Description:
Ghouls haunt graveyards, battlefields, and other places rich with the carrion they hunger for. These terrible creatures lurk whereever the stench of death hangs heavy, ready to devour the unwary. Ghouls are said to be created on the death of a living man or woman who savored the taste of the flesh of people. This may or may not be true, but it does explain the disgusting behavior of these anthropophagous undead. Some believe that anyone of exceptional debauchery and wickedness runs the risk of becoming a ghoul.
