It reappeared in the RNA Guild Kit on with cards like Belfry Spirit, and again in with the introduction of Double Masters 2022 with the reprint of Orzhov Pontiff.Īccording to head designer Mark Rosewater, the ability was a “mistake,” and WotC doesn’t have any plans on bringing it back. According to the collection number, the first card with the ability was Benediction of Moons, a spell that lets you gain life for each player for 1 mana when it resolves and when the haunted creature dies. Haunt was first introduced in Guildpact on. When this creature dies, the ability of the card with haunt triggers and the effect is put onto the stack. When a permanent or a resolved spell with haunt goes to the graveyard, you exile it, targeting a creature. While haunt is a keyword ability that’s often seen on creatures, it can be placed on any type of card. Exhumer Thrull | Illustration by Warren Mahy
