Ghostricks are a new halloween based archetype released in shadow specters. They flip themselves up for attacks/effects then flip themselves back down to hide to resemble ghosts.
they have 2 level 1's 2 level 2's and 2 level 3's each level representing a different type
level 1 = fiend
level 2 = spellcaster
level/rank 3 = zombie
they also have 1 xyz monster and some spell/trap support
all ghostrick monsters share the effect
Cannot be Normal Summoned unless you control a "Ghostrick" monster (but can be Normal Set).

Ghostrick Alucard
2 Level 3 monsters
Your opponent cannot target any other "Ghostrick" monsters, nor any face-down Defense Position monsters, for attacks.
You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, then target 1 Set card your opponent controls; destroy that target. You can only use this effect of "Ghostrick Alucard" once per turn.
If this card is sent to the Graveyard: You can target 1 other "Ghostrick" card in your Graveyard; add that target to your hand.
this is the ghostrick xyz monster, and the only monster that can't flip itself face-down. it defends your other ghostricks from attacks. Having 2 of them can stop your opponent from attacking completely. it also destroys your opponents set cards making good use of yuki-onna and witch. last but not least it is a generic rank 3 xyz allowing you to summon it with tour guide.
Ghostrick House
http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Ghostrick_HouseNeither player can attack face-down Defense Position monsters, also a player can be attacked directly if all monsters they control are in face-down Defense Position.
Halve all effect damage that either player takes, and all battle damage that either player takes, except battle damage from "Ghostrick" monsters.

Ghostrick Out
http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Ghostrick_OutReveal 1 "Ghostrick" monster in your hand; this turn, "Ghostrick" cards you currently control and face-down Defense Position monsters you currently control cannot be targeted by, or destroyed by, card effects.
Your protection from effects, not even compulse or d. prison can get past this, as well as saving you from big eye and effect veiler.

Ghostrick Panic
http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Ghostrick_PanicTarget any number of face-down Defense Position monsters you control; change those monsters to face-up Defense Position, and if you do, change face-up monsters your opponent controls to face-down Defense Position, up to the number of "Ghostrick" monsters changed to face-up Defense Position.
This card is definately interesting to say the least. Used with Ghostrick house this card can allow you to deal some good damadge to the opponent or can defend you during your opponents attacks.
