In November 2013, [[Abstergo Entertainment]] employee [[Christopher Darby]] responded to the Chief Creative Officer [[Olivier Garneau]] in an email thread regarding new time periods for future Omega projects with some historical context for zombies, after the latter had shot down the idea for being outlandish. Darby cited Hurston's book on her experience in Haiti witnessing and participating in voodoo practices as a possible way to present zombies in a more realistic and authentic manner to audiences.<ref name="AC4">''[[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag]]'' - [[Noob's personal files]]: "CONFIDENTIAL - Subject - RE: Potential time periods?"</ref>
