I ran a campaign based on the historical Black Plague except that the plague created cannibalistic zombies instead! It was a lot of fun to watch the fighters pile the corpses up so high that it granted cover. Now I had already banned Turn Undead as a clerical ability since all the deities were Neutral. I also ruled that Plague Zombies could only be damaged by magic, silver, or cold iron. This meant that the townsfolk and villagers were highly vulnerable. Oh and of course only the destruction of the head would stop the zombies. This gave each zombie the equivalent of a cloak of displacement, i.e. 50% chance to hit the head.
I really freaked out my players when they confronted cannibalistic zombie babies whose first words were "bwains…"
