Fun card, works well with Gempalm Polluter. Doesn't work at all with Vengeful Dead however. Tokens do not go to the graveyard.

FFXIK: I guess it's already been said here a few times, but TOKENS DO GO TO THE GRAVEYARD. They simply cease to exist shortly thereafter. Meaning: a token that "dies" (to use the new M12 terminology) will trigger abilities that care about when a creature dies. So, when your Tombstone Stairwell-produced zombie tokens die every end step, they will trigger Vengeful Dead, Dross Harvester, Deathgreeter, Vicious Shadows, Grim Feast, Fecundity, Hissing Iguanar, Stalking Vengeance, Last Laugh, Grave Pact, and any other permanent that cares about creatures dying. However, the tokens do cease to exist, which is probably the source of confusion for you. This just means they won't count toward things that care about the number of creatures in your graveyard, like Mortivore/autocar... (see all)

Vengeful Dead and Gempalm Polluter have been mentioned. If you are going with the "zombie deck" route, why not toss in a few Noxious Ghouls? this will give -1/-1 all around and 0 toughness goes to graveyard. ergo, more options for more zombies to return to play. thus killing more and more creatures. each time the tokens die, Vengeful Dead.

I like the idea of playing a Massacre Wurm with this in play...
even meaner if you play both before their turn, so they get to see it coming!
-
only problem is all the Bojuka Bog etc effects in EDH -
too often my opponents have no creatures in the graveyard to make it lethal.
but then I just feed my tokens to Ashnod's Altar + Exsanguinate and...
run

Oh boy, curves in to Showstopper to obliterate the field, works well with Bloodchief Ascension, blood seeker, and more.
