I started thinking to a zombie deck but i ended doing a weird sort of mono black because Blasting Station mechanic was too awesome to be not used properly.

The whole theme of the game is abuse the graveyard while also hitting opponent life with some gimmicks.

Gravecrawler is pretty good as starting attacking creature but when it gets powercreeped it can be used as fodder for Carrion Feeder , Ayara, First of Locthwain and Blasting Station .

Ayara, First of Locthwain works extremely well with Gravecrawler , Geralf's Messenger and Diregraf Colossus as the latter tokens are black creatures.

Undead Augur replaced the Grim Haruspex for a matter of mana curve and can fetch you quite a lot of cards, just be wary of your life.

Agadeem's Awakening   works extremely well because after a board wipe with 5 mana it can almost put in the battlefield all your creatures; keep in mind you decide the order of abilities' activation so you can potentially make great combos with Diregraf Colossus and Ayara, First of Locthwain OR if you are out of lands in early turns can help you out with its flip Agadeem, the Undercrypt  .

Also you have lot of devotion to black thanks to Ayara, First of Locthwain , Geralf's Messenger and Phyrexian Obliterator easily achieving you lot of mana with Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx to spend for casting creaturs or reviving Gravecrawler or Relentless Dead or dealing quite a lot of damage with Gray Merchant of Asphodel .
