Ghostbusters (1984) - The Library Ghost Scene | Movieclips

[@pragmaticoptimist46]

Absolutely terrifying to a kid. The first jump scare of any movie I can remember.

It was the sssh

[@planetbazaar7]

Me too lol

[@hisdudeness8328]

I love that confused look Ray and Eagon give each other when Peter asks what do they do after finding the ghost. These two were so caught up in just finding proof of the existence of ghosts that neither one of them had a plan on what to actually do if they found one. 😅

[@Surfer041]

The chemistry between the three of them is off the charts.

[@trinaq]

This scene always scared the bejesus out of me. Who guessed that early 80's special effects can still hold up today?!

[@sonrouge]

Yeah, I remember seeing this as a kid at my babysitter's house and all of us running across the room when she roared.

Exactly! Venkman did not take kindly to being shushed by a ghost lol

[@alexanderpytko5394]

“GET HER!” Probably one Dan Akroyd’s most famous lines in his whole acting career and I’d say his most famous line in the movie!

[@CorporalDanLives]

I can't believe I NEVER noticed the absolutely hilarious backward trot that Egon is doing until today.

[@MartyMcFly88]

3:10 Egon’s face and the way he runs away backwards always kills me 😂

The dynamic of Bill Murray as an ironic parental figure at 2:30 really works.

Such a classic horror-comedy scene, I liked it.

[@LeonardoKlotz]

RIP Harold Ramis RIP Ivan Reitman

[@Locadel2003]

Nothing beats the original Ghostbusters, not even Afterlife

[@guts-141]

I like Afterlife but the Original is unbeatable

[@goldenvulture6818]

Afterlife sort of made up for the terrible 2016 version

[@JohnLutherable]

lol afterlife is a toy for children with zero energy, lacks pretty much anything that made this movie great

[@manuelorozco7760]

I think GB 1,2 and Afterlife are on par. I personally can’t choose

[@Ironcabbit]

I think Afterlife is the second best one, because it had the wry humor and didn’t try to copy any of the others. GB2 was too sanitized and studio-meddled while Frozen Empire seemed like an episode from a streaming show.

[@andrejamal5438]

Omg the laughter this movie brought!!!

[@joemasters2270]

I was only 8 years old when I saw this in the theater. Scared the ever loving crap out of me 🤣

[@Doommaster677]

This scared me so badly and still does even now

[@Maxeroni-gl9fv]

When I saw this movie for the first time I was very young so didn’t really understand what was going on my grandma and grandpa said this movie was a classic. This scene scared the heck out of me

[@kingryand]

2:20 “Stop that!” What every parent wants to do to their kids whose faces are stuck on their phones lmao

[@jblack5323]

The first shot at 1:49 scared the crap out of me as a child, even more so than the jump scare. My mum used to work in a video shop (remember those…) in the 80’s on the weekend and occasionally I would have to go with here if my dad was working. Used to sit behind the counter watching the latest home movies and that was when I saw ghostbusters for the first time 👍 I remember it being damn cool to have the ghostbusters sweater too

[@randomland2775]

Even as a kid, this made me laugh so hard. The roar the librarian makes is so priceless.😂

[@jamiezoschke4212]

" GET HER!!!"

[@mary2615]

Another great movie 🔥❤️🔥

[@yemalad1.]

Pure 80s nostalgia 👌

[@manuelorozco7760]

I maybe a 90’s baby but this is one of few movies that sparked my appreciation for the 80’s

[@pr0v0cative4pple]

Watching this at 7 years old, I got so scared by this scene that I developed a literal trauma response that forced my mind to wipe this scene from my memory. I couldn't look at the library ghost for literal decades until I finally started to desensitize myself to its image. In other words, good job, puppet makers!

[@panowa8319]

I remember when I first saw this in theaters, the audience screamed and couldn't stop laughing for the next five minutes.

[@JohnGraves1985]

This ghost shows up in the Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire trailer.

[@davidcolantuono3622]

Ray shouldn't have pushed it. She simply told Peter to shush. But, when Ray yelled, "GET HER!!!"...well... 👻😱

[@JoseMorales-lw5nt]

Fun fact... that demonic figure the Library Ghost changed into? It would show up exactly 1 year later. Courtesy of another gem from Columbia Pictures. Here's a clue.... SOOOOOOOOOOO! That's right, from 1985, Fright Night. The animatronic figure was reused as the bat that Chris Sarandon would transform into during the final battle at his house...❤

[@amaliadelapozagarcia4491]

Esta peli nunca pasara de moda. La he visto tantas veces. Geniales!!!

PKE Meter is such a cool device. Doesn't get as much love as the Proton Pack, but is just as important in busting ghosts

[@aaronkenyon7112]

If not more important. How are you gonna use the Proton Packs on the ghosts if you can't find said ghosts?

[@skyrimwarrior]

Yes, I confess as a kid, this movie scared me, but after watching this movie over and over again. I began to love this movie, and I loved the soundtrack so much, I played it over and over again.

[@illuminocalypse5210]

"Listen! You smell something??" - one of my favorite out of context lines ever. Also, I used to skip this scene as a little kid because it freaked me out so damn much. We had a library in my neighborhood that was very much like this one in its spooky vibe and I used to be scared of encountering something like this there.

[@alexanderpytko5394]

It’s funny how they look as they start to approach the ghost with that music playing but even funnier how they look when they run away scared. Ray and Egon are backing away fast terrified while Peter’s running as if he’s saying, “Come on! Come on! Let’s get out of here!”
