Count me in as one of the kids that the bogeyman TERRIFIED. That drawing should not have been allowed in the 80’s lol. The plot etc. scared the living crap out of me. To this day, I swear. The Bogeyman has evolved to a creature more realistic (how long can you go before a brightly colored animation scares you anymore) but still… I swear the fact the proton packs didn’t work on him screwed me up for years. The boys were always my safety net damnit!!! If the packs didn’t work, where the heck am I going to get the assortment of bombs to shut down his universe, or where am I gonna find a souped up pack to go rescue the junior ghosbusters?!?!?!? Jeeez!

It’s been a long time since I watched it, but I always thought that the reason the contract was still in effect was because the little girl was wearing a homemade Ghostbusters costume and trick-or-treating. Maybe the machine only took away store-bought costumes, or she put hers together afterwards, I don’t know.

Real Ghostbusters were a prominent figure in my childhood and I’m convinced left such a positive impression of Halloween on my soft mallable brain. I’ve always wanted to see Play Them Ragtime Boos.

Matt,

Don’t let us distract you. I totally blew off my work over the weekend and it took about 5 cups of coffee to bull shit my through it Sunday. I also agree with the crudely drawn pumpkins or witches idea. I totally have the image in my head, I’d be glad to send you a little 500×500 of it. Pixels, that is.

By the way, I always loved the way you set up the articles. I used to want to do things like that in the geocities days, but I felt like I’d be ripping your shit. Good times with clip art.

What about just switching a few of the doodles with some halloween ones. Stuff like a crudely drawn pumpkin, witch, skull, ect.

Good thinking, Batman. However, as much as I’m an ardent supporter of almost all forms of procrastination, I’m going to greedily vote against it for the next hour and a half in favor of more Countdown. Let’s all collectively crack the whip.
