Land-22
4 Marsh Flats
1 Fetid Heath
2 Orzhov Basilica
3 Caves of Koilos
4 Godless Shrine
2 Plains
6 Swamp

Creatures-23
3 Ghost Council of Orzhova
4 Kalastria Highborn
3 Bloodghast
3 Gatekeeper of Malakir
2 Kitchen Finks
4 Vampire Aristocrat
4 Dark Confidant

Spells-15
4 Thoughtseize
4 Path to Exile
3 Mortify
2 Martial Coup
2 Elspeth, Knight Errant

Sideboard
4 Disenchant
3 Relic of Progenitus
3 Circle of Protection: Red
3 Celestial Purge
2 Profane Command

Basic Ghost Husk deck with the Aristocrat instead of Husk to go with Kalastria Highborn. I'm using Highborn, Bloodghast and Aristocrat to go with Ghost Council to boost and compliment the drain life ability of GC.

I'd put in another copy of Elspeth and go up on fetches (Arid Mesa and Verdant) to give you enough creatures to sacrifice. Grim Discovery and a token generator would be helpful too;
Some token-generating options:
-Emeria Angel
-Benalish Commander
-Bridge from Below
-Puppet Conjurer
-Cenn's Enlistment
-Martial Coup

Of course you only need one, and I haven't seen the deck in action so I'm not sure you even need it. Grim Discovery though, would be a great card to keep Bloodghast coming back, and ensure ur 22 lands is enough to power through later turns.

Forgot about Grim Discovery. Added one more fetch to make it 8, and added 3x Grim Discovery for 2x Kitchen Finks and 1x Urge to Feed.

As for another token maker or two, it's something I'm considering, but until I playtest, I won't know if it's necessary or what to take out and for what. Martial Coup and Bitterblossom are what I'm looking at adding, but I have to playtest first before I decide on what, how much, and what it will replace.

Made more changes. Dropped 4 fetches for a 6th swamp and 3 Caves of Koilos to help with consistency, and dropped the Grims for Martial Coup (tokens, removal at 5+) and Profane Command (utility). Also dropped a Bloodghast and Gatekeeper for 2 Finks.

depends on your meta. i'd be running heavy on martial coup and bloodghast where i play, but if elves and thopters aren't a big issue, you may not need as many.

you may need celestial purge sidedecked for a lot of problem-decks in extended (dark depths - marit lage token is evil, faeries - bitterblossom)

I added the second Coup to the main deck and put the 2nd Profane in the board. I completly spaced Celestial Purge. Added 3 to the board.

Phyrexian Arena: Nver thought of using them over Confidant. I'll try them out.
Fetid Heath: 1-2 is all I'm going to use. I tried 3, and that was a huge detriment to this deck.
Bitterblossom: Too expensive when I need to get Elspeths, Godless Shrines and Bloodghasts.
