The untold history of a backyard legend.
The PoolGhoul is more than just a campfire story. For decades, whispers of this elusive figure have rippled through communities like waves on a quiet night. From pool parties that ended with cold splashes and missing goggles to surveillance videos showing distorted shadows moving through chlorinated waters, the mystery has only deepened.
This site was created by a small group of friends who grew up sharing PoolGhoul tales in whispered tones. What started as a joke quickly became a serious investigation when strange occurrences began happening in our own backyards. Unexplainable water levels, phantom splashes, pool toys vanishing — we realized we weren’t alone.
What makes the PoolGhoul so intriguing is not just the stories, but the consistency of the sightings. People from all over the country — many with no connection to each other — report similar experiences. Wet footprints that lead nowhere. The strong scent of chlorine lingering in locked basements. Muffled laughter around closed public pools.
We believe in preserving the folklore, collecting the facts, and keeping the fun alive. Whether you're a PoolGhoul truther, a curious skeptic, or someone who just loves a good urban legend, you're welcome here. Dive into the pages, and maybe you'll come out with a few goosebumps of your own.
Our goal is simple: document the myth, connect the dots, and keep the chlorine-soaked lore of the PoolGhoul alive for future generations.
