]I don't know if anyone's mentioned this, but arn't zombies that eat flesh
]vaugly resemblant of ghouls? Wouldn't that workjust as well?

I don't think so. Ghouls are a metahuman variant. They
are alive, sentient, and intelligent (well, the wild ones are
alive at least). The whole Day of the Dead thing is
concentrating on nasty-bads who are dead. Also, ghouls
eat dead people, the Dead eat living brains.
Which brings to mind a funny thought...I can just see
a ghoul biting into supper, and then supper biting into him.
