What Zombie Means
People reach for ๐ง when they mean apocalypse, dead, halloween, horror, scary and similar ideas. Searching Snagmoji for any of those words finds it.

History & Platforms
Zombie was added in 2017 as part of Emoji 5.0. It has artwork in Twemoji, Google's Noto, OpenMoji, but not yet in Microsoft's Fluent. Apple, Samsung and WhatsApp draw it in their own styles, which is why the same emoji can look a little different from phone to phone.
Under the hood ๐ง is the single code point U+1F9DF, and on GitHub, Slack and most chat apps you can type it as :zombie:.
