Ghoul School on NES - Erin Plays

[@StevenQBeatz]

This is one of those "so bad it's good" games. The main theme is a banger too! lol

[@RetroGamesNow86]

oh we're in Erin's cosplay era now!

[@chrisscruggs2545]

Never even heard of this! I agree, seems like a great premise for a game. I love all the random “horror” games on the NES

[@db4life925]

Love the costume Erin. Always enjoy you and mikes content. Never played ghoul school before ill have to try it on my emulator.

[@ErinPlays]

Thanks!

[@chubbycatfish4573]

I can just tell this was made by the same people who made the NES Simpsons games.

[@AdamBarkerThe]

This is actually one of my favorite nes games even though it’s not great technically. It’s probably my earliest introduction to survival horror lol.

[@MazokuRanma]

I managed to beat this game on my own as a kid, the way you keep what you find definitely makes it much easier. It's definitely not a good game, but I still enjoy playing it.

[@BrianBates128]

Man this game was a frustrating but fun rental. I always wanted to beat it.

[@mikesilva3868]

😊I played ghoul school at a neighbor's home I was 9 in 1993 it was fun to play

[@nufi20]

The outfits are getting cooler by the episode

[@sgtmajor5700]

Erin is too ghoul for school.

[@namynikki]

what a cool fantasy! It looks really good on you! This game is so funny, but I never had the patience to play it for a long time

[@Raw-guitar]

Erin would make a great Kindergarten teacher.

[@ThunderFist1978]

As long as she doesn’t start swearing. To be honest, it would seem weird to me now if she didn’t.

[@EugeneAxe]

This game gives me Simpsons vs. Space Mutants vibes.

[@AlencarFaulkner]

Being unable to crouch seems like a problem. Though, playing as a punk defeating aliens, I would've loved this as a kid. Wonderful costume, by the way.

[@IsiahTomas]

0:15, Okay. Spike. Lol. ... that was a good laugh. Thank you. Carry on.

[@GameSack]

There was a Genesis game that was cancelled called Zombie High that this reminds me a lot of. I reviewed the Proto many years ago. I remember it being hard as hell. The ROM is out there.

[@ErinPlays]

Oh sweet- I’ll have to look that up 👀

[@jamierose9095]

This is a tough video game. Monsters trying to kill you, thrash you, rip you to pieces. If you wanna make it in here, you really gotta know where your towel is.

[@tonydeluna8095]

I love your costume Erin! You look amazing!

[@ErinPlays]

Thank you so much!!

[@steveobaby6048]

Erin doesn't the one-eyed monster look like from Pee-wee's playhouse

[@jscotthatcher380]

now i wish i rented this game back in the day. i had no idea it looked this good and fun.

[@haircafekevin]

It reminds me of Monster Party on the NES except not as good.

[@retromacman620]

I think the aesthetic is just so cool, and I agree the premise is very neat. As an artist I dabbled a lot with game engines years ago trying to find one where I could really just make a simple platformer like this and focus on creating assets and characters... this kinda reminds me of that. You're videos are so fun! ❤

[@jublywubly]

Wooh. I love these type of Halloween type games. I'll have to find this to play on my Pandora Box arcade machine! Thanks for making this video! 😁

[@ErinPlays]

Thanks for watching!

[@puertoriconnect4611]

I love this! Never heard of this game. And love the hoodie. I def gotta get one like that

[@MrGamer07100]

It makes me wanna see how the rest of the game is. Seem like you always cover obscure retro games.

[@jonpower9728]

"I don't even know how I found the gym!" What I tell myself when I'm surprised with a gym membership bill I have no memory of signing up for!

[@poposterous236]

This is a PERFECT concept for a B-movie.

[@chadm5364]

There is a great 80s movie called Ghoul School. Nothing related to the game and it's zombie based (no aliens), but it's one of my favorite movies of all time. The atmosphere alone is phenomenal. Honestly there might be some inspiration from one or the other. The bouncing basketballs are accurate lol.

[@XxZannexX]

Hey Erin, I wonder in the monkey auto room. Where the wall you couldn’t get past. If you needed to take off your spring shoes? It looked like you could just squeeze underneath without them. Great vid, enjoy the spookiness.

[@Riz2336]

Dig the green hair my favorite color. Being a kid who grew up on NES I never played this one

[@theshakyproject2971]

Zombies Ate My Neighbors is one of my all-time favorite games! I could never get my hands on this one. :)

[@theshakyproject2971]

Oops! I was thinking of Ghoul Patrol! Never mind! :)

[@jarredkrum9894]

Someone stole my zombies ate my neighbors game and left me the empty box. Someday ill find a copy of that for my box cuz box is in perfect condition. Loved that game

[@jarredkrum9894]

Its a sequel to zombies but wasnt as good but still both were fun

[@racyagentmac]

Love ur vids specially ur scary video game ones ❤ they're so wholesome 😅

[@HolyAssassinX]

Ghoul School made Erin a fool. That rhymed

[@winterburden]

Thanks for this neat spooky review Erin!

[@vytalman]

This reminds me of Bart vs Space Mutants.

[@04StartyCornRainbowOnline88]

Never heard of that game until i've been watching Little Mixer playing it. Am... you did it well. What a COOL costume you're wearing. 😋

[@fusionspace175]

I'm having flashbacks to when I first unlocked Reptile and Jade in Mortal Kombat. It's not easy being green, but you make it work, ghoul(girl).

[@kri249]

Man this game looks brutal. It's got that 80s highschool teen horror movie feel to it that I like, and would have made a great movie if made back then. Also, I know it would breach a license, but I like to imagine an 8 bit Freddy grabbing you from those TVs on the wall and saying, "Welcome to prime time, bitch!"

[@daytimesky]

Liking the premise is sometimes all it takes to get into an obscure game. I know that feeling! I've enjoyed games that arguably are pretty bad simply because I really loved the concept behind them.

[@ositox5659]

It does look like an addicting game. The 1st part looks like a major slog, though! Love your green hair!

[@ChrizardsAdventures]

I need some Halloween content in my life rn

[@jasonalexander5491]

awesome ghoul school video erin!!!!!!!!

[@kenwheeler3637]

The holiday season is upon us again and Halloween is my favorite out of the entire lot. I've been binging all of your horror themed vids, Erin and I'm so glad to see a brand new one. Ghoul School is an interesting but quite frustrating game. I've never really put a lot of time into beating it but after seeing this vid I think I'll give it another try. 💀🧟🧟‍♂🧟‍♀

[@HolyAssassinX]

Awwww Erin that's soo adorable I love it!

[@MM12684]

Hypnotic music in this one

[@DigitalPhreak765]

I like how you cosplayed for Ghoul School on Nes Erin 😊😊

[@LoneWolf_Cub_Ogami_Itto]

I would LOVE a MetroidVania of thr 1979 film Phantasm, or more so the sequels playing as Reggie. With Dimensional forkway would be map teleporters

[@orcboy925]

Dude I loved that game wish I still had it.

[@qqq1701]

I like your bones. They didn't have this one anywhere I rented games and I never heard of it back then.

[@JamieKitchens6]

Lookin' like a fool in tha Ghoul School! LOL.

[@luismedeiros8005]

We all have to agree that most of NES games got the "bricks" virus since Super Mario Bros. You can count by your fingers the games that don't have bricks on their design. Lol

[@anthonywheeler2082]

Great costume Erin! I would play this game too

[@6lu5ky86]

Omg you're so cute! Happy Halloween y'all! The weather is overcast and perfectly spooky!

[@szopaj]

Wet towel as weapon. Nice one!

[@JustinEvitable80]

2:17 "That's the Goal." In Ghoul School. Wait, now I'm confused.

[@davechance9848]

It makes me want to try it again I played this a couple times but was unsure where to go and what to do so I didn't get far

[@Hexphile]

The design is giving a huge Bart vs. The Space Mutants vibe.

[@HackTheMovies]

I would simply transfer out of the ghoul school.

[@ErinPlays]

That would be the logical thing to do, but logic doesn't always work here on Erin Plays.

[@stingwcw]

Love the costume. Great video, as you always do

[@photon_EARTH]

Erin’s too ghoul for school 👻🤓

[@MuppetLord1]

Adorable costume. :)

[@JoeFpoc]

Never even heard of this game. Probably would have loved it as a kid

[@MotherKojiro]

What a lovely shade of green! I think your description of this game is pretty accurate; it's not good, exactly, but there's something just fascinating about it. For me, I think it's all the little rooms that don't always have anything interesting or necessary, but act as weird little vignettes of sorts; I've always liked that sort of thing in games, but it's pretty rare, in my experience. I played through this at my sister's house once, but there's a lot I don't remember, including that weird auto shop with the monkeys.

[@democrazy69]

This game seems like a Zelda 2 rom hack.

[@Davey_Cakes]

There's a recent indie game called Tres-Bashers which totally gives off a similar vibe.

[@UnknownXero]

It always makes my day when I learn about a game I never knew of as a kid. Awesome green hair

[@megadan2988]

looks like a game that would require the instruction manual

[@bobbyo5807]

Very cool plus you can tell there's some possible Link2/Faxanadu/Monster Party influence here(as well as some other games too really)👍Monster party especially is great for the season right now🎃Sweet! 🎮

[@NMC_1980]

Are you channeling a Sailor Neptune skeleton or are you a new member of Cobra Kai(the movie version of course)? I really like your cosplays, they're always great. Also this game looks like a pain in the ass more so than a bad game, it looks playable if you have patience, I like the music too.

[@allluckyseven]

In the "wrench monkeys" room, you should've removed the spring shoes. Then you would've been able to go under the car elevator.

[@ErinPlays]

Yeah I realized that once I was editing it, lol. Oops! I'll have to try again.

[@gamerdude2023]

This game actually seems pretty ghoul

[@ty_the_RetoVideo_guy5543r]

Anyone getting Bart vs. the Space Mutants form this game?

[@Darth_Nerd]

I truly love Erin! ❤❤ just makes the best videos ever!

[@leroyvisiongames2294]

This game kinda reminds me of European-developed PC platformers because of all the puzzle solving elements.

[@lfgubrs]

Are those suppose to be "grease monkeys" lol

[@The-Flute-Wizard]

FANTASTIC as usual, rockin costume choice as well! yay for Spoopy Month

[@Nelson_Win]

It's Franken ERIN!! 💚💚💚💚

[@johnlewisbrooks]

Hitting the TV gives you health lol

[@jeffdavis6657]

Keeping with the theme, have you done Ghost Manor for the TG16?

[@ErinPlays]

No I haven’t yet.

[@jeffdavis6657]

@ErinPlays As you likely know it is a weird little game.

[@johnpettigrew3056]

I've never played that one and it doesn't look like a bad game but the director was definitely a Zelda II fan 😁

[@connorgreenwell5731]

Thank you for the great video! Cool costume too! Happy Halloween!

[@zeliardforty-two4692]

Saw the title card and a new costume and I never clicked so fast! Skeleton costumes are so underrated, and the game would have earned a few rentals at least! It gets points for not making the player start from scratch every game over

[@clearlypellucid]

OK, this game is so obviously running on the Bart vs the Space Mutants engine it's crazy.

[@johnmirabella1329]

Love the green hair 😊

[@powerviolence29]

A punk saving a cheerleader seems weird but I'm glad a punk is the hero Character

[@ebwarg]

Complimentary hair! …or she’s hoping the color will remind Elmo less of fire…

[@mikesilva3868]

😊❤😊great nes game i got up to the weight room couldn't beat it

[@supergeoff]

I was thinking of someone else with Green hair and a Pinstripe Suit anyway Hi Erin

[@grabngooo]

Dude she’s just as fake as zap Cristal lol

[@carterconway7272]

Love your Costume Erin.

[@Arcodus]

Holy moly, Erin, you are all skin and bones! You need to eat TWO burgers tonight, Doctor's orders!

[@sfighter0085]

I think I saw this game at my old "Play n' Trade", I never bought it. Honestly, the game's box art looks like it came right from a movie. In fact, I bet it would make for a fun PG horror comedy. As for the game itself, looks decent, probably gonna need a strategy guide though. lol

[@dannyg3901]

yes spooky season!

[@danteperry7692]

That's a Great Looking Outfit Erin such a Beautiful Costume I Love it.

[@orwwan]

That game looks cool 😅😂😂😂

[@Spawn3X5]

Looks needlessly tideous

[@Mati87]

love the hair

[@segaoldschoolsega925]

Call him the stalleto

[@marienkaefer1660]

An excellent game for Halloween. I also love your outfit; the skeleton suit is a personal favorite, and the green wig brings it all together: good looking. Also I would love to see a lets play for Castlevania Order of Ecclessia. It is my top five of Castlevania games and I feel it is very slept on. Thank you for the videos; they never fail to bring a smile to my face.😄📺🎮🧛

[@ErinPlays]

Thank you! And I haven't played that Castlevania game yet but I will eventually :)

[@MarshallFlores]

Love the hair!

[@jessehaaland7689]

It's like astynax!

[@ErinPlays]

Haha kind of, yeah!

[@KingHenryVR4]

Funny when I started watching the video I noticed the thumbs up counter is at 666.
