I have an idea for a place called the moonlight mansion. During the day, and most nights, this place appears to be ruins of a lost structure, the only part still in whole is the main doorway. During the night on a full or new moon the shadows from the starlight form the rest of the mansion, More of a stronghold really.
The ghosts of the people attending a dress ball who were murdered by their hosts?
A crew of extra-dimensional Half-Elf/Half-Shadow creates planning on using this as a staging point for a massive invasion? <These creatures, we find out, are what happens to the fractured and lost parts of the Elven and Human souls when the two species interbreed.
Lastly, the remaining refuge of the pleasant aspects of the afterlife. The rest of you campaign world's afterlife has been destroyed in a titanic war that the mortal world has yet to be made aware of.

Ok I totally see it work that the entrance can only be used during the New or Full Moon. So once they enter the will be trapped inside until the next New or Full Moon comes.
Additionally how about there are two "reflections" the "Dark" reflection of the stronghold is entered if the doorway is used during a new moon, and is filled with horror. The "Light" reflection of the stronghold is entered if the doorway is used during the full moon. The same inhabitants exist in both just a "Dark" version and a "Light" version of them. Not necessarily Good and Evil just dark vs light.
You could even have quests that require going back and forth between the two "sides".

Was thinking that, the good vs. Evil thing though, maybe this place had been corrupted by evil and redeemed ... both time periods being trapped in stasis during their respective moon. Thanks for the input you guys.

To go with the Light Side / Dark side idea, maybe the mansion has been cursed and is out of sync with the world. A party needs to go in during a full moon and a new moon to obtain a relic unique to each side.
The relics can then be combined (once separated, now made whole?) to bring the mansion back to the world, freeing the occupants trapped inside.

That's awesome I like that idea!
