get in ghostbusters fanbase, we’re going on a field trip
we’re gonna have some magic school bus shenanigans
ghostbusters fandom…
Ty for the tag!!! I’m doing ghostbusters too :))
Fav Character: A tie between Egon and Phoebe, as well as RGB Peter. I love them bc they’re just relatable and silly. Fav Villain: GOZERRRR!! And Zuul but she’s part of the package deal. I love Zuul so much that she’s actually the main villain in my own comic I’m making :))
Fav Ship: Checkmatch, it’s cute and sweet. Least Fav Character: Jack Hardemeyer (The mayor’s assistant in GB2.) I hate this man. Locking up the boys in the psych ward (probably traumatizing them let’s be honest), and not eve telling his boss?? Foul. Death. They should’ve kept the scene where Ray punched him. He deserves to go crazy every once and a while. Least Fav Villain: Probably Vigo due to his lack of being mentioned in future things, as well as the fact that he’s the least intimidating force of the main villains. Least Fav Ship: Probably Louis and Janine. I know it’s technically canon and I know they canonically broke up in the comics, but it felt like such a weak move just shifting her attention and flirtiness to Louis. I know that Janine and Egon were doomed as a ship due to writing and how the directors not wanting it (I think) but they didn’t have to immediately make her fall for Louis. ESPECIALLY when the comics and other media disregard it and add her liking Egon again. I’m pretty sure in one of the IDW comics she kisses him. He’s confused as hell but it still shows that Louis x Janine, while funny, becomes super pointless super fast bc she still clearly likes Egon in the other media (even if he never reciprocates.)

just a reminder that these are MY OWN personal headcanons, and if you don’t like them then you’re free to ignore them and move on. If you use my headcanons, please credit me! Also, if I get anything wrong about mental health here, please let me know so I can fix it! I’m still in progress of getting an official diagnosis for myself, so if I get the symptoms of depression and anxiety wrong, tell me! I do not want to accidentally stereotype, and/or misinterpret mental health.
Peter’s family is of confusing origin. His father, Jim Venkman (yes I’m using the canon name, but perhaps one of Peter’s relatives was named Charlie, and thats why Peter has the middle name Charles) was born in America by parents of mostly unknown origin, and his mother is Italian. (I gave her the name Beatrice, with her former last name being Lorenzo. If you use it please credit me) She moved to the Americas and eventually met Jim. The two inevitably fell in love and had a kid, Peter. Unfortunately Beatrice died when he was young, causing Jim to be distant, throwing himself into work. It is unknown whether or not Peter has any other relatives out there- in some of my writing it’s implied he has a sister, and maybe another relative..? But that’s for another time- but his family situation definitely influenced the way his personality is, being dodgy with personal questions and being a bit of a little shit to mask the loneliness that still lingers in his heart from being ignored so much. I’d imagine Ray not talking about his family or childhood memories too much, but when he does, it’s usually standard stuff. Roasting marshmallows at summer camp, learning to ride a bike, the typical happy childhood. This leads most to assume that he had a pretty good childhood. The truth is, the memories he share aren’t really painting the full picture. He was happy as a young kid, yes. But it’s mostly because he was simply blind to the truth when he was little. In my headcanon, his mother wasn’t the greatest person in the world. Perhaps even cheated on his father. The family was lower income, [I’d imagine the only reason Ray got into Columbia university was pure chance, a science fair or some other scholarship that got him off the ground and to a better school but idk yet.] and his mother just used it irresponsibly. Was it gambling? Was it alcohol? Nobody knows. But he had no clue. To his child self, he didn’t seem to understand why his mom constantly ignored him and his [possible] siblings. His father, like Peter’s, worked a lot to pick up the pieces and inevitably divorced his wife- and for good reason. Now as an adult, he’s trying to make up for the years of love lost, which is why he’s so close and affectionate with a lot of his friends. He wants to give them what he was missing, even if he constantly denies it.
This is more of a metaphorical sense, but in a planned comic there IS an actual curse that sticks around in the Venkman family, which causes problems. (If you wanna know, please ask :D)
The Venkman family has an issue with keeping the ones they love around, whether that be romantic or platonic. Somehow people keep disappearing and/or leaving them, and it usually results in putting up walls and ignoring the ones who really do love them, out of fear of being hurt. The Stantz family usually has a pattern of mental health issues being passed down. Ray’s mother was most likely depressed, leading to her ignoring him a ton. (This isn’t saying that her depression is the thing that made her a horrible person. What made her a horrible person was the cheating, lying, and misuse of money that was meant to go into feeding her family. Her mental health isn’t what made her horrible. It was her actions. She used her depression as more of a shield to shift the blame.) Ray most likely has depression and/or anxiety too- implied in some of his dialogue in the starting cutscene of spirits unleashed. (The dialogue saying that some days he couldn’t find the motivation to get out of bed in the morning, wondering why it was worth it to try.) He most likely feared becoming a parent, worrying that his own mental health will be tanked and he’ll ignore the poor child, just like his mother did with him. He puts on a happy face for the public and his friends, always acting energetic and happy, but the scars still linger, which is possibly why he smoked a lot. Stress relief.
You probably caught on already, but both Peter and Ray have HEAVY parallels here. They were both Mama’s boys growing up. Both were quite young when their mother figures disappeared on them- figuratively or literally- and their fathers were distant. Their personalities came from defense mechanisms, trying to either make up for the years lost or protect themselves from further heartbreak and harm. They stick with their friends because they don’t know where else to go, because there’s always a lingering fear of judgement. The fear of commitment, the uncertainty of having a kid but being super protective of any child in danger, like Oscar.
The two bonded over this. It’s how they first met. They sought each other out. It’s also how they probably met Egon too. Another man damaged by his childhood, just attempting to be normal in this world.
And of course, when their mental health finally starts getting better- when things are looking brighter for all of them…
Egon leaves.
(Bro this is incredibly depressing wtffffff- please feel free to add on and/or analyze my yapping, and I hope y’all enjoyed my first official personal headcanon post!!)

SHE CRITICIZES ME FOR BEING EGOCENTRIC‼️‼️🗣🗣🗣
That's it. That's the post
It’s rlly cool though- inflatable stay puft and a couple light up models of the guys zapping it. I need to beg my mom to let me carve a Ghostbusters pumpkin this year but with my luck she’s gonna say no 😔
I like seeing you on my posts. Nice seeing folks understanding my nonsense.
awww you’re so sweet! I’m glad I understand your nonsense.
Alright time to infodump
TW: Mentions of suicide! Please skip this post of the topic is triggering to you :(
Also this kinda briefly mentions a slight one sided OC x Canon (or maybe they were in love but it’s complicated as shit)
Okay so…
Edward had a lot of issues that wasn’t just his anxiety. He hopelessly followed Egon around because he had fallen for him. A couple days before Egon completely left town, Edward had decided to confess after years of being quiet. And it seemed that Egon reciprocated. But when he figured out Egon was planning on leaving, he was pissed. He spilled his guts and Egon was leaving- not the most pleasant of experiences. (although Egon was also trying to leave him so he wouldn’t get hurt, he probably would’ve explained things or left some letter to apologize, I don’t feel like he’s just leave someone who confessed to him just a day prior without some reasoning)
He left with Egon to Summerville after an argument and practically demanding an explanation and calling him out on the fact that leaving is a really bad idea, but because he didn’t know what else to do he just followed along, not just going out of love but to keep him from getting hurt or killed because of how destructive ghost research can be. For a while it was fine, Edward just stuck with him and at least tried to defend him from people who called him crazy. But eventually some other argument happened, right after Egon caught Vinz and was going to catch Zuul. This time Edward didn’t follow behind. Their last words to each other weren’t good ones, said in the heat of an argument they both wish they could’ve took back. Edward left the Dirt Farm. Egon tried to catch Zuul. And we all know how that went. Consumed by the guilt and with nobody else to turn to because they all thought he went nuts, Edward spiraled. He died only three days later, suicide by gunshot. In those three days he called and made several apologies, leaving voicemails or letters to say sorry for leaving them. When Callie and the others come back to the Dirt Farm, Phoebe can’t help but notice there’s a more mournful spirit in the house, forever roaming but too scared to approach Egon out of fear that he hates him, even though it’s not true at all.
Phoebe notices the problem and instantly wants to help solve it before Edward’s ghostly depression turns into anything worse, which could put the whole house and anybody inside at risk. OUCH THAT WAS A LOT OF INFODUMPING BUT UH LORE IG
First art post kinda nervous
Art style jumpscare aaaa Never really posted art before, these are some no color sketches I made yesterday of my ocs.
Things are left vague on purpose, but I hope you guys enjoy these little bits of story… I’ll probably release more of this soon because there’s a lot…
btw if any of you are curious about the “poor stranger,” make your guesses as to who they are, if you’d like. There’s a lot of bits of writing that talks about them. :)
