Description

In the immortal words of Ray Stantz from the 1995 classic "Casper": "Who you gonna call? Somebody else."
Today we take a look at the mid-80s attempt to bring Ghostbusters to the Six Flags theme parks with Sente Technologies and Roger Hector's "Ghostbusters: The Hauntington Hotel" shooting dark ride, a first-of-its-kind prototype at the time. Is it a big twinkie, or a complete bust, and how does it compare to the Ghostbusters attractions we eventually got? 
PLUS: we take a nostalgic look back at Walt Disney World's opening for its 50th anniversary and preview its early unbuilt attractions and hotels!
