Ghoul School is an Imagineering NES action platformer with its high schooler Spike fighting ghouls invading his school with musical xylophone. The representation alternates hallway exploration and fixed pattern combat against school monsters in an original comic horror license formula. Honest for atypical NES platform fans, curiosity of the 8 bit Imagineering catalog.

Description
Horror action-adventure inside a haunted high school where Spike must wipe out a creature lurking below. Published by Electro Brain, released in 1992 in the USA on NES. Side-scrolling exploration, varied makeshift weaponry, transformed student monsters and a delightfully cheesy 1980s B-movie tone.

Collector interest

Published by Electro Brain in 1992, this title sits among the late, low-print NES releases, when the label backed a few niche projects during the console's decline. Its B-movie high-school horror theme and thin distribution make it a known target for hunters of American NES rarities, and the gap between loose cartridge and complete box reflects limited supply rather than great play quality.
