      Yeah, I can’t think of a more apt word tho…

      Demon has religious connotation which I try to avoid, but maybe that would piss off the Christian zealots… idk…

      Monster is non-denominational, but doesn’t seem has potent as “ghoul”…

      Either way, these freaks are deranged… yearning to see people tortured is fucked beyond understanding, but especially so when it’s a victimless crime.

      That’s very true. Another great thing about ghoul is the adjective is just as good.

      I googled for synonyms to see what I got…

      • banshee
      • bogeyman
      • cacodemon (a malevolent spirit or person)
      • demon
      • devil
      • fiend
      • ghost
      • goblin
      • monster
      • spirit
      • vampire
      • wraith

      Edit

      I think the best solution is if a load word from another language becomes popular.
