It also has the dubious distinction of being the biggest flop in Rare's history. The name is a pun on the British slang goolies, meaning testicles.

Ghoulies starred a young teenager named Cooper who set out to rescue his girlfriend, Amber, from Ghoulhaven Hall.

Ghoulies also had a mini-crossover with another Rare franchise, Banjo-Kazooie, via the small cameo by Roysten the goldfish.
