Invoke despair with shelter by ghost
I played invoke despair against an opponent who had a sheltered by ghosts attached to their creature. Instead of the creature leaving then looking for an enchantment the game chose sheltered by ghost for the enchantment. And I only got to draw one card instead of two.

After the creature gets sacrificed, Sheltered by Ghosts stays on the battlefield until state based actions are checked, which is only after Invoke Despair has FULLY RESOLVED. State based actions are not checked in the middle of an object resolving. Meaning, it is around, though not attached to anything, when Invoke Despair demands the sacrifice of an enchantment. And is thus a valid choice for that.

Also they only had the one creature with sheltered by ghost on it on their battlefield.
