Raise Dead is a death knight ability learned at level 56 for those with the Unholy specialization. It allows the death knight to raise a Risen Ghoul to fight for a limited time. This creature can perform a number of attacks including fear, apply disease, stun, cause a target bleed, and pummel.

With Master of Ghouls (Unholy specialization), the ghoul becomes a permanent pet under the death knight's control.
