In the early 1980s an inspired film 
concept was born — unleash an ultimate 
supernatural power on the city of New 
York and call upon the best comedic 
talent in Hollywood to save the day. 
Then, throw in great special eff ects 
and a talented director. Next 
comes the blockbuster fi lm that 
audiences have loved for thirty 
years Ghostbusters!
When strange paranormal incidents began 
occurring at Columbia University, the Paranormal 
Studies Department began to investigate. Despite 
their fi ndings, Dr. Peter Venkman, Dr. Ray Stantz, 
and Dr. Egon Spengler lost their funding and 
were thrown out. They regrouped and formed a 
paranormal detection and elimination service called 
Ghostbusters. Ray purchased an old ambulance that 
was transformed into their ghost-busting vehicle, the 
Ecto-1. Their fi rst assignment called on them to remove 
Slimer, a gluttonous apparition from the Sedgwick 
Hotel. After successfully completing the job, the team 
continued their work and their business grew, so they 
hired another team member, Winston Zeddemore.
