I really like the old spooky art on some of these cards.

Gets a 4 simply on the basis of showcasing original MtG poetry!

Not a good card, but I still love it. "Her hand gently beckons, she whispers your name--but those who go with her are never the same."

Sure, the flavor text is awesome because it's written in amphibrachic tetrameter, but check this out:

lost-soul-one-black-black-sum-mon-lost-soul-swamp-walk

Even the rules text is in amphibrachic tetrameter!

(bonus: Oracle says it's a Spirit now, and that still scans properly - even better than "lost soul" does :D)

Evil Presence, Contaminated Ground, Tainted Well...classic, but not as useful as the Shades and Wraiths.

I shall freely admit it.

My 18-year old self back in 1995 was very, very happy to own an original Legends version of this card.

*drools some more*

Again, the original trumps the novel in flavor but is bested in mechanics. see: Highborn Ghoul. This trend only confirms the spiritual decline of Western Civilization, which peaked some time between the release of Daydream Nation and Homelands.
