A constitution called the Prescript was adopted which provided for a national organization. The Genii, Hydras, Furies, Goblins, and Nighthawks were staff officers. The private members were called Ghouls. Sometimes it was called the Invisible Empire of Ku Klux Klan. Any white man over eighteen might be admitted to the Den after nomination by a member and strict investigation by a committee.
If you're here then you'll both need coffins, and that boy Berry Lawson that you coaxed away from his employer will hang with you. "Remember! Remember! "By order of the Grand Cyclops of the Den and his two Night Hawks, and in the presence of all the Ghouls, on the fifth night of the sixth Dark Moon!
Perhaps they called up the same association of ideas in Thorndyke's mind, for he remarked presently: "The newsvendor is abroad to-night like a bird of ill-omen. Something unusual has happened: some public or private calamity, most likely, and these yelling ghouls are out to feast on the remains. The newspaper men have a good deal in common with the carrion-birds that hover over a battle-field."
Such wreckers of the dead are the ghouls of our race; and never had they more faithful representatives than the two villains who, in due course, mingled with the invaders in the village, anxious to commence their depredations before even a single shot was fired. Barry, as already intimated, joined the expedition, and was now numbered among the invaders.

I was faint and giddy when we had looked over that one house, but the old man was not satisfied. He dragged me on to the roof and pointed eastwards.
The tall spectral forms and great crouching figures of the darkness, now proved to be the limbs and broken trunks of gigantic trees. With the misty light of the morning all the ghouls and goblins of the night left the lonely forest and retreated to their secret abodes until dusk would come again.
Lucille spoke with a weird earnestness, and a far-away look in her eyes, as if she actually realized the presence of ghouls and goblins. Mrs.
