“Grey Day”
    Ray awakens early in the morning from sleep troubles only to discover his coloring is wrong.  He wakes up the others to discover they suffer from the same condition, as does the rest of the city.  They track down a spectrum spook devouring their color and starting on their inks.  The Ghostbusters have to rub him out before they end up on the receiving end of the eraser.

“Winston’s Diary”
Sunday, 2nd October 1988
    Peter and Winston answer a call and end up finding a possessed person at the location.  The catch?  That person is none other than Walter Peck!  With Peter refusing to help him, Winston must take on the invading Pollutergeist alone.  It seems like a simple task…until the ghost jumps from Peck into his proton pack!

“Fright School!”
    Peter and Ray receive a call from Ray’s old high school, Palmerston High.  Apparently their toughest geography teacher, Agnes Hardcaine, has come back from the dead to continue terrorizing young minds.  Unfortunately she proves too much for the Ghostbusters and captures former student Ray.  Peter has to get some backup before Ray is made a permanent dunce.

“Hell Razor”
    All Peter wanted was a shave, but his razor ends up haunted!  It’s a race around the bathroom as Peter avoids getting the closest shave he ever had in his life.

“Blimey!  It’s Slimer!”
    Slimer heads to the post office to mail a letter and save Peter a trip.
