Activate this card by targeting 1 monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon it in Defense Position. It becomes Wyrm-Type. When this card leaves the field, destroy that monster. When that monster leaves the field, destroy this card.
This effect targets 1 monster in your Graveyard.
This effect cannot be activated during the Damage Step.
The effect of "Call of the Haunted" finishes resolving when the targeted monster is Special Summoned. (The Special Summoned monster is treated as a Wyrm-Type monster.)
Neither the effect "when this card leaves the field, destroy that target" nor the effect "when that target is destroyed, destroy this card" starts a Chain Link. (These are also applied during the Damage Step.)
You can also target a monster that is originally a Wyrm-Type monster.
