This is Uncle Strange, in the neighborhood. We gon' call, Ghostbuster!

It's something weird, and it don't look good. We gon' call, Ghostbuster!

I ain't afraid of no ghosts.

I ain't afraid of no ghosts.

We gon' call, Ghostbuster!

We now return to the real Ghostbuster.

Ghostbuster!

Okay, we're on him now. Watch out for the hot dog cart, Winston!

Don't hit that news, Dan!

Ray, we should've put another wheel in the backseat for him.

Aww...

Aww...

Okay, Louie, we got you covered.

You'll never take me alive, coppers! Of course not.

You're a ghost.

Oh, yeah. I keep forgetting. And if I'm a ghost, I can do this.

You don't scare us, Louie. Take away those supernatural

powers and you're nothing but another two-bit deadwood.

One...

Two... Three!

No! No! No!

Hit it!

No! No! No!

I've been fighting, Faith!

No! No! No!

Another ghost? Another Dolly?

What?

Let's get it back to the containment chamber.

Hurry up, Elon!

Boy, I'm exhausted.

Yeah, I don't know about you guys, but I'm gonna sleep like the dead.

Possibly not the most appropriate metaphor, Peter, considering our line of work.

Janine, we're all going beddy by now, so don't let anyone in.

Whatever you say, Dr. Venkman.

And now for some rest.

Yuck! Slimer!

You've been sleeping on my pillow again, haven't you?

Slimer, if you had any days left, they'd be numbered.

Hey, Ray, I think it might be a good time

to test this new ghost bomb he got designed.

You know, the one guaranteed to disintegrate all spirits within a fifty-yard radius?

Works every time.

Janine, do you know what time it is?

I know you told me not to let anyone in, but I think this qualifies as an exception.

Remind me to pay you some time so I can cut your salary.

What is it, Janine?

Meet Megan and Kenny Carter. They wanna hire us.

They wanna hire us?

You can have everything in our piggy bank.

Well, our usual fee for a standard capture and containment is $1,500.

But we'll make an exception.

Janine, get the kids some cookies and milk, will ya? Okay, kids.

Suppose you tell old Winston what the problem is.

Well, sir, it's like this.

It's the boogeyman!

What?

Yeah, the boogeyman lives in our closet. He's there right now.

He comes out and he scares us.

Uh-huh. I think you kids have got overactive imaginations.

That's what our parents say, but it's true. He's there.

Peter, I think we should look into this.

Look, ghost, specters, phantoms I can believe in.

But the boogeyman, that's a little harder.

I say we investigate, now.

Okay.

You wanna tell us why you're so hot to take this case, Egon?

Let's just say, it's personal.

Thanks, Egon. That explains a lot.

Shh. We don't wanna wake up Mom and Dad.

Looks pretty scary, alright.

I'm reading high paranormal activity in the closet.

Okay, Egon. Open the door.

Oh, shh.

But he wasn't there, honest.

Well, doesn't look like he's there anymore.

You've never heard of a window in a closet before? Hey, Dad.

It's him.

Okay, let's earn some money.

I remember you.

Egon, move.

No. Not again.

What?

It's not a ghost. How are we gonna get it in the trash? Good question.

Why do you think it had before?

local stream!

Maybe we can force him back in the closet.

Now, do you believe me? Yeah, kid.

Oh, yeah.

We've gotta go after him.

No, we don't. Show me where it says that.

Egon, we need more equipment.

Not to mention a plan.

You don't understand. We can't let him get away.

We've got to close off that portal.

What's going on here?

Who are you?

They're the Ghostbusters, Mom. They came to get rid of the Boogeyman.

Yeah. Good evening. I'm Ray Stance of the Ghostbusters.

I'm sorry to have to tell you that you've got what seems

to be a Class 7 repeating corporeal entity residing here.

Or, in layman's terms, the Boogeyman lives in your closet.

I see. Thank you so much for stopping by. Why don't you leave? Now.

Why didn't they believe us?

Egon, we told them there was a monster in their kid's closet.

We're lucky they didn't have us arrested.

We've gotta go back there and find it again.

Wrong. What we've gotta do is some serious thinking about how to catch this thing.

Since the Boogeyman's not a ghost, we can't use the standard traps on him.

We'll have to think of something else.

Egon, the Boogeyman said he remembered you.

Is there anything you'd like to tell us?

When I was a child, the Boogeyman would come out of my closet.

He's the reason I started investigating the supernatural.

I wanted to find a way to stop him.

According to this, the Boogeyman lives on kid's fear.

The more scared they are, the better he likes it.

Heck of a way to make a living.

Still, when you think about how many kids there are, he's got job security.

Hey, that's it. We can't go back into the Carter's house,

but maybe we can find another closet that leads to the Boogeyman's domain.

Yeah, sure. Right on.

And once there, this might be just what we

need to seal him up in his own world forever.

Yes, it just might work.

Unfortunately, not every child's closet leads to the Boogeyman.

We can adjust the PKE meters to pick up potential vibrations.

Okay, what are we waiting for? Let's do it.

You guys get it together, okay? I'll be back.

Where are you going? I've got some friends to check up on.

Okay.

Huh?

Madam!

That wasn't nice.

Not nice at all! Oops.

We now return to the real Ghostbusters.

Oh, no, you don't! I'll be back.

Hi, Mr.

Ghostbusters!

Remember, if you're not afraid, he can't hurt you.

We'll remember!

I think maybe I'll just hang around a while.

I don't know about you guys, but spending all

night looking in closets for the Boogeyman is not why I moved to Fun City.

It's obvious that the Boogeyman picks his victims very carefully.

Not all closets have portals in them.

Remember what they used to say about the mountain in Mohammed?

No.

I'm not surprised.

If we can't get to the Boogeyman, then why not bring the Boogeyman to us?

Huh?

No, not in here either.

Hey, we've seen just about every apartment

for rent in the city, and we haven't found it.

There's one more we haven't tried.

What?

$1,500 for this place in this neighborhood?

You have to be out of your mind.

A karate expert would be afraid to live here.

We'll take it.

Oof!

Maybe the dresser would look better against the other wall.

Peter, hey, the Boogeyman's a pretty sharp cookie.

This has got to look real if we're going to fool him into opening up for us.

These will help create the proper ambience.

Wow! It's Dopey Dog! I used to have one of these.

We've only got one problem.

We need someone to sleep here tonight who can pass for a child.

Someone whose thoughts, actions, and general state

of mind are identical to, say, a six-year-old.

Ah, Dopey!

Uh, something I can do for you guys?

Remember, as long as you're on a parade, he can't hurt you.

I want a glass of water.

Here, now go to sleep.

Peter!

What? Tell me a story.

He's just getting into the role.

He's going to be in a body cast if he keeps this up.

Once upon a time, there were four Ghostbusters who had a job to do,

and they couldn't do it because one of them wouldn't go to sleep.

The end!

What have we here?

A rather large toddler?

Queens! Ghostbusters!

It's all over, Boogie.

He wants to play rough.

Full stream, now!

Drive him back through the portal.

Peter, help me keep it open.

We've got to go after him.

Roger.

Yeehaw!

See you on the other side, Egon.

Charge!

Charge!

As an interior decorator, this guy makes a great Boogie Man.

This place is weird.

Where is it? I mean, where are we?

It's the Boogie Man's realm.

A sort of in-between place that opens the children's rooms all over the world.

So he uses all these doors to move from closet to closet.

Pretty sneaky.

Okay, let's get real here. How do we find this guy?

You were foolish to follow me.

I don't think that's going to be a problem here.

He's getting away.

Come on! I don't know if we're coming or going.

Oh, okay.

He's gone.

No, wait. There he is.

He's coming back into the real world.

After him! Yeah! Go get him, Ghostbusters!

Bust a Boogie Man! Yeah!

Get him!

This way! Quick!

Nothing to worry about, folks. We'll handle it.

You go back to sleep.

I knew we shouldn't have bought a house in Hollywood.

There he goes!

Come on, shoot!

You know he's funny, don't you?

Whoa!

Mr. Lamon's opinion, Egon, but this isn't going exactly as we planned, is it?

Whoa!

Let me get back here.

Where did that come from?

This is the Boogie Man's domain. He can use it against us.

What happens if we blast this thing with our particle beams? No telling.

The laws of physics are different here.

It could be even worse than crossing the streams.

Whoa! Thanks, Ray.

For a moment, I was worried.

We have no other choice. We have to go after him.

Let's do it.

Whoa!

Fireworks? Why did the beams turn it into fireworks?

Why not? Fair enough.

Egon, can you use your PK meter to track the Boogie Man?

Too much supernatural energy in this place. I can't zero in on him.

We'd better do something about him fast. We might not be so lucky next time.

There's only one way to destroy the Boogie Man.

You have the ghost bomb I told you to bring, Ray? Right here.

But it doesn't have enough power to do any real damage to this place.

Not yet. But we can fix that.

Before we do anything, let's find someplace more solid.

Let me get this straight.

We're hooking our proton packs up to the bomb to provide the necessary power? Correct.

The resulting hyperspatial implosion

might just seal off the Boogie Man's realm forever.

Then let's set it. Let's get moving.

If the Boogie Man shows up while we're defenseless...

Thanks, Winston. We get the picture.

Okay. This is it.

Set your packs on overload. Let's go. We have to hurry.

Boop.

I'll hold them off.

Yeah? You and what Starfleet?

Egon!

No!

It won't scare me again.

Yeah! We'll see about that.

After I finish with you, I'll deal with the Carter children.

Look, Kenny.

Now watch me put him in to your so-called heroes.

We've got to help them.

No. No, I'm scared.

We're scared. He can get us. We've got to be brave. Come on.

It ends here and now, Boogie Man. No more scaring little boys and girls. Not ever.

Hey, Boogie Man! You don't scare me yet.

You look stupid. Your head's too big. And you've got bad breath.

Make it. Kenny, get out of here.

Run. Hurry. We've only got seconds left.

What's going on here?

Get back!

What was that? That, Mrs.

Carter, was the Boogie Man going bye-bye.

The portal is sealed. The Boogie Man's realm has been closed off forever.

Now do you believe us?

Looks like we owe all of you an apology.

Think nothing of it, sir. All in a night's work.

Sleep well, kids.

We will. Now. Thank you.

Talk about exhausted. I could sleep for a couple of ice ages.

At least we're not the only ones who sleep soundly.

Yeah. Kids all over the world can rest knowing that the

Boogie Man won't be coming out of their closets anymore.

Kind of gives you a warm glow, doesn't it? Yipe.

He's back.

All right, Boogie. We know you're in there.

Come out with your talons up.

Goodbye.

Let me blast him. I mean it. I'm talking full stream here.

This ghost is toast. Look over me.

Thanks for watching!
