Think about it... your kids know what zombies are by now.  They watched Scooby Doo, and they may have had a few fights with them in your dungeons.

And unless you're completely insane you haven't shown them any Zombie Horror Flicks "Braaains... Braains..."

So... you have a golden opportunity to steal Hollywood's thunder and run this adventure.

My kids really liked this (8 and 6).. its well written so that you can give out lots of hints about what they need to do.  And if you're like me you have at least a sandwich bag of Zombie minis.  There is a definite sense of urgency as the players move from situation to situation.

Spoiler: Adventurers arrive at an abandoned temple just as the sun is going down.  Zombies inside come to life and are quickly hacked up by the adventurers.  Then they realize they are not alone.  There are hundreds if not thousands of zombies trying to get into the temple.  Wave after wave breach the doors and walls trying to get in.  Hence the name... Dead By Dawn.  AKA your standard Zombie Horror Flick.

It is a fun adventure....
