Rollin

Named after the Soul Coughing song, this was my swing at a Cleric deck.

3 Soul Warden
1 Auriok Champion
1 Ghost Council of Orzhova
2 Orzhov Pontiff
3 Cabal Archon
3 Vile Deacon
2 Headhunter
1 Rotlung Reanimator
1 Doubtless One
2 Edgewalker
3 Order of Whiteclay
4 Kor Sanctifiers

4 Grave Pact

8 Plains
1 Starlit Sanctum
3 Salt Flats
8 Swamp
4 Caves of Koilos

2 Skulltap
4 Living Death

But really, it's a Living Death deck, right? You could probably stick a lot of tribal creatures in here and be happy. The Grave Pact is there to ensure that when I do cast Living Death, my opponent doesn't come out ahead. 

Still, it could be better; there's a lot of one-offs, there are likely mana issues, Vile Deacon is really expensive and I don't have any way to protect it, Skulltap can now be replaced with Village Rites, that sort of thing.

There's also the clear desire for this deck to have more copies of Rotlung Reanimator which butts up against my desire to not pay $10 for a single card. However, there are a lot more 'died' effects than there used to be, and new clerics from Zendikar Rising, so this is a prime time to do an upgrade!
