How does Recurring Nightmare work in Magic The Gathering?
Recurring Nightmare is a classic enchantment card that lets you play a little graveyard shuffle! Simply put, you pay 3 mana to cast it, and then you can sacrifice a creature to bring back any creature from your graveyard to the battlefield. But here's the catch: when you activate its ability, Recurring Nightmare bounces back to your hand, so you gotta cast it all over again to use it. It's like the boomerang of nightmares - keeps coming back as long as you can pay the cost and have creatures to sacrifice!

From personal experience, Recurring Nightmare is a game-changer in MTG. Once played, it allows you to sacrifice a creature to return another creature from your graveyard to the battlefield. The enchantment then returns to your hand, ready to be used again. It's basically an endless cycle of creature revival, perfect for decks that benefit from sacrificing creatures or have powerful enter-the-battlefield effects. Use it wisely, and watch your opponents' despair grow!
Quick take: Recurring Nightmare? Easy. Pay 3, sac one, get one back from the graveyard. Rinse and repeat. Just keep an eye on your mana and your graveyard.
