Ghoul
Ghoul is a tag for books featuring ghouls—supernatural creatures often associated with graveyards, death, and the consumption of human flesh. Originating from Middle Eastern folklore, ghouls are commonly portrayed in fiction as undead beings, flesh-eaters, or shape-shifting monsters, inhabiting dark, eerie settings like crypts, ruins, or haunted lands.
Stories with this tag often explore themes of death, horror, fear of the unknown, survival, and the boundary between life and death. Ghouls may serve as terrifying antagonists, tragic figures, or even complex protagonists, appearing in horror, dark fantasy, supernatural thrillers, and urban fantasy.
The Ghoul tag appeals to readers who enjoy macabre, atmospheric tales filled with dread, mystery, and encounters with creatures that dwell in the shadows, offering a chilling glimpse into the monstrous and the morbid.
