Ghoul

From Witcher Wiki

After the Great War, necrophages generally grew bolder and multiplied in the Northern Kingdoms. Ghouls are the most common corpse-eaters and usually roam around in packs. For a ghoul, a living human is raw material that must be processed before it can become a meal. Shredded to pieces with fangs and claws, the human corpse should then be left to age.

[edit] Journal Entry

"Ghouls are said to have been humans who were once forced into cannibalism and, after many years spent in dark crypts, underwent a horrifying transformation. Only human flesh can satisfy their eternal hunger, so they kill people and store the remains in the recesses of their lairs."

[edit] Details

Class: Necrophage Occurrence: Ghouls are encountered on battlefields, as well as in cemeteries and abandoned crypts Immunity: Resistant to common poisons Susceptibility: Sensitive to silver and Necrophage Oil; the Strong Style is most efficient against ghouls; experienced witchers use the Group Style while fighting multiple ghouls Tactics: A group of ghouls will try to knock an opponent down, surround him and start eating him alive Alchemy: Abomination lymph, white vinegar, and ghoul blood

• In Act I, an "Old woman" will tell Geralt about Ghouls in exchange for food. The conversation does result in a bestiary entry.
• Spending a Bronze talent on the Monster Lore option adds bestiary entries for Graveirs, Ghouls, Drowners and Barghests.
• The Tome of Fear and Loathing, volume I

[edit] Notes

• In the Prologue, Lambert claims the Fast Style is best to use against ghouls, but the conversation does not result in a bestiary entry. His suggestion contradicts the official bestiary's entry above which claims the Strong Style is best against ghouls.
