The Witch Doctor calls forth a malevolent spirit that deals damage to anything it possesses.
==Skill Design==
This skill seems a pretty standard DoT spell, albeit being weak and working somewhat like a summon spell. However, if combined with other DoT effects, can cause the enemy to die rather quickly, as compared to casting [[Skull of Flame]] constantly to take out an enemy. It seems to last for quite a while when it finds an enemy, and multiplication should not be underestimated. Also, this skill doesn't seem to work like other summoning spells, as the spirit will vanish if no enemy is found.
A fan complained about the look of this skill, based on hardly being able to see it in a gameplay movie, and got a reply, in which Bashiok quoted one of the skill designers, [[Julian Love]], in September 2010:[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/haunt-grows-ghostlier/]
Despite this commentary, we've still never had a good look at the skill. If anyone saw or used it at Blizzcon 2010, where it was available in the First Tier, they didn't make any public comment on the graphics.

==[[Synergies]]==
Though there are [[Witch Doctor traits]] that provide various across the board boosts to damage and casting speed, none are specifically aimed at improving Haunt.
==Runestone [[Rune|Rune Skills]] Effects==No * None known. ==Development==Haunt was first seen at [[runestoneBlizzCon 2009]] effects for Haunt are , where it was a Tier 1 skill. By 2010, it had been moved to Tier 2, but no known[[BlizzCon 2010]] reports mention using it.
You can find pictures in the Diablo 3 screenshot and picture gallery. Sadly, no images of Haunt have been seen:
