Talk to Father Aereck in the Lumbridge Church and he will inform you that a ghost is haunting his graveyard and wants you to help him lay it to rest. He'll then ask you to speak to Father Urhney who is an expert ghost hunter.
-
Head South through the graveyard into Lumbridge Swamp and then West of the mine to find Father Urhney in his hut near the coast. Talk to him about Father Aereck's ghost problem and he will give you a Ghostspeak amulet to allow you to talk to the ghost.
-
Equip the Ghostspeak amulet and make your way back to the graveyard. Open the coffin in the SouthEast corner and a Restless ghost will appear. Talk to him and he'll be surprised you can understand him. He'll tell you that he doesn't know why he hasn't passed on, but perhaps it's because his head is missing from his body. He'll then say that he was killed by a Warlock while mining in the swamp and his skull might be there.
-
Head South into the swamp once again until you reach the mine and search the rocks just southeast of it to find a Muddy skull. A Skeleton warlock (level 7) will appear and attack you. You can either kill it or run away with the skull.
-
Go back to the graveyard and open the coffin again, then use the skull on it. A short cutscene will follow in which the Restless ghost will thank you and then fly away.
Congratulations! Quest Complete!
