Ohme (オーム) is the fourth boss from Ghouls 'n Ghosts, a gigantic worm-like monster that acts as the guardian of the demon gate in an underground lake that leads to the castle. The beast is immobile, but it has its offsprings do its work for it. Smaller maggots emerge out of its five exposed hearts, and long red worms crawl their way from underneath its skin. The only way it can be killed is if Arthur throws his weapons downward into its hearts, all the while avoiding the smaller creatures slithering around.
Ohme also appeared in Chapter 33 of Namco × Capcom as part of the background. It is not fought in this game.
In Ghosts 'n Goblins Resurrection, it appears as a miniboss. In this game it moves up and down and it don't launches its worms anymore.

Trivia[]
- Ohme's name and appearance appear to be based on Ohmu, a giant creature from the 1984 animated film Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind.
- The boss bears a strong resemblance, either in its design and the way it is fought, to the Crustacean Cruiser, a boss from Contra 4.
