Creature — Zombie Wizard   {3}{U}{B} (CMC:5)

{1}: You may cast target creature card in a graveyard this turn. When you cast that card this turn, Havengul Lich gains all activated abilities of that card until end of turn.

Fusing intelligence with the power of undeath requires inspiration of the darkest kind.

Havengul Lich's activated ability creates a delayed triggered ability that triggers when you cast the creature card. This triggered ability will go on the stack on top of the creature spell and will resolve before the creature spell will.

If you don't cast the creature card that turn, Havengul Lich won't gain any of its abilities.
1/22/2011
Havengul Lich gains the activated abilities of the card while that card is still a spell on the stack.
4/15/2013
Havengul Lich's ability changes the zone you are permitted to cast the card from, not the times you are permitted to cast it. You can cast a creature card that has been targeted by Havengul Lich from the graveyard, but unless it has flash, you can only do so if it's your main phase, the stack is empty, and you have priority.
