Mortwights are spirits of those who died extremely violent deaths. Their rage and anger towards their death causes them to awaken in the Shadowlands as Spectres, never existing as a ghost. Many Mortwights had dark natures to begin with, and some believe they were destined to be Spectres from the beginning. They appear in both Wraith: The Oblivion and Orpheus. * Orpheus, End Game, p. 113
