Halloween II 1/2

Samhaine escapes from the Containment Unit and causes trouble for the guys and the Junior Ghostbusters.

Samhaine - one of the most memorable villains of the series. So memorable, in fact, that he was brought back 10 years later in the Extreme Ghostbusters toyline, even though he only appeared in that series' opening titles! You might be wondering why I chose this episode instead of his first appearance in When Halloween Was Forever. Well, the short answer is that I remember this episode much more clearly - and I always liked the way Samhaine redecorated the firehouse. He should get his own show on the Home & Garden channel. Martha Stewart has nothing on him! See, I got through all of that and I didn't even mention the dreadful Junior Ghostbusters and their crapmobile, the Ecto-Junior. Drat!
