Zombie counterparts are a series of Zombie monsters identified by having an existing non-Zombie counterpart.
Zombie counterparts sometimes have effects similar to those of their counterparts but worked to go with the theme of manipulating Zombie monsters you own or control, typically either summoning them, sending them to the Graveyard, or banishing them out of the Graveyard to trigger effects.

"Call of the Haunted"
In the manga and anime, "Call of the Haunted" was used to revive monsters in the Graveyard as Zombies. This would Summon them as decayed versions of their former selves, which would continue to revive each time they were destroyed (unless these monsters had 0 ATK). As they could only fight on instinct, they had 0 DEF.
When released in the OCG and TCG, the counterparts were Normal Monsters, two Levels lower than their original counterparts and with no connection to "Call of the Haunted".
In the video game, Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters, these zombie counterparts could be Summoned by fusing the original monster with "Life Eater", "B.eye Silv. Zombie" or "Hourglass of Life".
