Here's a website that features all the stories from the newspaper you see in Day of the Dead with the Main Headline "The Dead Walk"
The Last Newspaper Link
I came across it while making "The Diner". It's pretty cool
Here's a couple of samples
THE DEAD WALK!
Biologists in Washington DC have released a report stating that the bodies of the recently-dead are returning to life, driven by an unknown force that enables the brain to continue to function. Doctors at the Center For Disease Control in Atlanta reject that theory, calling it "preposterous beyond belief". They feel the only reasonable explanation is a germ, a bacteria or virus, that has a mind-altering effect on its victims. Though how such a germ could have been delivered so quickly and over such a vast area remains a mystery. Researchers there are now working on a vaccine for this ghoulish plague. It’s being called Judgement Day by religious leaders who are asking for prayer, forgiveness, and understanding. These re-activated bodies are weak and uncoordinated, but are capable of inflicting damage on people and on property. They are to be considered extremely dangerous, especially when encountered in large numbers. These bodies can be disposed of in only one known manner. That is by incapacitating the brain. These re-activated bodies will attack warm-blooded animals of all species, including human beings, without provocation, and will devour the flesh of any prey. Dr. Matthew Logan of the neurology department at the US Army Medical Museum of Washington DC at a conference spoke about the mysterious condition. "Our research is just beginning. Earlier yesterday morning, in the cold room at the university, we had a cadaver, a cadaver from which all four limbs had been amputated. In a short time after being removed from the cold room, it opened its eyes. It was dead, but it opened its eyes and began to move. Problem now is to obtain more of such cadavers for examination and experimentation. We have to ask the military personnel and the civilian patrols that are out in the field to stop burning all of these things. We need them to be brought to us still alive so we can study them." When asked if he believed the crisis is a result of the Venus probe, he shook his head uncertain, saying "I’m not an aerospace expert. All we know right now is that there’s likely some pathological reason. If there is an unknown, extraterrestrial microbe, we would have to isolate it in a laboratory, and still go to Venus and see if it exists there. The only thing to do is to hope that it is a mutant form of virus that can not reproduce and that will die off soon."
It'd be cool to own an original, but now that someone has posted all the stories it probably wouldn't be too difficult to make your own.

Food Supply Dwindles
Governor Urges Residents To Remain Calm, in Homes
Normal broadcast facilities have been temporarily discontinued. Your law enforcement agencies urge you to remain in your homes. Keep all doors and windows locked or boarded shut. Use all food, water, and medical supplies sparingly. Civil defense forces are attempting to gain control of the situation. Stay near your radios and TVs. Do not use your car. Remain in your homes. Keep all doors and windows locked. Do not attempt to reach friends or family. Do not attempt to reach any of the rescue stations identified in previous advisories. They may no longer be in operation. Civil forces and the military have been mobilized but the violence is so widespread that it is impossible for rescue services to respond with any efficiency. People left to defend themselves are caught in the grip of mounting panic and confusion. That confusion is being compounded in the cities by looting, rioting, and in rural areas by citizens who, faced with the collapse of local police and fire departments, have taken the law into their own hands. Civil and social services have been disrupted or suspended. Most communities are without telephones. Many are without power. Some are without gas and water.
