**A full-color hardcover volume chronicling the history of The Real Ghostbusters with creator interviews, original animation scans, toy photography, and much more!*After nearly forty years, the 1984 classic Ghostbusters *endures. The original film introduced the world to Peter Venkman, Ray Stantz, Egon Spengler, Winston Zeddemore, Ectomobiles, Proton Packs, the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man, and Slimer, just to name a few.

A global-phenomenon,* Ghostbusters soon made the trans-dimensional sidestep to animation with 1986’s The Real Ghostbusters *. The Saturday morning cartoon was an incredible success. For many kids, the animated series acted as their gateway into loving Ghostbusters long before they were age-appropriate to see the film. The series was acclaimed for its mature storytelling, fantastical animation, and a voice cast that became as synonymous with the characters as the live-action actors who originated them. A simultaneous toy launch from Kenner ectoplasmatically energized the property with some of the most memorable, most-beloved, weirdest, and best-selling toys in popular culture.
