Stories of ghouls originate in the Middle East sometime during the Middles Ages. Tales of these undead beings then travelled to Europe where they quickly became a subject in literature. The ghoul has many different traits, including shapeshifting and has often been used as a catch-all evil creature in horror from books to movies, video games, television and more.
On this episode of Weird World Weekly Matt and Dave find out exactly what a ghoul is and why we're still fascinated with them after all these years.
