Will he be able to liberate his people from the nightmare of fear that has defined their lives for so long. An Arabic folklore the Ghoul is usually depicted as a fearsome merciless creature that eats people up. A long time ago, stories about the ghoul were told to children on winter nights around a fire. They stimulated their imagination and put a face to their innermost fears acting as a catharsis of sorts. Sadly some parents quickly took the easy way and utilized the fear of the Ghoul to make their children behave saying to their kids: "If you do not behave then the ghoul will come and gobble you up."etc..thus giving the Ghoul a bad reputation as a mythical figure for writers to utilize in children literature. Until this day we find that many teachers and parents refuse to pick up a book about the Ghoul for their children think
