Put On Your Yarmulke, It's Time For Chanukah
For the past few years I've been posting an unusual holiday song each December. This year Matthew Jordan (of the Ghostbusters Wiki) offered to make me a little image to use for this now-annual tradition, and I thought it would be a great way to connect… more »
Shot On Site - The Ghostbusters Celebrate Christmas Near A Familiar Location
By Paul Rudoff on May. 22, 2011 at 8:20 AM , Categories: Miscellaneous, Ghostbusters 2, Filming Locations , Tags: shot-on-site
I can't believe that it's been a year since I wrote my last Shot On Site article. Even though I have five Ghostbusters filming locations positively identified, it's taken me a whole 12 months to finally write up an article about just one of them.… more »
Even Pac-Man Knows Who To Call
Click "play" to watch this little Flash animation, which was found over on swfchan. Unfortunately, it's NOT an interactive game. This isn't the first time the Ghostbusters and Mr. Pac-Man met - as noted by the evidence here, here, here, here, here,… more »
A Macarena Christmas
This year's song of choice is one that I never even knew existed until I found the four-track CD single at a church's White Elephant Sale back in July 2009. You all know the original Bayside Boys remix, as much as I'm sure you'd like to forget it, and… more »
Jim Belushi Helps A (Blues) Brother Out
Last week's episode of Jim Belushi's new series The Defenders, entitled "Nevada v. Dennis" (airdate 12/8/2010), featured a special guest appearance. Prominently sitting on Belushi's character's desk was a bottle of Dan Aykroyd's Crystal Head Vodka. Jim… more »
Free U.S. Custom House History DVD
The Alexander Hamilton U.S. Custom House celebrated its 100th anniversary back in 2007, and to mark the momentous occasion - one which almost didn't happen had the building been demolished back in 1979 like some had wanted - the U.S. General Services… more »

By Paul Rudoff on Oct. 2, 2010 at 5:13 PM , Categories: Ghostbusters 1, Miscellaneous, Ghostbusters 2
By all accounts, it was 100 years ago today, on October 2, 1910, that Fire Station #23 in Los Angeles, California opened for firefighting business. Ghostheads would know it best as the shooting location for the interiors of Ghostbusters Headquarters in… more »
Shot On Site - Fort Detmerring Exterior

For the past two years Chris Stewart has been writing a series of Shot On Site articles over at Proton Charging that document the little-known Ghostbusters filming locations, usually with diagrams showing how he was able to determine the locale in the… more »
Ghostbusters Porn
GHOSTBUSTERS PORN! Now that I have your attention... and hopefully lots of Google hits. With a title like that, it should come as no surprise that this post will be about adult subject matter. Although I'm trying my absolute best to keep this clean, and… more »
Merry Cryptmas
I am now officially starting a recurring, but not necessarily annual, tradition here at Spook Central of posting one or two holiday songs that aren't quite your normal holiday songs. I unofficially christened this new feature back in 2005 with the… more »
Tavern On The Green Closes Next Week
[UPDATE 1/1/2010 - Click to page 2 for an article and videos about the closing.] The legendary restaurant Tavern on the Green, where Louis was refused entry because they don't allow pets, will have its last seating on December 31, 2009 after 75 years of… more »
Captain Lou Albano Remembered
Wrestling personality and pop culture icon Captain Lou Albano passed away this past Wednesday at age 76. If you grew up in the 1980s, you probably remember him from his trademark Hawaiian shirts, wiry goatee and rubber bands hung like piercings from his… more »
Ghostbuster Song Roots Found? - Part 2
No, this isn't an article about how Winston is a descendant of Kunta Kinte, though The Real Ghostbusters episode "Moaning Stones" might suggest that to be true. This is actually a follow-up to a piece Chris over at Proton Charging wrote back in July… more »
Rugrats Holiday Songs
In the spirit of the holidays I have a little present for all of you: two MP3s I encoded of the two best songs from the Rugrats Holiday Classics! CD (2004), along with the lyrics as printed in the liner notes. Rugrats Chanukah (inspired by Chanukah, Oh… more »
Ghostbusters Greystone Mansion In Los Angeles Times (October 2004)
At the beginning of December 2004 I asked my friends in California, Doreen Mulman and Nora Salisbury for help with something. Unfortunately, they had so much on their plate at the time (and still do) that they were unable to help me out. I forgot about… more »
Ghostbusters 3 News
Nothing we haven't heard before, but two new articles have been posted online, and so I've added them to the bottom of the GB3 Progress page. The short version is this: Dan Aykroyd is still interested, but nobody else is. He can't move forward with his… more »
