Displaying percussion music in \drummode needs a DrumStaff instead of a 
Staff but “normal” notes need a Staff. So you have to create a DrumStaff 
(either \new DrumStaff \drummode or by using the shorthand \drums). Now 
this will of course print an *extra* DrumStaff below the staff. This is 
because Staff contexts accept Voice contexts and some others by default 
but not other Staffs or DrumStaffs (a staff in a staff generally makes 
not much sense). This can be changed in the \with block:

\version "2.18.2"

\new Staff \with {
  \accepts DrumStaff
} {
  \repeat unfold 8 {e''8}
  \drums {
    hh4. r4. hh4
    % else an additional clef would be printed
    \once \omit DrumStaff.Clef
  }
  \clef bass d1
}
