A '''Ghoul Guy''' is a gray [[Boo Guy]] that lives in [[Shroob Castle]] in the game ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''. They attack in the same manner as their Boo Guy counterparts, albeit quicker and stronger. In battle, a Ghoul Guy rolls into [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]], inflicting damage. Before a Ghoul Guy attacks, it splits into two transparent copies: one real, one fake. As the Boo Guy, only the real Ghoul Guy can attack. The Ghoul Guy points to the Mario brother it will attack.
