“The Lost and the Lonely”

    A ghost named Laurie flees from a terror with her friend, Michael.  Unfortunately, their fear catches up to them and recaptures Michael, but Laurie escapes, allowing her to find help for her friends underground.  Meanwhile, Ray receives an invite to his Junior High School reunion.  It’s not long after he leaves that Laurie appears at the firehouse and informs of the Ghostbusters of the creature she escaped from.  And to make matters worse, this creature, the Soul Catcher, resides underneath the abandoned hallways of Ray’s school!
Special Features:
     Bonus pin-up.
FYI:  Janine wears a suit similar to Egon's in this issue.  Her first suit in the animated series was pink with blue trim, the reversal of Egon's design.
BLOOPER:
     Page 16 & 17-The wings on the PKE meter seem to change their base position, not to mention look different from what we’ve come to know.
