Overview
A haunting revenant is an undead manifestation bound to a place and a grievance, a territorial horror that possesses and animates structures such as houses, cabins, towers, mills, ruins, churches, manors, gates, and other buildings. Rather than appearing as only a simple ghost, it is best imagined as a haunted structure made alive: doors become grasping limbs, windows resemble watchful eyes, beams twist like bones, stairways coil like spines, and whole buildings move or attack as if the place itself has become the revenant.
