Haunt

Haunt is a powerful and highly addictive drug that allows the user to see and interact with the spirits of the deceased. Unlike typical hallucinations, the spirits that appear to the user are real entities, and the drug Haunt causes them to be pulled towards the user.   
"Haunt promised me a chance to see my beloved again, but it only brought me closer to madness. The visions were so real, so vivid, but they consumed me and left me in darkness. I had never felt so alone. Now, I'm left with the screams of the dead in my head and the addiction that won't let me go. Beware of Haunt, it's a demon disguised as a savior." -former user of Haunt
 

Description:

Haunt is a powerful and potent hallucinogenic drug, that is prized for its ability to allow the user to see and interact with the spirits of the deceased. Unlike typical hallucinations, the spirits that appear to the user are real entities, that are pulled towards the user by the drug's effects. The drug is typically administered through injection directly into the eye, and has a pale green color.  

Effects:

The effects of Haunt are intense and can last for hours, providing vivid and powerful interactions with spirits. The strength of the connection between the user and the deceased determines the likelihood of the spirits appearing. It is commonly used by those who have lost loved ones and want to reconnect with them.  

Side Effects and Withdrawal:

Haunt is highly addictive and long-term use can lead to addiction, psychological damage, and in some cases, permanent physical or mental impairment. The user may experience confusion, paranoia, anxiety, and loss of motor control, especially in places where a large number of spirits congregate such as graveyards, hospitals, or battlefields. Withdrawal symptoms can include severe depression, intense cravings, and insomnia.   In extreme cases users of haunt exhibit something called ghost limb, parts of their bodies slowly becoming permanently incorporeal, it's rumored that many who start this process become living ghosts eventually forced to live in the place between life and death never knowing rest.  

Procurement:

Haunt is a highly controlled substance and procurement can be difficult. It is not widely available and is often obtained through illicit means, from those who have connections to The Plague Rats as they are the only known source in Arbor
