Fun Facts

• This episode reuses some footage from a previous episode. When the Ghostbusters enter the building, Winston says, "Are you sure this is where they're having the conference on the paranormal?" We then see shots of the people at the conference, which are really from the episode "Deadcon I". Since "Deadcon I" was from the early seasons of the show, and this episode is from the latter seasons, it's interesting to note how the animation and quality of the footage differs.
