They're not afraid of any ghosts.

Peter Venkman, Ray Stantz, and Egon Spengler are scientists at Columbia University in New York who dedicate themselves to investigating the paranormal. Their academic work has little support within the institution. During an investigation at the New York Public Library, the three come across a ghost that appears before them. When the dean learns what happened, he refuses to believe their research and fires them. Far from giving up, the three decide to start their own business. They call it Ghostbusters and offer it as a service for investigating and eliminating paranormal phenomena. The film is directed by Ivan Reitman and stars Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, and Harold Ramis, who play these three scientists.

Trivia about Ghostbusters

Reitman later admitted that he made up the figure of 25 to 30 million dollars as the budget, based on three times the budget of Stripes.

Huey Lewis was approached to write the main theme, but he was already committed to Back to the Future (1985).

Before Ray Parker Jr. got involved, different artists wrote between 50 and 60 songs for the movie, and none of them were considered suitable.

Filming in the main reading room of the New York Public Library was only allowed in the early hours of the morning and had to wrap before 10:00.

During his audition, Sigourney Weaver started walking on all fours and howling like a dog, showing off his comedic training.

Science fiction writer Isaac Asimov complained to Aykroyd about the disruption the shoot was causing in one of the buildings.

It spent seven consecutive weeks at number one at U.S. theaters and earned at least 282 million dollars worldwide in its initial release.

Ramis took the name Egon from a Hungarian refugee he had gone to school with, and the surname from German historian Oswald Spengler.

Quotes by Ghostbusters

Personally, I liked the University. They gave us money and facilities, we didn't have to produce anything! You've never been out of college! You don't know what it's like out there! I've worked in the private sector. They expect results.
Ah, If there's a steady paycheck in it, I'll believe anything you say.
[last line] I love this town!
