Night Zombie Horror

The PCs happen upon a village full of zombies just after the sun goes down. Naturally, they slaughter as many as they can find. Having grown tired from the day's travel and the night's work, they find a good spot in town to bed down.

They're rudely awakened by villagers who demand to know why they slaughtered half the village!

Back Story

The villagers were cursed by a necromancer to transform into zombies every night. They remember transforming each night and behaving like monsters for the duration. They turn back as soon as the sun goes down.

Then the PCs showed up and killed a bunch of the villagers. Naturally, the survivors are quite angry.
