Though still slow, they are much more sturdy compared to the two zombie variants before them and can rise from opened Caskets in Catacombs.

Trivia[]
- While Ghouls appear at the end of Act I, they have Act II Treasure Class C which determines what items they can drop.
- Ghouls are much stronger than normal Zombies in the second game, but back in Diablo I they were only a bit stronger variants of Zombies.
