Haste is a status and a monster-only spell that gives the user said status.

A separate spell (Haste Other) allows monsters to give the haste status to other creatures. However, fairly few monsters possess it, and no monsters have both spells at once. The separation between the two monster spells and the resultant inability of dread liches and deep elf sorcerers to haste their summons is more of an artifact of the way monster spellcasting is implemented than a mercy on the part of the developers.

- Prior to 0.20, haste would cause hunger over time.
- Prior to 0.19, Haste was a level 6 Charms spell available to players; the player version allowed you to target either yourself or another creature, but would increase your magic contamination while active. It has since been removed from the spells players have access to, but potions of haste produce a similar effect.
- Prior to 0.8, Haste made all actions twice as fast.
- In very early versions of Crawl it was a level 8 spell: magic contamination did not yet exist, meaning that this spell could be spammed with no downsides other than food costs, so it merited being a higher level.
