Description

here’s a guy who doesn’t get much publicity online yet! GHOULIE BB, or the ghoul… or greg. this guy’s a cryptid born to a perfectly normal average human family, and after a few short years of failing to meet his very unusual needs, they set him free in the woods so he could be himself. occasionally his human siblings drop by to have a picnic and usually try to keep tabs on him as best as they can. they’re the only ones who call him greg.

ghoulie’s part of a very small number of lanky humanoid creatures that exists solely to scavenge corpses, dig up graveyards, and creep people out if they catch a glimpse through the trees. he’s actually harmless and more likely to dig a hole in the ground to hide in than to attack anyone, which causes trouble when a “scientist” catches him for study. what follows is pretty much a monster horror movie, except greg gets out okay in the end. his hair is short because the scientist cut it all off :c and he wears tattered scrubs because the scientist put them on him.

ghoulie can’t talk much; he does make loud warbling noises deep in his throat when he’s scared, to warn potential threats away. he’s comfortable walking on all fours, and when standing up straight he’s about eight or nine feet tall. he normally smells like dirt and meat. prefers nighttime and tight spaces. his eyes shine in the dark, too. …imagine that walking toward you at midnight.

AND YET HE DOESN’T REALIZE HOW UNNERVING HE CAN BE so if you run from him, he’ll assume there’s something big and scary and he should run away, too.

Excuse me while I finish falling love. He's absolutely darling! I love his freckles and his expressive, cloudy eyes, and you did an amazing job showing his personality through his posture and his hands. I have to say I do like his short hair, though mostly because it looks so soft and feathery and whispy. Does he have the sharp teeth to go along with eating meat, or does he rely on it being mushy by the time he gets to it? Either way, I kinda just want to cuddle into his side and hold on.
