History:
Ghoul was a supernatural creature – a human being corrupted by magical forces that feasts on human flesh. At some point Ghoul fled the Earth to the extra-dimensional realm of New Salem, a refuge for magical creatures. He joined a group called the Seven established by the sorceress Zhoe Kahn who wanted to take over the Earth. Kahn had hoped that her son Reese would join the group, but Reese – also known as the Hellion Conjur, joined them only to find out what their plans were, and ultimately, he and his team mates defeated the Seven. During the battle, Ghoul was crushed by Touch’s tactile telekinesis. Ghoul was not with the Seven when the group returned to attack the Hellions, and it seems likely that the injuries Touch inflicted killed him, although this has not been confirmed.
