However, the guests arrive to find that the professor is missing, and the mansion is surrounded by zombies, who attack them on sight. The group tries to defend themselves with weapons, but soon realizes that the zombies are nearly indestructible.
As the night progresses, the survivors are chased around the house and separated from each other.
