Good mourning, beasties. My page has been feeling a bit dour recently, so I’d like to switch it up a bit and praise one of Monster High’s brightest ghouls. Ghoulia Yelps is simply a cut above the rest. All the whole brain bread she eats must go straight to her head because she’s the only ghoul who can ace even Mr. Rotter’s hardest tests.And while she’s slowly lumbering through the hallways long after everyone else has made it to class, Ghoulia sees things that the rest of us are too busy to notice. Like Cleo de Nile crying in a bathroom stall, and Clawdeen jumping anytime a ghoul mentions Toralei’s name. Maybe she knows what has happened to all the missing students?If you ask me, Ghoulia Yelps would make an excellent Crier.–XOXO CryptCrier
