tl;dr I'm looking for a pre-written campaign that is good for a new DM and experienced players who enjoy combat (and aren't afraid of dying)
I am planning to run my first DnD campaign and am looking for suggestions on a pre-written module that is good for a new DM but also for experienced players who already know the mechanics and love a lot of combat.
Most of the suggestions I see when I google good first time DM campaigns are also targeted at new players. My players have all been playing for along time, and while I have consumed DnD content for many years, I've only played myself for a year and have never DMed before. I want a pre-written module that won't require a ton of extra prep and modifications on my end but is going to be interesting enough for experienced players to go through.
I'm currently playing through Curse of Strahd as a player so I don't want to spoil anything for myself in attempting to run it but otherwise am open to any suggestions.

Phandelver and Below is now really well developed and interesting for all sorts of players.
