Haunted Dead — Graveborn Recursion
Haunted Dead is a compact engine piece that rewards tempo and graveyard investment. This Innistrad Remastered Retro Frame Near Mint copy preserves the card art and printed feel while offering a clean 2 2 body for three and a black mana. When Haunted Dead enters the battlefield it immediately produces a 1 1 white Spirit token with flying, which answers early air threats and pressures life totals while you set up a recursion plan.
Its second ability is the real hook for decks that play discard synergies and sacrifice outlets. For the cost of one and a black plus discarding two cards you return Haunted Dead from your graveyard to the battlefield tapped. That loops into value by producing repeat attackers and chump blockers and by turning excess cards in hand into board presence. Practical on its own and better in decks that exploit the graveyard, this piece fits midrange, Aristocrats style builds, and any shell that wants reliable black recursion. Add this Near Mint Retro Frame to your collection or deck and test how it reshapes late game lines.
