The Haunted Cemetery is a medium-level dungeon. Enemies and bosses are weaker at first stages but are increasingly stronger after each wave. The dungeon consists of five stages: the Haunted Cemetery, the Gates, the Crypt, the Graves, and the Final Battle. Each stage consists of five rounds against enemies, with the fifth round being a boss encounter.
This dungeon is intended for medium-level players. A great dungeon to get spare gear, as the dungeon drops a lot of Tier 5 abilities and Tier 9-11 weapons, as well as armor. The dungeon is a major source of Potions of Speed, with up to five potions potentially obtainable in a single run. It is also the main source of four untiered items: the Amulet of Dispersion, Plague Poison, Soul’s Guidance, and Resurrected Warrior’s Armor, along with the entire Skuld 2 the ReGhostening Rogue ST Set.
Entrances to the Haunted Cemetery are dropped from Headless Horsemen, an uncommon enemy in the Mountains.
This dungeon must be completed to earn ‘Explosive Journey‘, ‘King of the Mountains‘, ‘Hero of the Nexus’ and ‘Realm of the Mad God’ fame bonuses.

Many years ago, adventurers such as yourself would commonly have their graves robbed by fellow explorers. To prevent this desecration, body collectors would move the corpses of the most legendary heroes to an enclosed cemetery. Grave robbery was eventually outlawed, so the graveyard fell to disuse. The heroic spirits littered within attracted Skuld, master of the afterlife, to take residence. |
The Cemetery Key is available in the Nexus for 100 .
The Haunted Cemetery Guide is currently outdated.
Skuld has many lines she will say throughout the dungeon. Before a new area begins she will cycle between:
”Say, ‘READY’ when you are ready to face your opponents.”
“Prepare yourself…Say ‘READY’ when you wish the battle to begin!”
In the first area before every new wave she says one of the following:
”The next wave will appear in 3 seconds. Prepare yourself!”
“I hope you’re prepared because the next wave is in 3 seconds.”
“3 seconds until the next attack!”
“The next onslaught will begin in 3 seconds!”
“The next challenge will begin in 3 seconds.”
Upon the first boss she will say:
”Look sharp! A mighty foe is approaching!”
“Welcome to my domain. I challenge you, warrior, to defeat my undead hordes and claim your prize…”
The Troll Matriarch will spawn at the top of the map but move, invulnerable, to the middle of the map. Then she will start her phases and be damageable.
“Proceed north for your next challenge, warrior!”
“Congratulations on making it past the first area! This area will not be so easy!”
The Ghost Bride is essentially 3 different enemies, as she takes control of the 2 statues in the room. After both statues have been destroyed she will remain damageable until she dies. Note that damaging the other two bosses (Fate and Glory) do NOT account for soul bound damage for the Ghost Bride.
“You’ve cleared another stage of this gauntlet! You will face more relentless foes from here on out.”
After spawning, the Pumpkin King will remain invulnerable for a couple seconds and then spawn 4 Jack-o’-lanturns. In order to damage the Pumpkin King, you must first destroy these four Jack-o’-lanturns. Then he will chase you while being vulnerable.
“Your prowess in battle is impressive…and most annoying. This round shall crush you.”
The Haunted Cemetery is part of the Standard Quest pool from the Tinkerer and has four associated quests.
Name | Description | Items Needed | Reward |
---|---|---|---|
The Apparition | Defeat the Ghost of Skuld in the Haunted Cemetery. | ||
To the Mountains! | Head to the mountains to take down Oryx’s generals! | ||
Smite the Undead! | Put these ones back in their graves, would ya? | ||
That’s the Spirit | All sorts of ghouls lurk in the realm, some more frightening than others! |
The final boss can be lethal even for maxed characters due to its paralyzing attacks. Weaker characters should not feel obligated to complete the entire dungeon because the easier bosses of earlier stages can still drop a significant amount of loot.
The Haunted Cemetery was added to the game in Release 5.
The Haunted Cemetery used to have these layouts, with no Pumpkin King:
Old verisons of this dungeon had each room be its own seperate instance, rather than all of them being in the same map.
After reaching the 3rd room one particular gravestone stands out from all others. All the way up in the left corner of the graveyard a gravestone can be seen resembling “#1” which is a reference to the television show ‘SpongeBob Squarepants’.
During SpongeBob Squarepants Season 3 Episode 5 titled “One Krabs Trash” the story of Smitty Werbenjagermanjensen is featured. Werbenjagermanjensen is a deceased fictional character that wears a soda cap that says “#1”.
The number of flowers belove the graves correspond to the number of maxed stats.
