'''Zombie Chickens''', also known as '''Scowlers'''<ref>The name comes from [[Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc: Official Strategy Guide‎|the official strategy guide of ''Rayman 3'']].</ref>, are enemies found in the gloomier parts of [[the Glade of Dreams]]. They first appear in ''[[Rayman 2]]'', where it is said that they are the result of hens laying dead eggs out of terror at the events caused by the [[Robo-Pirate]]s. They can also be seen in [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']] and very briefly in [[Rayman 3|the console versions]]. Ghostly, spirit-like versions can also be seen floating around levels in ''[[Rayman M]]'' and its remakes. In the manual of ''[[Rayman Origins]]'', it is explained that when the [[nymph]]s were on their way to create [[Rayman]], a group of Zombie Chickens ~~attacked~~ them ~~and stole some~~ [[Lum]]s that ~~the [[nymph]]s~~ were carrying— as a result, [[Rayman]] was made without limbs.

It is unknown whether the Zombie Chickens have any connection to the [[Deny]]s or the [[Minisaurus]]es, other chicken-like creatures found in [[the Glade of Dreams]].

While they do not make an appearance in the final product, the manual refers to Zombie Chickens as being the cause of [[Rayman]]'s lack of limbs, due to them ~~attacking~~ the [[nymph]]s and causing them to lose some of the [[Lum]]s they had gathered in order to create [[Rayman]].

A Zombie Chicken was also featured in one edition of ''[[the Daily Bubble]]'', and one can be seen in the front cover of the game.
