Forbidden Crypt

Enchantment    (CMC:5)

For each card you would draw, instead choose target card in your graveyard and put it into your hand. If you cannot, you lose the game. Whenever a card is put into your graveyard, remove that card from the game.

The second ability is a replacement effect, not a triggered ability. The card never gets to the graveyard.

If more than one card is being drawn due to a single effect, apply the replacement as if the cards were being drawn one at a time.
