Ready for some Ghostbustin action ?
We are so please to announce the completion of our very own Ecto 1 C Ghostbusters Car
Our meticulously crafted modern replica of Ecto 1C is a testament and dedication to the Ghostbusters franchise and its enduring legacy.
“Our inspiration for building this Ecto 1C came from many different places, firstly from already building a DeLorean Time Machine. This gave me the inspiration to look at another one of my favourite film franchises Ghostbusters.
Consulting the option of fellow Ghostbusters who asked the question :
What car would the Ghostbusters Drive today…..?
Everyone in the States pointed to the Dodge Magnum (here in the U.K it would be the Chrysler 300c). As this platform of vehicle has been used for police cars and other emegency vehicles due to the size and larger engines.
So work set out to find one….. Many years rolled past, and working progess was delayed by working out how to power up and make the equipment operational. Also here in the U.K 300c’s in white were not sold, which meant it needed to be completely resprayed.
Fast forward to June 2024 and Ecto 1 C was finished complete with P.K.E Meter, Ghost Trap, Portable Containment unit, Proton Packs, emergency lighting, and siren just ready for the 40th anniversary of Ghostbusters !
Why ?
Knowing there’s so many Ghostbusters fans out there (and now driving our Ecto 1C around the streets I’ve found there are many more people that love the Ghostbsusters) I wanted to bring the enjoyment of the Ghostbusters to all the Fans.
Being able to actually provide this amazing experience of having an Ecto 1 for real on their drive, or out in patrol in one, and seeing that smile makes this a fantastic experience.
Ecto 1C is available for Weddings, Partys, conferences, events, special occasions, Birthdays and much more !
Ghostbusters Afterlife - Ghost Trap
Ghostbusters Afterlife A deeper look into the world of Ghostbusters and Ghostbusting with the Ghost Trap ! We look at yet another essential part of the Ghosbusters equipment the Ghost Trap or Moen Trap - How does it work ? We explain here……The Ghost Trap as seen in Ghostbusters 1, Ghostbuster 2, and Ghostbuster afterlife has been described as a ‘miniature Ecto Containment Unit’
It utilizes the same basic design as it's larger counterpart; a series of lasers designed specifically for the incarceration of spirits, however the overall size and power of an entity can determine how many entities can be contained in one ghost trap.
The smaller the entities, the more can be contained in the trap. But the bigger the ghost, the less spirits can be contained. When two or more ghosts are trapped together, their molecules merge and cannot be separated without releasing both.

The smaller the entities, the more can be contained in the trap. But the bigger the ghost, the less spirits can be contained. When two or more ghosts are trapped together, their molecules merge and cannot be separated without releasing both.
The Trap is an Electromagnetic Field Generator that is encased in an extremely strong and powerful Steel Grid and the EMF draws ghosts into the trap.
It’s connected to a six to eight feet cable, which is connected to a "Stomp-on Pedal". The Cable Wire can be worn on a tiny hook/notch on the standard issue pistol belt. The ghost trap is operated as follows, one team member holds the spirit in a confinement stream, and a second team member rolls a standard Ghost Trap under the spirit.
The operator must shout "Trap Open!" He then activates the Stomp-on Pedal, activating the first stage if the trap.
Now open is ready to receive the ghostly prisoner. The operator then presses the Stomp-on Pedal once more to activate the EMF, the ghost is then sucked into the Trap and the Trap is then closed by removal of the Trap operator's foot from the pedal.
It also runs on a rechargeable battery that lasts up to 48 Hours. So after trapping a ghost, be sure to get to the division headquarters as soon as possible, so you can contain the ghost in the Ecto Containment Unit and recharge the Trap's battery.
Safety Precautions: There are three warnings about the Ghost Trap that should be taken very seriously:
Do not look into the trap:
It is not stated what exactly would happen if a human were to look into a Ghost Trap, however it is believed by most that the glare could cause eye damage and even blindness.

GHOST TRAP "Don't look at the trap!"
Do not overload the trap:
Ghost Traps are extremely small pieces of equipment, and can only contain a certain amount of P.K.E., even if it is from a number of small ghosts. Generally the overloaded Trap would explode, then releasing its contents. Also only a certain number of ghosts can be contained in a Ghost Trap.
Do not forget to recharge the trap:
This is extremely important, a Ghost Trap must be at 100% charge to work at peak efficiency. If a Trap is at less then 100% charge when it leaves the division headquarters then it is at risk of loosing it's charge when in operation, resulting in a similar explosion to a overload.
