Gozer fights off our heroes with a powerful blast of image mapped projection, activating the entire scene with bolts of electricity and demonic power. The hotel ball room is once again under attack by Slimer, portrayed both in projection and puppet form (complete with human arms to grab at guests while they pass.) Dana’s freshly cursed apartment reveals the coming of Zuul, leading to an absolutely epic showdown between Gozer and the Ghostbusters on the rooftop steps to her temple high above NYC. Portrayed by a live actor sporting a microphone, Janine makes some snarky comments to callers on the phone, while pausing to occasionally heckle guests passing through in perfect character. Naturally at her desk, Janine Melnitz fields the phones as some apparently annoying calls begin to come in from all around the city. The Firehouse interior becomes the first of several wow-inspiring set pieces – intricately detailed and built to an impressive scale. Inside, shelves of books line the walls from ceiling to floor – some of which seem to move on their own as a ghostly librarian appears and disappears, urging silence in her midst. Even once inside the soundstage, there’s not much of an entry statement, as a modest stone wall implies the exterior of the film’s iconic library scene. Surprisingly, despite the Ghostbusters Firehouse facade standing in Universal Studios Florida for nearly thirty years, the queue for this haunt does not start at its doors. With such a popular – and timeless – franchise comes lofty expectations, and Halloween Horror Nights 29 completely than delivers with one of the most memorable houses in recent years. Ghostbusters is unquestionably one of the most iconic horror/comedies of all time, so its inclusion as a grand scale, high budget haunt is a natural fit.
