Evento de Knox
O Evento de Knox é usado para se referir ao surto de zumbis que ocorre antes e durante o jogo. O evento acontece primeiro em torno de Muldraugh e West Point, Kentucky. Considera-se que o incidente começou em 4 de julho de 1993, no Dia da Independência Americano. Apenas dois dias depois, os militares evacuaram residências ao redor da área afetada e estabeleceram bloqueios no que ficou conhecido como Evacuação de Knox. A área afetada recebeu o nome de "Zona de Exclusão", sendo o acampamento primário localização ao sul de Louisville.

Rumores sobre as causas do surto
- Um cheiro ruim já estava no ar há semanas antes do bloqueio ser estabelecido, muitos acreditam que é assim que se fica doente; uma vez que entra nos pulmões, está feito.
"Você pode sentir o cheiro no ar. Algo cheira mal há semanas e entra nos pulmões. É isso que está por trás disso." - Christian: ouvinte da KnoxTalk - Muitas pessoas acreditam que algo na carne do Spiffo's seja a causa do surto; o próximo passo evolutivo para a Doença da Vaca Louca.
"Venho alertando as pessoas há anos. Está na carne. Temos alimentado nossas vacas com sua própria espécie. Príons mal dobrados. A matéria cerebral é realimentada na cadeia alimentar. Esses príons têm se acumulado em incontáveis gerações de gado. Isto é claramente um distúrbio neurológico." - Professor Peter Endsleigh - As pessoas religiosas acreditam que os seres humanos estão pagando pelos seus pecados e que seja tudo obra de Deus.
"O fim está próximo. A América pecou. Todos os dias olho para as nossas ruas e vejo depravação e maldade. Uma nação contaminada por pervertidos e pecadores." - Pastor Samuels - O surto tendo ocorrido tão perto do Dia da Independência pode não pode ser mera coincidência, talvez seja um ataque terrorista.
"Terrorismo. Terrorismo é o que quero dizer. Eles vêm atrás de nós há anos. Este é o momento deles." - Francine: outra ouvinte da KnoxTalk
