Ghost

Ghosts are special enemies in Dark Souls. They are invulnerable to a player who is not Cursed.

Location
Ghosts can be found in New Londo Ruins.

Strategy
Stay on the move and evade, as ghosts' attacks are difficult to block. In particular, they may stretch their arms out and attack from behind.

Bring a Transient Curse to temporarily inflict the Curse status effect on self, which will allow attacking of ghosts without the normal crippling effects of a Curse. Some weapons such as the Jagged Ghost Blade can hit ghosts anyway but this effect will not allow blocking of their attacks.

Ghosts stagger easily.
