Reanimation Liquid in Graveyard Keeper 2

One Reanimation Liquid is what a Resurrection Table burns every time you raise a zombie in Graveyard Keeper 2, and you either buy it for a base 7 silver or brew it from three alchemy ingredients. The wiki and the press article agree on the brew’s rune total but not on how you reach it, so both accounts are kept apart below.

Reanimation liquid, in four points

It is a consumable, spent once per raise, and the early game hands you enough of it to stop buying for a while.

Community wiki page

Uma garrafa por zumbi erguido

Every zombie raised on a Resurrection Table uses exactly one Reanimation Liquid, with the body, the collar and Faith on top. Community wiki data, unconfirmed as of October 12, 2026.

Community wiki page

7 pratas base, ou sete garrafas grátis

The Alchemist stocks it from the start at a base 7 silver, and seven bottles sit free in chests: two Old Mine, two Sawmill, three Resurrection Lab. Community wiki data, unconfirmed as of October 12, 2026.

Community wiki page + press article

Destilar é uma soma de runas, não uma receita fixa

The wiki rule is any three ingredients whose runes total 2 red, 1 green and 4 blue, plus one Alchemy Flask per brew. The press names clay, alcohol and salt instead. Reported, unconfirmed as of October 12, 2026.

Creator video

A garrafa é apenas um de quatro portões

A raise also needs a corpse, a collar and Faith, and the first collars are bronze. A creator video says bronze caps a zombie at five red skulls. Reported, unconfirmed as of October 12, 2026.

The consumable

What one zombie costs to raise

The Resurrection Table takes four things at once, and only one of them is the bottle.

Liquid per zombie: One bottle per raise, with no partial or reused bottle.
Stack size and bags: It stacks to 20 and fits the Alchemist’s bag, the Universal bag and the Big universal bag.
The other three inputs: A body, a collar and Faith, so bottles are potential raises rather than workers.
Its value as research: One bottle studied costs 20 Science and pays +30 red, +50 green and +25 blue tech points.

Creator video

A bronze collar caps the zombie at five red skulls

The first collars are bronze, and a creator video states bronze locks a zombie at five red skulls; golden collars are what unlock ten. Reported, unconfirmed as of October 12, 2026.

Community wiki page

A fé é nomeada mas nunca quantificada

The wiki lists Faith beside the body and the collar as what a resurrection requires, and never says what a raise costs in Faith.

Community wiki page

The corpse and the collar set the ceiling

Skull counts come from the body and the collar rather than the fluid, so identical bottles raise very different workers.

The bottle count, stack size and Study Table payout are community wiki data, unconfirmed as of October 12, 2026. The five-red-skull bronze cap is a creator’s claim: reported, unconfirmed as of October 12, 2026.

The buy route

7 silver from the Alchemist, and seven bottles for free

The early game hands you enough liquid for your first nine zombies without brewing.

Source	What it gives	Caveat
The Alchemist, from the start	Base 7 silver, sold from the start	Stock rises to 5, then 10, then 10 as his trader level rises
Gunter	Base 7 silver, plus 3 per restock from trader level 2	The press says he runs out, so he is not a standing supply
Chests at the start of the game	Seven free bottles: 2 Old Mine, 2 Sawmill, 3 Resurrection Lab	One-off pickups; nothing says whether they respawn
The quest Personal Zombie Zone	Two more free bottles	With the seven, enough for your first nine zombies

This table is community wiki data, unconfirmed as of October 12, 2026, except Gunter selling out: reported, unconfirmed as of October 12, 2026. The 5/10/10 line is the only stock figure given, and it stops at trader level 2.

The brew route

Brewing: 2 red, 1 green, 4 blue — or clay, alcohol and salt

The rune total is the one figure the two accounts share; how you reach it is where they part company.

Community wiki data, unconfirmed as of October 12, 2026

The wiki: any three ingredients that add up

The wiki states that any three alchemy ingredients whose runes total exactly 2 red, 1 green and 4 blue brew one bottle, using one Alchemy Flask. It credits wikily.gg with counting 556 valid combinations, and notes Zombie Goo is worth 2 blue runes, so two goo cover the blue requirement.

Reported, unconfirmed as of October 12, 2026

The press article: clay, alcohol, salt, in that order

The press article names the ingredients instead: 1 clay, 1 alcohol and 1 salt, in that order, at a Laboratory II table in the Alchemy Lab, the tier that accepts three ingredients.

Ingredient	Where it comes from	Cost if bought
Clay	Clay spots, or crafted at the Clay Digger Stand	No price given
Alcohol	Crafted at a Distillation Cube, or bought from the Apothecary	50 bronze at the Apothecary
Salt	Crafted at Crematorium I or Crematorium II, or bought from the Apothecary or the Baker	20 bronze

The ingredient table and the clay/alcohol/salt list are the press article’s account: reported, unconfirmed as of October 12, 2026. A creator video gives a different alcohol route — beer, a clay urn and fuel in the distillation cube — without claiming it makes this bottle. Both sources tie the formula to the Necronomicon quest The Ingenious Gentleman Don Keyote; the press adds the Battle Potions II tech and 20 reputation with Gunter the Astrologer.

What a spare bottle is worth at the Study Table

Spare liquid converts into tech points, and the wiki gives the exchange exactly.

Community wiki page

20 Science in, three tech-point returns out

Studying one bottle at a Study Table costs 20 Science and returns +30 red, +50 green and +25 blue tech points — the wiki’s own numbers. Community wiki data, unconfirmed as of October 12, 2026.

Community wiki page

The bottle cannot do both jobs

A bottle you study is not one you raise a zombie with, so the two uses compete for the same stack.

Community wiki page

Stacking makes a reserve cheap

Bottles stack to 20 and fit the Alchemist’s bag, the Universal bag and the Big universal bag.

The 20 Science cost and the +30/+50/+25 returns are community wiki data, unconfirmed as of October 12, 2026. No second measurement exists, and nothing says whether the payout scales with the Study Table’s tier.

What is still unknown

The material treats the bottle as a purchase, a brew and a research item, and stops there.

Whether the seven free bottles come back: they sit in chests at the Old Mine, the Sawmill and the Resurrection Lab at the start, and nothing says whether those chests restock.
Whether the rune rule or the three named ingredients are authoritative. Both could hold if clay, alcohol and salt total 2 red, 1 green and 4 blue, which the material never confirms.
What the traders stock past trader level 2. Only the Alchemist’s 5/10/10 and Gunter’s 3 per restock are given.
Whether a different ingredient mix makes a different liquid. If the rune rule holds, hundreds of combinations reach 2/1/4 — the wiki cites 556 — and nothing says they yield the same bottle.
How much Faith a raise consumes. Faith is named as a requirement and never quantified.
When exactly the recipe unlocks: the quest, the Battle Potions II tech and 20 reputation with Gunter are all named, but not the order they must be cleared in.
Whether any of it survives patching. The 7-silver price, the free-bottle placements and the rune total are all reports dated October 12, 2026.

Reportagem Sportskeeda — How to make reanimation liquid in Graveyard Keeper 2? — A press guide captured in the 2026-10-12 research bundle. It is the only source that names the three ingredients (1 clay, 1 alcohol, 1 salt in that order), the Laboratory II table in the Alchemy Lab, the unlock chain (The Ingenious Gentleman Don Keyote, Battle Potions II, 20 reputation with Gunter) and the input prices (alcohol 50 bronze at the Apothecary, salt 20 bronze at the Apothecary or the Baker).

It is one player’s save, and the figures are quoted as stated.

Perguntas

Reanimation liquid questions

How do you get reanimation liquid in Graveyard Keeper 2?

Two ways. Buy it for a base 7 silver from the Alchemist, who has it from the start of the game, or from Gunter, who adds 3 per restock once his trader level reaches 2. Or brew it once the formula is unlocked, using one Alchemy Flask and three ingredients whose runes total 2 red, 1 green and 4 blue. Community wiki data, unconfirmed as of October 12, 2026.

How much reanimation liquid does one zombie need?

One bottle per raise. Every zombie created on a Resurrection Table consumes exactly one Reanimation Liquid, according to the community wiki, so nine zombies cost nine bottles. The table also demands a body, a collar and Faith. Community wiki data, unconfirmed as of October 12, 2026.

Do you need clay, alcohol and salt to brew it?

That is the press article’s recipe: 1 clay, 1 alcohol and 1 salt, in that order at a Laboratory II table. The community wiki describes the same brew differently — any three ingredients whose runes total 2 red, 1 green and 4 blue — so the two accounts are not interchangeable. Reported, unconfirmed as of October 12, 2026.

Where do the brewing ingredients come from?

Clay is gathered from clay spots or crafted at the Clay Digger Stand. Alcohol is crafted at a Distillation Cube or bought from the Apothecary for 50 bronze. Salt is crafted at Crematorium I or Crematorium II, or bought from the Apothecary or the Baker for 20 bronze. Reported, unconfirmed as of October 12, 2026.

Is a bottle the only thing you need to raise a zombie?

No. The Resurrection Table also needs a body, a collar and Faith, and the first collars are bronze. A creator video says bronze collars cap a zombie at five red skulls, so early zombies cannot exceed five no matter how many bottles you hold. Reported, unconfirmed as of October 12, 2026.

Can you study reanimation liquid instead of spending it?

Yes. Studying one bottle at a Study Table costs 20 Science and returns +30 red, +50 green and +25 blue tech points. It is a one-bottle trade: a bottle you study is not a bottle you raise a zombie with. Community wiki data, unconfirmed as of October 12, 2026.
