How Do You Get Ghostly Robes in OSRS?

This post may contain affiliate links. If you buy something we may get a small commission at no extra cost to you. (Learn more).

Ghostly Robes are obtained from the miniquest Curse of the Empty Lord, where you must seek out six different ghosts.

Each of them will give you a piece of the set, and give you a hint to find the next one.

Below we’ll explain this entire process step-by-step.

 

Requirements

In order to start and complete this miniquest, you will need to:

  • Finish The Restless Ghost
  • Bring an Amulet of Ghostspeak
  • Begin the quest “Desert Treasure”, until you get a Ring of Visibility, which requires 53 thieving (unboostable). If you’ve lost your Ring, you can speak to Rasolo near Baxtorian Falls to get it back.
  • There’s a 1-in-3 chance you’ll need 31 Prayer (unboostable). You’ll know whether you need it or not in the beginning of the quest.

So let’s start!

Don’t forget, you’ll need your Ring of Visibility and a Ghostspeak Amulet for all the steps.

You can bank the Ghostly pieces as you go, and you can drop trick them for duplicates if you want to.

 

Start – Valdez The Explorer

 
Valdez The Explorer location / Old School RuneScape
 

Valdez the Explorer (Mysterious Stranger) can be found outside Glarial’s Tomb (The cave you can enter with Glarial’s Pebble).

Speaking to him will give you a Ghostly Robe Top, and a hint on where to find the next ghost.

According to what he says, you’ll have to follow a certain path of this guide. It’s worth noting that ghosts will appear at all locations, but you’ll need to go to the location assigned to you, in the correct order.

If the ghost hints about…

  • Pirates and a Shipwreck: Go to Path 1 below
  • Thief northeast of here: Go to Path 2 below (31 prayer required)
  • Thief southeast of here: Go to Path 3 below

 

Path 1 – Pirates And A Shipwreck

 
Rennard location / Old School RuneScape
 

1A – Talk to Rennard in the far north of the Wilderness, between the Wilderness Agility Course and the Pirates’ Hideout, next to the boat with Larran’s Chest.

He’ll give you the Ghostly Gloves.

Feel free to bank them in the Mage Arena bank!

 
Kharrim at the Chaos Altar / OSRS
 

1B – Kharrim can be found by the Chaos Altar hut, a bit further south, in level 38 Wilderness.

Note this is a PKing hotspot, so be wary of PKers!

Speaking to him will net you the Ghostly Boots. You won’t come back to the Wilderness after this piece.

 
Lennissa inside Entrana Church / OSRS
 

1C – Lennissa is inside the Entrana church (Don’t worry, Ghostspeak Amulet and Ring of Visibility can be carried to Entrana).

After chatting, you’ll get your Ghostly Bottoms. Two more to go!

 
Dhalak at bottom floor of Wizards Tower / OSRS
 

1D – Dhalak is on the ground floor of Wizard’s Tower, near Draynor Village.

He’ll give you the Ghostly Hood after talking for a bit.

 
Viggora in Rogues’ Castle / OSRS
 

1E – Lastly, Viggora is on the 1st floor (not the ground floor) of Rogues’ Castle, once again in deep Wilderness.

It’s the same room where a Bronze Sq Shield spawns. He’ll give you the Ghostly Cloak.

Congratulations on completing your Ghostly Robes set! If lost, you can go back to Valdez near Glarial’s Tomb and he’ll hand you a replacement of whatever pieces you’ve lost.

 

Path 2 – Thief Northeast Of Here

 
Rennard in the Bandit Camp / Old School RuneScape
 

2A – Talk to Rennard in the Bandit Camp, inside the Wilderness.

This one can be a bit tricky; try to trap the bandits inside the food shop if you need to. He’ll give you the Ghostly Robes.

You might want to bank them, although the next one is nearby.

 
Kharrim in the Graveyard of Shadows / OSRS
 

2B – Kharrim is at the Graveyard of Shadows, east of the Bandit Camp and just north of Ferox Enclave.

Talk to him to get the Ghostly Boots.

You won’t come back to the Wilderness after this piece.

 
Lennissa at Port Sarim / OSRS
 

2C – Lennissa is at Port Sarim, by the boat used to travel to Crandor in Dragon Slayer.

She’ll give you the Ghostly Bottoms.

 
Dhalak upstairs in Edgeville Monastery / OSRS
 

2D – Dhalak is upstairs in Edgeville Monastery, by the altar (needing 31 Prayer).

He’ll hand you the Ghostly Hood after chatting.

 
Viggora on 1F of Slayer Tower (Canifis) / OSRS
 

2E – Viggora is on the 1st floor (not the ground floor) of the Slayer Tower in Canifis, near the Infernal Mages.

He’ll hand you a Ghostly Cloak.

Congratulations on completing your Ghostly Robes set! If lost, you can go back to Valdez near Glarial’s Tomb, and he’ll hand you a replacement of whatever pieces you’ve lost.

 

Path 3 – Thief Southeast Of Here

 
Rennard in Desert Bandit Camp / Old School RuneScape
 

3A – Talk to Rennard in the Desert Bandit Camp, inside the bar.

He’ll hand you a pair of Ghostly Gloves.

 
Kharrim inside Lava Maze / OSRS
 

3B – Kharrim is deep inside the Lava Maze (not down the ladders!) in the Wilderness. Bring a slash weapon!

He’ll give you some Ghostly Boots.

 
Lennissa inside Tree Gnome Stronghold / OSRS
 

3C – Lennissa is inside Tree Gnome Stronghold, barely south of the Gnomeball field.

She’ll give you the Ghostly Bottoms after a small chat.

 
Dhalak in the Falador Party Room / OSRS
 

3D – Dhalak is upstairs in the Falador Party Room.

He’ll give you the Ghostly Hood. One more to go!

 
Viggora in the Edgeville Dungeon / Old School RuneScape
 

3E – Viggora wanders in the north Earth Warrior spot of the Edgeville Dungeon. Be careful, this is inside the Wilderness! Earth Warriors will be aggressive so try to put Viggora between you and the Warriors if you’re having trouble.

Talking to him will reward you with a Ghostly Cloak.

Congratulations on completing your Ghostly Robes set! If lost, you can go back to Valdez near Glarial’s Tomb, and he’ll hand you a replacement of whatever pieces you’ve lost.

And after getting your Ghostly Robes you might also be interested in completing The General’s Shadow: a separate miniquest that grants you the Shadow Sword, which is a matching weapon for the set.
