Fun Facts

  • As with "Venkman's Ghost Repellers", this episode clearly takes place before the events of "Cold Cash and Hot Water", where Charlie Venkman and Dr. Basingame team up. Ray specifically mentions the events of "The Spirit Of Aunt Lois" in "Cold Cash And Hot Water".
  • Dr. Basingame wears the exact same outfit as Jake from "Filmation's Ghostbusters". Dr. Basingame is a fraud and a charleton, which is what the makers of The Real Ghostbusters are calling Filmation's Ghostbusters.
  • The title of this episode is a reference to "The Spirit of St. Louis" a plane flown by Charles Lindbergh.
