Kronos Gulch

By day Kronos Creek appears to be a deserted ghost town in the midst of the Ameron Desert.  An eerie sign warns travelers to keep out of the town.  There is little of value, the main street has the remains of a saloon, jail/sheriff's office.  To the west is a church with an old graveyard.

At night it is quite a different place.  The town appears well kept with all of the buildings intact and occupied.  The saloon has a group of revelers who are eager to welcome strangers into their company.  The people refuse to go outside however and will not go outside under pain of death claiming there are monsters outside or that the darkness is haunted.  There are no rooms to rent the rooms are all occupied.

Someone with true seeing will see an overlapping of nearly identical images.

There is a group of ghouls living in the graveyard who are anxious to eat the flesh of any strangers visiting the place.

This town exists simultaneously in two timelines one of which is caught in a time loop.  During the day the deserted town continues to age and decay as a ghost town but during the nighttime, the former inhabitants continually repeat the same evening.
