Spells

This page lists all the spells that appears in World of Horror. Spells can be obtained from studying in the Library, or through special events. Unlike Category:Items which give the player flat benefits, most of the spells have high costs to them, such as gaining Injuries and Curses, but yield great rewards, such as lowering Doom, gaining permanent stat increases or dealing massive combat damage.

Currently the spells are categorised as follows:
