We are All Very Familiar with BERNARD's GHOUL-Whose Rampage ran from 1947-1959!
But back in the Late 1930's-There was Another GHOUL-A 25 Stone-7' 3" Monster Who wore a
Sinister and Hideous Costume-Complete with a 'Sardonic' Grin!-In 1938 and 1939 he Appeared
at Top Arenas in The NORTH WEST-including The KINGS HALL BELLE VUE MANCHESTER
and The FREE TRADE HALL MANCHESTER!-This Colossal Creature was put in with the Very
Top Wrestlers of the Day-including-KARL REGINSKY-Who held The EUROPEAN HEAVYWEIGHT
Championship and Who Fought JACK SHERRY for his WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT Title!
The GHOUL Shocked the Wrestling World by Scoring a Win against REGINSKY- which No-One
expected-including KARL himself!
Some Promoters deemed This GHOUL far too 'Frightening' to Feature-and he was certainly
'Freakish'-but was also Possessed of Huge Strength!
Below I Share an Article Covering his Bout with REGINSKY at The TOWER NEW BRIGHTON
on WEDNESDAY 14TH SEPTEMBER 1938-and Reported on in The RINGSIDE Newspaper
8 Days Later!
MAIN MASK
Just came across another tall guy who could have played the Ghoul in my photo.
he had a 55 fight boxing career and then wrestled for a short time.
He has just the physique to be that Ghoul in the picture with Pojello.
Pettifer turned to wrestling in 1937.
