Dialogue
- "I have communed with the spirits, and they are, in fact, quite content. However, their slumber was disturbed, and they've woken up a bit grumpy, as you might expect. It seems some childlike spirits awoke recently and roused them from their sleep. These spirits had rested here since primeval times. But they were greatly disturbed by spiritual activity to the north and fled. Now, they've scattered throughout the crypt and into the swamp. We must help these spirits find their way home. Once they are resting again, all will be well in the crypt. A torch bearing the flames that have lit the crypt for centuries will help guide these primeval spirits home."

Walkthrough[ | ]
There are a few Sunspear Ghosts wandering around, ignore those. The ones you want are called simply "Ghost". Follow the quest marker on your compass to find them. Once you are close enough, a dialogue triggers and the ghost will stand up and start to follow you. The ghosts are scattered around the area. You can avoid most combat but not all. As you are carrying the torch, you cannot use a weapon. To fight, simply drop the torch, and pick it up after the battle is over.
Once you have found the five ghosts, return to the ruins where you got the quest. As you approach the quest marker, the ghosts will disappear and you have finished the quest. Return to Blacktide Den and speak to Necromancer Musseh to claim your reward.
Notes[ | ]
- Be careful taking this quest while To Ask For More is active. The Vabbian Nobleman form very effective walls.
- Sometimes the ghosts will block the entire party from moving, with a solo player. If this happens, try using the /stuck command to free yourself.
- If you had to redo the quest after map traveling, talk to Necromancer Lahse to re-obtain the torch.
- If you have the What Do You Do with a Drunken Shauben? quest active while doing this quest, one of the Ghosts will be in the midst of a great big pile of Corsairs. If you feel mighty, get the Corsair Bounty from the nearby Sunspear Scout, and hack away to complete the Shauben quest along with this quest.
Trivia[ | ]
- The title of this quest is based on an old children's game, "Ghosts in the Graveyard".
- Dialogue reference to the movie Poltergeist
