Ghostbuster Halloween Costumes
Who you going to call? If you just shouted your answer, then congratulations - you're among an elite force of Ghostbusters fans, the very same fans who propelled a little old movie from 1984 into a major media franchise with three sequels and countless Halloween costumes and fancy dress outfits.
Ghostbusters isn't just the stuff of catchphrases and fancy dress: it's a blast from the past for an entire nation, an enduring pop culture legacy.
Let's start with the beginning.
Back in 1984, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis, and Bill Murray teamed up to make a movie about ghosts.
Originally intended as an epic sci-fi adventure, budget restrictions made them scale back.
Dialogue was improvised, effects were faked.
Comedy was added.
Someone, somewhere, dreamed up the giant marshmallow man.
The plot is simple: a trio of out-of-work paranormal scientists decide to run their own ghost-hunting business.
They give up their prestigious life for a retired firehouse, and they struggle to make ends meet while investigating the weird, ghostly underbelly of New York.
A chance encounter with a sentient blob leads to demigods, cult leaders, and a plot to destroy the city.
When they save the day, the Ghostbusters become heroes.
The ghosts themselves go down in history.
The logo ghost, the slimmer, the giant marshmallow man - they were all immortalized in everything from action figures to Halloween outfits.
Not only did audiences love them, they have become one of the favorite choices for going trick or treating at Halloween nearly everywhere.
If you were looking for costumes for Halloween, 1984 was the year you were a Ghostbuster everyone seemed to be dressed up in there Ghostbusters Halloween Costumes, which made not only a scary but a great fun night.
Even now, the legacy of Ghostbusters lives on.
It has novels, comics, merchandise, amusement park rides, and a half-dozen video games.
There's a live action sequel and two animated spinoffs (and rumors have been circulating for years that the directors want another movie).
The firehouse has become a tourist attraction.
Halloween outfits have had the biggest boost, offering kids and adults alike the chance to become their favorite ghost or ghost chaser.
Who you going to call? Ghostbusters was made with a budget of $30 million.
It went on to net almost $300 million and become one of the famous films of all time.
A fun little movie about ghost hunters, it slithered, slimed, squeaked, smoked, and stomped its way into our hearts with Halloween costumes remaining there for over two decades.
One thing's for sure - costumes for Halloween were not as much fun before Ghostbusters.
