[[File:Arena-spectral-hand-outline2GotD1.jpgpng|framethumb|400px|Runed Grasp of the Dead on a Wizard.]]
This [[skill]] is powerful, but has a very small radius of effect. Possibly this can be increased with a [[runestone]]. As it is, GotD requires precise aim and timing to hit a moving target.
'''Grasp of the Dead''' was first listed in the [[BlizzCon 2009]] gameplay demo at Tier III in the [[Zombie Skill Tree]], but it had not yet been implemented.
This skill was present on the pre-made Witch Doctor in the [[Blizzcon 2010]] [[Arena]], and was shown to be quite effective. [[Flux]] wrote about it in his length PvP hands-on report:[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/hands-on-from-blizzcon-mega-pvp-arena-report/] <blockquote>''A very powerful curse, this one greatly slowed the enemy, as well as afflicting them with a sort of worming, brown, burning graphic. It’s actively unpleasant to see this on your character; you actually feel like they’re being eaten alive. And you can’t even run from it properly, in your slow motion cursed state. Hard to hit a moving target with this one since the radius of effect was very small, but hugely useful if you managed it.</blockquote>
