“Horrord’s Top Ghost Store!”
    Ray and Peter do some shopping for Easter, but there’s something strange about the department store they go to.  The place is run down, it has a funky smell, the merchandise is weird.  Oh, and there are ghouls about to pounce on them.

“Pop Goes the Demon”
    An unsuspecting Billy buys a possessed balloon that causes trouble everywhere he and his mother go.  Patrons spot the ghost and call the Ghostbusters, who have the choice of dealing with the spook or keeping a kid happy.

“Dead True!”
    The tale of a shipwrecked crew, the means by which they survived, and the grisly haunting as a result.

“Winston’s Diary”
Friday, March the 17th, 1989
    Winston, Egon and Slimer have been called out to Easter Island where the stone statues there have been reported to be alive.  They begin to investigate, detecting PKE traces but no movement from the statues at all.  Just when it seems the bust is a bust, the statues come alive and pluck themselves out of the ground!  Egon and Winston have to stay a good deal ahead of the charging statues while Egon thinks up an idea to stop them before they become pancakes.

“Bad News”
    A news report about the Ghostbusters’ latest bust.

“Blimey!  It’s Slimer!”
    Mad Minnie makes a giant chocolate Easter egg for Slimer.  You can imagine what happens next.
Special Features:
     Free Ghostbusters Slimy Jelly.
     Bio: Cruella Moulding.
FYI: “Horrord’s Top Ghost Store”
    Horrord’s, the name of the store featured in the story, is most likely a parody of the famous upmarket department store Harrods in London.
FYI: “Winston’s Diary”
    Easter Island is a small isolated island of volcanic rock which is the home to giant stone monoliths known as Moai and many myths and legends surrounding the creation of those monoliths.

    As this is New York, it’s highly unlikely a salesman would be charging British currency in an American city.
