My Two Spenglers - Playmobil Ghostbusters 1 & 2 Egon Spengler Reviews

IDW Ghostbusters 101 Trade Paperback Book Review
By Paul Rudoff on Dec. 14, 2017 at 6:37 PM , Categories: Ghostbusters 1, Ghostbusters 2, Books, 2016 Parody Remake
Ghostbusters: Answer The Call (2016). Just the mere mention of the name can cause some people to froth at the mouth. No movie has ever been as polarizing as Paul Feig's disasterpiece. Hell, not even The Phantom Menace - with its "Mannequin" Skywalker,… more »

Official Ghostbusters Creative Assets
By Paul Rudoff on Feb. 20, 2017 at 11:30 PM , Categories: Ghostbusters 1, Ghostbusters 2, 2016 Parody Remake
It was all supposed to be simple. It was never supposed to be a lot of work. Unbeknownst to me at the time, back in October 2016, Ghost Corps and Sony released a bunch of "creative assets" for the Ghostbusters franchise on the official site at… more »
Paul's Ghostbusters II Alternate Scenes Theory

By Paul Rudoff on Oct. 18, 2015 at 7:42 PM , Categories: Spook Central, Ghostbusters 2, Real Ghostbusters, Music, Toys
A rather odd grouping of stuff for this Spook Central site update. The bulk of the update is that ALL of my Real Ghostbusters Animation Cels are now part of the site. Eventually, I'd like to identify every episode each cel comes from and find the final… more »
All Images Redone From Ghostbusters 1 & 2 Blu-rays
By Paul Rudoff on Sep. 23, 2015 at 11:30 PM , Categories: Spook Central, Ghostbusters 1, Ghostbusters 2
Overall, I think the two Blu-ray discs released in 2014 for both films are the best available copies of the films. When I need to pull new images, I tend to go with my Blu-ray rips over my DVD rips, so it seemed fitting that I replace all of Spook… more »

For many years, you have been able to read The Real Ghostbusters series bible here on Spook Central, but I never considered that a series bible would exist for any other Ghostbusters animated series. I don't know why, as it's one of the basic production… more »

Ghostbusters 1 & 2 Press Kit Documents
Back in July of last year, I created Ghostbusters Press Kit and Ghostbusters II Press Kit pages here on Spook Central. The high-resolution scans of the photos were added (if you have any of the missing GB2 photos, or can provide better scans of the… more »
The Best of Ghostbusters Fan Videos 1997-2007
The recently posting of all Slimer deleted scenes from Ghostbusters II by William Forsche (who has lots of other Ghostbusters II videos on Facebook) got me thinking about Ghostbusters videos, specifically Ghostbusters fan films. When I became a part of… more »
Official Ghostbusters Calendars For A New Year
Today's the first day of a new year, and what better way to celebrate it than by offering up the "Official" Ghostbusters 1 & 2 calendars for 1986 and 1990, respectively. These were published by Antioch Publishing, who had the license to produce… more »
Ghostbusters Christmas Carols
Today is Christmas Day - in the United States, at least - and some of you may enjoy singing Christmas carols today. While these may not be "Jingle Bells" or "O' Christmas Tree", us Ghostheads have our own special songs. I'm talking about the hit theme… more »
