Spirit NPCs are ghosts in Elden Ring. They help shed light on events that have happened throughout the Lands Between.
Please note: This list is currently incomplete.
Please, help me. I'm of noble blood. If those hideous mongrels eat me, I'll be forever marred...

Spirit NPC Notes & Tips
- Please note: All the names are unofficial.
- All Spirit NPCs have mushrooms that can be seen around their feet.
The Mushroom Set states: "To those enraptured by the scarlet rot, they are holy vestments that root one to the earth."
It's unclear how most of these Spirits died, but Mushrooms could be a way to 'root one to the earth', no matter the cause of death.

According to game file and dialogue files, there are a total of 38 white phantom NPCs that speak silently (not counting the Wandering Artist Spirit). These spirit NPCs are named as 話す死体 (Talking Corpses) in the Japanese in-game file (NPC list), but are unnamed in English in-game file (only ID's remain). Their ID's range from 170000 to 170037.
I can confirm that all 38 spirits are actually in game. Many of them are easy to miss, especially during daytime.
All of their words hint at past stories, and some of them are very important for understanding the lore.
