Ray Stantz: "Are you troubled by strange noises in the night?"
Egon Spengler: "Do you experience feelings of dread in your basement or attic?"
Peter Venkman: "Have you or your family actually seen a spook, spectre or ghost?"
Ray Stantz: "If the answer is yes, then don't wait another minute!"
Peter Venkman: "Just pick up the phone and call the professionals!"
Egon Spengler: "Call the…"
All: "Ghostbusters!"
Egon Spengler: "Serving all your supernatural elimination needs 24 hours a day."
All: "Ghostbusters! We're ready to believe you!"
Peter Venkman: "Franchises available soon! Call for details."
Security Guard: "Woah! Russell! Hey, man… you near the east wing?"
Russell (on radio): "Yeah."
Security Guard: "B-b-by the new Gozer exhibit?"
Russell (on radio): "Yeah. Why?"
Security Guard: "There's something headed your way!"
Russell: "If you're dressed as Atilla the Hun again, I'm going to smack you. Wait. I hear something. I'm gonna take a look."
Security Guard (on radio): "Wanna hear something really creepy? I was reading about Shandor, you know the guy who donated most of the Gozer stuff? He was into the occult…you know, the supernatural. Weird dude."
Russell: "Ah! Uhhh…Why don't we talk about it some other time? Any other time."
Russell: "Aaaarragghhh! Hey! You can't be in here! Stop!"
Russell: "Aaaarragghhh!"
Janine Melnitz: "Ghostbusters. Is your haunting an apparition, poltergeist, phantasm, wraith, banshee, demon, specter, tortured soul or…What? No, we do not summon dead family members then catch them so you can ask the combination to the safe…"
Janine Melnitz: "Yeah, well, same to you, pal. Another exciting night, huh?"
Janine Melnitz: "Oh, and you get refrigerator privileges, but listen: if you didn't put it in there, you don't want to eat it. Especially if it looks like cottage cheese. Ick."
Egon Spengler: "This might be a little dangerous."
Ray Stantz: "Great. Danger is our life."
Egon Spengler: "We'll start at fifty-percent capacity. That should keep any burning or tissue damage to a minimum."
Peter Venkman: "Hey. If you're gonna burn any tissues, do it to the new kid. You can't use Ray. Our mortgage is in his name."
Ray Stantz: "I guess he's right. What's your name again, kid?"
Peter Venkman: "No names, Ray. I don't want to get too attached to this kid. You know just in case. Remember what happened to the last guy? Hey, how come this mump gets all the new stuff?"
Egon Spengler: "He's our new Experimental Equipment Technician."
Peter Venkman: "He gets cool title, too?"
Ray Stantz: "It means he gets to carry around a bunch of untested, extremely dangerous hardware that if not handled correctly could blow him somewhere into New Jersey."
Peter Venkman: "Oh, this knucklehead lugs around our very dangerous prototype hardware that could potentially blow us into New Jersey? Thanks! Keep the title, Kid. It'll work hard for you."
Egon Spengler: "Was that us?"
Ray Stantz: "Had to be some sort of Psi energy pulse. Substantial! A significant collected and centralized necromantic convulsion level seven or more."
Janine Melnitz: "I know the answer, but I'm gonna ask anyway…is a level seven, uh, whatever…bad? Or very bad?"
Egon Spengler: "On a scale of 1 to ten. I would say…"
Peter Venkman: "Let me guess. It's a seven."
Ray Stantz: "Let's just say we're about to get real busy."
Peter Venkman: "And that is not the fun kind of getting busy – is it, Ray?"
Ray Stantz: "Look out. Slimer's escaped again!"
Peter Venkman: "No, wait. Come back."
Egon Spengler: "Where to Ray?"
Ray Stantz: "The Sedgewick Hotel. It's the first place that little spud will go."
