pareidolia at its finest. Sounds like a Zombie saying, "NO!" then running off.


Yes, the Ghost Hunters would have a field day with this recording.

We know of one talking Zombie, Pinstripes.
Lizzie saw him at the ambush on the way to the arena shortly before the bombing.
Possible that he recognized her scent (or Saul's or the tower's) from his attack on the tower?

This takes place starting at 5:58.
