"Find me cards equivalent to: Shadow of the Grave"

Cards similar to Shadow of the Grave (black instant that returns discarded/cycled cards this turn) are rare, but here are some related black instants:
1. Yawgmoth's Will — lets you play cards from your graveyard this turn (not just discarded/cycled, and it's a sorcery, but very close in function).
2. Night's Whisper — not a recursion spell, but in black, recursion for just-discarded/cycled cards is unique to Shadow of the Grave.
3. Grim Discovery — an instant that returns a creature and land, not equivalent, but closest among black instants.


Reason:
Shadow of the Grave is unique in its effect and speed (instant), especially with relation to cycling/discarding this turn. Most black recursion is slower or less specific.

Example card referencing graveyard recursion: Grim Discovery
Type: Instant
Text: Choose one or both — Return target creature card from your graveyard to your hand; and/or return target land card from your graveyard to your hand.

TL;DR: Shadow of the Grave is almost unique; Yawgmoth's Will and Grim Discovery are only partial equivalents.

    Rules

  • If an effect asks you to discard a card, you can’t “discard” something that is in your graveyard. Those cards are not in your hand. Thus, Cycling abilities of cards in the graveyard can’t be activated.
  • If you cast a Buyback spell, then there will be two effects trying to replace where the card goes. You get to choose if the Buyback returns the card to your hand or the card gets exiled.
  • If you play a card using Yawgmoth’s Will and something triggers only when “cast from your hand”, that something will not trigger. Such things trigger based on where the card came from.
  • It will exile itself since it goes to the graveyard after its effect starts.
  • The second ability creates a replacement effect. It applies to both costs and effects.
  • To “play a card” is to either cast a spell or to put a land onto the battlefield using the main phase special action.
  • You cannot Suspend a card from your graveyard, only your hand.

    Until end of turn, you may play lands and cast spells from your graveyard. If a card would be put into your graveyard from anywhere this turn, exile that card instead.
