UPDATED: This article has been updated with prices as of Monday, October 14, 2024. Overlord of the Hauntwoods has jumped up to $30 and is nearly tied with Abhorrent Oculus as the most expensive card in the set. Overlord of the Balemurk continues to rise this week, and is now up to $22. The verge lands are also spiking in value, with Gloomlake Verge reaching $10+.
Duskmourn: House of Horror has finally been released! Now that we’ve gotten a chance to play with these new Magic: The Gathering cards at prerelease, many players want to know what the big money cards from the set are.
Duskmourn: House of Horror will not have any serialized cards; however, it will have a new Double Exposure card treatment as well as the new Japan Showcase style with and without the fracture foil treatment. There will also be textured foil cards, Mirror Monster cards, Paranormal Frame cards, Lurking Evil cards, Extended art, Borderless art, and of course, traditional foil cards. You can read the full details on each of these styles and where to find them here from MTG.
For this listicle, we will only be looking at the traditional regular frame non-foil MTG cards. That way, you can see what are truly the chase rares and most valuable cards from Duskmourn, based on the power of the cards rather than on their treatment. We will also not be looking at any of the cards from Commander precons. These are just the cards from booster packs that will be legal in Standard.
With all that said, here are the most expensive cards from Duskmourn so far:

Preorders for singles typically start high and decrease dramatically over the first few weeks of a set’s release as product becomes more widely available. There’s always a premium to pay for being the first to have access to a new card.
