We now return to the real ghost buster.

Cynthia Crawford here, live for UBM news.

With just hours before Halloween Eve starts in earnest,

the Ghostbusters are fittingly enough on the job.

Hey Winston, what's small and hairy and green all over?

There's no time for joke Peter.

Who's joking?

This is one of the many hauntings that have hit

the city as Halloween aplomb aren't so sure.

This particular job was described by spokesman

Dr. Peter Venkman as a minor job, a piece of cake, no problem at all.

A piece of cake Dr.

Venkman? I never said that, even if I said it, I never said it.

I think we've seen that at least three times more than we had to Ray.

I don't like it.

Me either.

I always look terrible on TV.

No, that's not what I mean, it shouldn't have

been that hard a job, but we had to fight

like crazy to get those things contained, right Egon?

Seems like the closer we get to Halloween,

the more cases we get, each tougher than the last.

Interesting, huh Egon?

Shh, Egon's working.

We wouldn't want to bother him now, would we?

Egon, old buddy!

Hey, what do you want to do tonight? Nothing.

No, no, you did nothing last night.

You got to take these things slowly, too much nothing in one week.

Can you stand the excitement? Plan B? Plan B.

Now stand still, okay?

Egon, either you tell me what you're working

on, or I'll tell Slime or you got a cupcake in your socks.

You wouldn't dare.

Why Egon?

What's that in your socks?

If I didn't know better, I'd swear it looked just like a- Okay, okay.

I'll talk.

I was just working out the last details.

Who says blackmail's a law start?

P.K.E. readings have been increasing all month across the city, but they took a real

jump when some ancient ruins from Ireland arrived two weeks ago.

The ruins date from the seventh century.

Seventh century Ireland?

That's where Halloween started.

I didn't even know Halloween was that old.

Sure.

It marked the transition to a time when the nights got longer.

Scarier.

The Irish and Scottish immigrants brought

it to America, where we called it Halloween.

That's utterly fascinating, Egon.

But what's the point?

Those relics brought here from Ireland go back to when Halloween started.

What if Halloween is based on something that really happened long ago?

I keep wondering if those ruins in Halloween

itself is the reason why everything's been going wrong lately.

Maybe we ought to check those ruins out, keep

them under lock and key until Halloween's over.

You're kidding, right?

What can some relics 1200 years old do to us now? Beat it, Spud.

Looking for a lollipop? Try his socks.

Yeah!

Yes!

Cut it out!

Oh.

Come on.

I'm sorry! Sharp pink.

Sharp pink.

Oh, look!

It's a lollipop! All right.

Oh, man.

The Frankenstein is moving.

In that action.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

The witch is missing.

In that action.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

The Frankenstein is moving.

In that action.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

The witch is missing.

Um, not to pry, but what exactly is that thing you two have been working on?

A spectrum differentializer.

A toaster.

Huh?

I think we should have a nice long talk.

No, no, Slimer, not like that.

You have to jump me.

That's right.

You heard correct.

Jump me.

Okay, kids.

Here you go.

Enjoy.

Whoops.

More company.

Hope I have enough to last the night.

A wonderful goblin costume.

And so authentic.

I hope Bon Bon's are okay.

Pizza.

Hey! Let me guess.

You're not big on Bon Bon.

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

Ah!

They went that way.

This doesn't look good.

PK meters going right off the scale.

Looks like a city-wide manifestation.

Then how come nobody called them?

Phone lines must be out.

Or possessed.

Remind me not to accept any collect calls.

I don't see anything.

Maybe Janine was mistaken.

Boy, don't you just love it the way they light up the trees at Christmas? I don't know.

I mean, every year, earlier and earlier, I... Peter!

Whoa!

It's not Christmas!

Uh, then we're in serious trouble, aren't we?

My little ones, it is time at last.

All of you, all the things not of this world, come to me.

All come.

All not of this world, come to me.

All come.

All come.

All come.

Little ones, attend to me.

My little ones, I am then, out of you all.

You have done well, but the night is young,

and we have much to do.

Much to do to make sure that Halloween never ends.

That from this moment on,

the world shall know only eternal night.

So, a traitor, bring him to me.

You have the stench of mortals about you.

You live with them, help them.

You disappoint me,

but no matter,

night without end is coming,

and you will join my midnight army.

or pay the price.

Aah!

Oh, that was close, but we're safe now.

Hello there, honey.

Get up, you cheerleader.

Before I get you.

Oh, boy, am I pooped,

and we haven't even got a tenth of them yet.

How long have we been at this, anyway?

Peter, what time do you have? It's.

..

It's been hours since we started.

Time is slowing down.

Hmm, I wonder.

I'm not going anywhere until somebody explains what's going on.

Just can't keep you guys away from TV.

Shh, shh, listen.

Night is also reported spreading over most of Europe, Asia, and South Africa.

Scientists report a dark cloud-covering nation after nation.

Egon, you little scrapper,

I bet you know what's going on.

Let us in, okay? Okay.

One, Halloween started to celebrate night's creatures.

Two, suddenly we're up to our hips in them.

Three, nights falling everywhere.

Four, time is slowing down.

Inclusion, it'll be Halloween forever.

This night will never end.

Actually, I think I like not knowing a lot better.

Stop that car!

Did that sufficiently stop terrain? It'll do.

Come on, let's reel it in.

What was that?

Watch it!

It was quiet, too quiet.

I always wanted to say that.

Look, up there!

Why are you bothering my little ones?

I repeat, why are you bothering my little ones?

You mean these little creeps we've been blasting all night?

You say those things are your little ones?

All things of the night are mine.

On this night more than any other.

For I am Samhain.

I am Halloween.

Of course!

Halloween began as the feast of Samhain.

Samhain was supposed to be a creature of night who no one could stop.

Oh, boy.

It is good to know I am remembered.

I was trapped in stone for so many centuries.

Okay, no problem.

You're new in town, out of the house for the first time in 1200 years.

You want a little excitement.

Hey, I can understand that.

So, when are you taking the next train out of town?

I am not leaving.

I have come to give my gift.

The gift of eternal night.

Eternal Halloween.

Eternal me.

Cut that out.

Look, don't make me come up there.

I give you one last warning.

Leave us alone.

The spirit of Halloween cannot be stopped by mere mortals.

Yeah, well, this mortal would like to get a better look at you.

Fools.

You have sealed your doom.

Stop.

Shy little fella, isn't he?

Probably overcompensating for a poor self-image.

That's it.

That's it?

We shouldn't make fun of the way he dresses?

No.

It's the light.

It drove him off.

Yeah, well, it doesn't do much for me either, Egon.

It hates light.

All we have to do is turn on all the lights in the city.

That would weaken it enough to...

Oh, no. Power field.

The whole city's blacked out.

At least our power packs are still working.

That's it.

I know what to do, but I need a distraction.

Wait, what should we do?

Try a frontal attack.

That'll keep him busy.

I don't know. Giving us the easy stuff. Do you think that's fair?

Your mortal friends cannot help you.

Only I can save you.

Deny them.

Swear allegiance to my army of the night,

and I may permit you to exist.

Aah!

You're done here.

Don't make something.

For sure.

Not yet.

We may yet have need of this one.

Why do I have the terrible feeling that I'm not going to enjoy this at all?

I just hope Egon knows what he's doing.

Bingo.

Hey! You! You in the car!

You call yourselves goblins?

Why, you're nothing but a... Oh, gosh.

A bunch of...

zone-dweebies.

Zone?

Call that thing!

Zone-dweebies?

One down, four to go.

That should do it.

Fun's over. You want me? Come get me.

Something I can do for you?

I just hope the generator has enough power to pull this off.

Trouble. Big, big trouble.

Well, we made it to the party. Who's got the soda and chips?

No! Let them pass. I will deal with these, personally.

And you said they wouldn't be glad to see us.

Whatever Egon's doing, I wish he'd hurry up.

I don't like the odds here.

That should do it.

And... now... Sometimes I think the universe just waits for me to get cocky.

You have been very, very bad.

Picking on such poor, innocent creatures.

Whatever shall I do with you?

Oh, vacation would be nice, someplace sunny.

I think they have other ideas.

Obviously. And I'd rather not hear them.

Wait. Surrender your weapons.

Or I shall be forced to do something unfortunate to your friend.

Slimer! Hey, no fair.

Yeah, leave him alone. Nobody picks on the spud but me, got it? You cannot win.

Already time has stopped.

Halloween will go on forever. Night will never end.

Come on, Slimer! Fight him! Get away!

Only one chance. I just hope we've got Egon enough time.

Slimer! Pizza!

Huh?

Slimer!

It's this or nothing.

Egon baby, I love you.

Fire! Winston! No!

No!

It can't end this way.

I won't go back. I won't go back.

Look, the clock's moving again.

And it's past midnight. Halloween's over.

Hey, fellas.

I ran up the stairs as fast as I could.

Is everything okay? Look.

You know, it's times like this when I really like this job.

Okay, all set? Yep, now.

This I gotta see. Well, what's happening?

I'll bet he's fuming and raging like the rest of them.

See for yourself.

But it's just sitting there. Like it's waiting.

Waited 1200 years to be free.

But wait for its chance to come again.

Which is not gonna happen, right, guys?

Hey, what's going on? Look out! Just us.

Trick or treat.

Trick. Definitely trick.

Oh, no. Stay there.

Not coming out!
