<blue>The Tall Man's Finger is only intended to work with Witch Doctors, and other classes benefiting from its Legendary affix is actually a bug. We plan to implement a hotfix fairly soon that will correct this issue, but we wanted to let everyone know that we plan to do so before hand. Thank you all for the reports!</blue>
The ring may be a reference to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tall_Man_(Phantasm) Phantasm] film series. These films' antagonist, known as the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tall_Man_(Phantasm) "Tall Man"], is known for having once crossed a portal to an unknown place and coming back changed, possessing power to reanimate the dead, much like the Umbaru priest the ring lore talks about. The severed finger part is a reference to one of the most notable scenes in the first film, in which one of the Tall Man's fingers gets severed and transforms into a flying creature.
