    TIL ectoplasm in the ghost sense (as opposed to cellular) is a concept that existed before Ghostbusters. I thought they just took the cell biology term to sound sciency.

      Dan akroyd is a real believer, he ghost hunts as a hobby and the original draft of Ghostbusters was grounded in “reality” until Harold Ramis reeled him in.
