[thuds]

Oh, Joseph. Joseph,
slow down at once.

Why are you rushing so?

Begging your pardon, Countess.

We're passing Castle Dracula.

And, look.

Oh, nonsense.

That old vampire
has been gone for years.

I rule Transylvania now,
and I intend to
keep it peaceful.

[thuds]

What's that?

[dramatic music]

Oh, that poor man is having
trouble with his automobile.

-See if you can help him.
-Yes, ma'am.

Beg your pardon, sir.
May I be of assistance?

[thunder rumbling]

Yes, I think you can.

Hello, Ghostbusters.

Seven days, 24 hours.
Eddie Spencer talking.

[indistinct chatter on phone]

Who?
Lord Mayor of Transylvania?

What?

Count Dracula.

We all thought he was
finally gone for good

but he's returned.

And he's captured
our beloved ruler

the Dutch Countess
and her chauffeur.

-Can you help us?
-Can we?

We're on our way.

Come on, guys. We got a job.
Let's get into uniform.

Bring your garlic salami along,Tracy. You can eat it later.

Okey-dokey.

Oh, ha ha ha.

Oh, boy, Transylvania's
really in trouble now.

Oh, no. I haven't finished
my beauty nap.

[swooshes]

-To Transylvania.
-Oh, no.

[ominous music]

So, the Ghostbusters
are coming to stop me

from reclaiming
my kingdom, eh?

Well, they shall not succeed.

Transylvania shall be mine
once more.

[music continues]

-Right, slaves?
-Right, master.

[Jake] According to this map,we should be overTransylvania now.

And, look, there's Jessica.

Those reporters sure
find a story fast.

Ladies and gentleman, this isyour TV reporter, Jessica Ray.

Speaking to you
from Transylvania

where we landed moments ago
to investigate reports

that the dreaded vampire
Dracula has returned.

Uh, look!
Up in the sky.

[swooshes]

Uh, Ghostbusters.

As Lord Mayor of Transylvania,I welcome you.

Thank you, Lord Mayor, butI'm afraid we must hurry.

Vampires hide during the day

and it's only four hoursuntil sunrise.

-Which way is Castle Dracula?-That way.

Oh, what a story!
I'm going, too.

[engine starting]

[swooshes]

So, that's Castle Dracula, huh?

Looks like nobody's home.
Let's go back.

No, we're going down.

If you're scared,
you can wait outside.

[screeches]

[Jessica]
The head of a vampire bat.

Yes, the Dracula's
family crest.

Knock on the door, Eddie.

Uh, knock on the door, Tracy.

Okey-dokey.

This is Jessica Ray reportingfrom Castle Dracula

where we're going
to interview...

[loud bang]

...uh, whoever.

[screaming]

The-the-the door
opened by itself.

[nervous chuckle]

If we're gonna catch a vampire,we'll have to go inside.

Ow!

[ominous music]

That is the last Count Dracula.

Some say he was thousandsof years old.

Doesn't looka day over 500.

[clicks]

[music continues]

[exclaiming]

Hey, look, Tracy made
the bookcase slide open.

And, look,
a secret passageway.

Let's go.

Fired candles.
They look new.

Hmm, that means someone
has been here recently.

Listen, hear that?
Who's playing the organ?

-Not me.
-Not me.

-Me neither.
-Well, somebody is.

And I think we better
find out who.

[organ music]

[dramatic music]

Welcome to Castle Dracula.
Ha ha ha.

Nice of you to drop in,
Ghostbusters.

Yeah? Well, when we drop in,
ghosts drop out.

Huh! It didn't work!

Oops! We got a problem, guys.Vampires aren't ghosts

so the Dematerializer
doesn't work on them.

You're right, Jake.

But while you cannot attack me,I can attack you.

[thunder rumbling]

[wind whooshing]

[Tracy] Uh-oh!

[Dracula snickering]

[Jake]
Tracy, get us out of here.

[Tracy] Okey-dokey.

[crashes]

Uh, that was just in time.

Oh, no! Jessica!
Where's Jessica?

We gotta get ridof that vampirebefore he gets Jessica, guys.

Tracy, you still havethat garlic salami?

Uh-huh.

[grunting]

[sniffing]

OK, good.Vampires hate garlic.

-They also hate mirrors.
-I've got a mirror.

[beeping]

Great. And finally,
we all know that sunlight

will get rid
of a vampire, right?

-[Eddie] Right.
-Then, here's my plan.

-Jake, Eddie, Tracy!
-It's Jessica.

Can you get me out of here?
Dracula's after me.

Coming right up.
Let's go, guys.

-Tracy, the rope!
-Okey-dokey.

[swishing]

Nice shot, Tracy.

Oh!

So, trying to escape, eh?

You are in my power, Jessica.

So listen to my command.

I will tell you exactly
what I want you to do.

[Jake]
Be right there, Jessica.

Jessica, come on.
We'll get you out of here.

No, I will stay here.

Jessica,are you feeling all right?

I feel fine.
I will stay here.

I want to stay
with my master.

Gee, I don't likethe looks of this.

-Yeah.
-She's in a trance.

Dracula must have
gotten to her.

I'm afraid so.

As a matter of fact,
you will also be my slaves.

Look into the eyes of Dracula.

[grunting]

Quick, guys.
The Specter Shades.

-Ah, ho-ho.
-[Jake] Ha! It works.

As long as we have
the Specter Shades on,

your evil eyes
can't work on us.

Then, I will have to take
your stupid shades off.

Fat chance, bat breath.

There's three of us
and only one of you.

Correction, Ghostbuster.

There are three of you
and there are four of us.

Get them.

-Yes, master.
-Yes, master.

Oh-oh, I don't likethe looks of this.

Time to put the plan
into action.

Let's go, guys.
Don't get caught.

And don't hurt anyone.

Remember, these are people,
not ghosts.

[dramatic music]

This looks like a perfect placefor our vampire trap.

Let's go, Ghostbusters!

Phew! We finished just in time.

[intense music]

[Joseph]
There they are.
We have you now.

Now what, Jake?

Now we let 'em catch us.

-Are you crazy?
-Don't worry, Eddie.

This is all a part
of my plan.

[music continues]

Oh! Excellent work, slaves.

[music continues]

With the Ghostbusters
added to my slave army,

we can soon start to enslave
all of Transylvania.

The kingdom will be under
my evil rule once more.

Ha ha ha.

But first, to turn
the Ghostbusters

into mindless zombies.

Have you anything to say
before I enslave your mind?

Yes, as a matter of fact,
batty, I do.

-Tracy, your garlic salami.
-Okey-dokey.

[sniffing]

Ah! No!

Garlic!

[intense music]

[snaps]

[buzzes]

[creaks]

Aah! A mirror.
I hate mirrors.

Whoa!

Ha! You fools!Your trap failed.You forgot I could fly.

No, we didn't.

[grunting]

[laughs]

[intense music]

We wanted you to turn
into a bat.

Now, we just attach you
to this balloon...

and send you into the skyto wait for sunrise.

Nice try, Ghostbuster,
but you forgot one thing.

Not only can I turn
into a bat...

but I can turn back again.

-Oh-oh.
-Ugh.

-Is this a part of your plan?-Um, I'm afraid not, Eddie.

[intense music]

Look into my eyes.

[exclaiming in unison]
Uh!

No. My friends!

I must not...
let them be enslaved.

I must break free.
I must... Uh!

What?

Aah!

So, you broke free
of my mind spell.

I'll just make a stronger one.

That's what you think,
bat breath.

No-o-o-o-o!

Bye-bye, batty.

Curse you, Ghostbusters.
I'll get you for this.

I'll get you.
Uh-ugh... uh! The sun!

Not the sun.
No-o-o-o-o.

[Eddie laughing]
Well, that takes care
of Dracula.

Yup, and...
Hey, look!

The countess and her chauffeurare back to normal.

Oh-oh! Goodness,
what a nightmare.

Well,you're safe now, Countess.We're the Ghostbusters.

And we just busted
that vampire.

[Countess laughing]
Oh, wonderful.

That means that
Dracula won't be back

until the next time there's
a ring around the full moon.

Uh, how often does that happen?

[stammering]
Every hundred years.

Oh, well. That gives us lotsof time to stock up on garlic.

[all laughing]

Boy, Futura.You should have been there.

I-I was really scared.

Sounds to me as if Jessica's
love for her friends

was stronger
than Dracula's power.

Right. Friendship
is a pretty strong thing.

I mean, if you or Jess
were in trouble

well, nothin' could stop me
from helpin' you.

-Nothing!
-Me, too.

Me, too.

Well,
that goes both ways, guys.

Let's hear it for friendship.

[all in unison]
Hip hip hurray.
Hip hip hurray.
