Zombies often stand around in groups doing nothing until they see or hear something. But not at Night Time! This mod will gives Zombies nocturnal instincts that kick in once it gets dark. From 10:00pm to 5:00am Zombies Primal hunting instincts will take effect and they will be moving around a lot more, scattering in random directions and be restlessly searching ... for you.

UPDATE: added 2 hours of terror! from when the clock strikes midnight 00:00 to 2:00am zombies harvest the energy from the moon and gain a significant speed boost ! you cannot afford to be outside during this time! NOTE: you can disable 2 hours of terror by removing or deleting "2HoursOfTerror.lua" From the directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\108600\730679898\mods\nocturnal zombies\media\lua\client\
