Tiny, toilet-dwelling demons wreak havoc in the cult-classic Ghoulies horror-comedy series. Here's how to watch all four creature features in order.

Ghoulies is a 1980s creature-feature franchise famous for its pint-sized demons and the unforgettable image of a Ghoulie popping out of a toilet. Blending horror and camp, the series spans four films as the little monsters terrorize everyone from occultists to frat houses.

๐Ÿ• Release Order

Release order keeps the creature chaos in sequence.

  1. Ghoulies (1985)
  2. Ghoulies II (1988)
  3. Ghoulies III: Ghoulies Go to College (1991)
  4. Ghoulies IV (1994)

The sequels are loosely connected, so story chronology mostly follows release order.

๐Ÿ“– Story Chronology

Story chronology broadly matches release order, with each film unleashing the Ghoulies in a new setting, from a carnival to a college campus.

  1. Ghoulies (1985)
  2. Ghoulies II (1988)
  3. Ghoulies III: Ghoulies Go to College (1991)
  4. Ghoulies IV (1994)

Which Order Should You Choose?

Start with the 1985 original for the full origin of the little demons, then continue through the sequels for escalating camp. Ghoulies II is a fan favorite thanks to its carnival setting. Release order is the way to enjoy this cult series in all its schlocky glory.
