Imagine a battlefield where the line between life and death blurs in the chaos of World War I. Welcome to the Attack of the Dead Men, a haunting tale of resilience and horror that unfolded in what is now north-eastern Poland in 1915. As dawn broke on August 6, 1915, the air thickened with tension, and a sinister green cloud crept ominously across the landscape.
What followed was a scene straight out of a horror movie that would haunt the nightmares of those who witnessed it.
