The spectral dragon is the upgrade of the bone dragon, the seventh-tier creature of the Necropolis in Heroes of Might and Magic V.

No single type of dragon gives up its bones to form a Spectral Dragon. Instead, these fell beasts are composed of the bones of every breed of dragon, cunningly arranged into a single skeleton and infused with unlife by the sacrifice of a high-ranking Necromancer's soul.OffBck

Spectral dragons have significantly higher damage than bone dragons, though only slightly more health, and they are still badly outmatched by all other seventh-tier creatures on a per-unit basis. Spectral dragons compensate for this by being relatively cheap, having a higher weekly growth via a Dragon Vault, being undead (which makes them immune to many debilitating effects such as Mind-related magic), and through their Death Stare and Cursing Attack.
