Zombie is one-person Floating Ball illusion invented by Joe Karson in which a silver ball floats behind a Foulard.
Ad in Tops (1943)

The inspiration came to Karson when he was fooling around with the simple impromptu trick where the magician interlocks the fingers of both hands and a lighted match appears to magically suspend in air behind it. He patented the Zombie in 1940.
