Ghostbusters: The Return

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ghostbusters: The Return was a novel written by long-time science fiction writer Sholly Fisch in celebration of the franchise's 20th anniversary. Set two years after Ghostbusters II, the novel revolves around Peter Venkman running for mayor of New York City and an ancient entity trying to conquer the world by bringing urban legends to life.

The book looks to be re-released in the near future, retitled Ghostbusters: Urban Legends.

Book description as follows: Five years after the events of Ghostbusters II, the group finds themselves once again neck-deep in ghosts and ghouls as some of the most unsettling urban legends-like the hook-handed killer in Lovers' Lane and The Vanishing Hitchhiker-all come to deadly life! But the worst is yet to come for Ray Stantz, Egon Spengler, and Winston Zeddemore-and quite possibly the people of New York: the Ghostbusters' leader, Peter Venkman, has been chosen by an independent political party to be their candidate¨ for Mayor! With the city reeling under a supernatural reign of terror, can the Ghostbusters stop the arrival of an ancient fear-demon in time to save Election Day-or should Venkman start looking for another job already?
