Line 25:
* In the anime/manga series [[Hellsing]], ghouls are zombie-like creatures that are created when a vampire drains the blood of someone who is [[Virgin Power|not a virgin]]. If fatally wounded, they instantly crumble to dust. They are under the control of the vampire who bites them, eat human flesh, and are ''just'' intelligent enough to use firearms but little else.
* In ''[[Tsukihime]]'', "ghoul" is a stage of turning into a vampire, between the mindless "living dead" (a zombie, for all intents and purposes) and a full-fledged vampire.
* In ''[[Rosario to+ Vampire]]'' [[Ordinary High School Student]] Tsukune is temporarily able to become a vampire and defend himself if his girlfriend's [[Super-Powered Evil Side|Superpowered Badass Side]] injects him with her blood. {{spoiler|However, he later finds out that doing this too much results in him becoming a ghoul and losing his sanity. He eventually gains a method of using his ghoul powers without losing his mind. A ghoul apparently has all the power of a vampire, but none of the [[Weaksauce Weakness|weaknesses]], making it potentially the most powerful kind of monster.}}
* In ''[[Blue Exorcist]]'', Ghouls are lesser demons possessing the corpses of human and animals.
