At one point the Ghostbusters make the front page of the New York Post for putting the stop to a haunting in Manhattan’s Chinatown. However, the image used is strikingly familiar and out of place: it actually occurs right at the crescendo of the movie.

Whilst any photo of the guys would have sufficed, it is amusing that for whatever reason the editors thought an image of the Ghostbusters so clearly crossing the streams would be appropriate. Since the whole film builds to the boys putting their lives on the line to stop Gozer by using this tactic, it's pretty unlikely they did it to flush out your regular, garden variety spook.

Coming from a content creation background that now spans over two decades, Psy cut her teeth on personal video production and community radio. Originally joining the team as a writer and presenter, she added video editing duties to her responsibilities over time and became the longest-standing editor of the irreverent gaming show Tues Your Own Adventure. Psy has worked on many previews and reviews, long-form editorials (either her own, or supporting as an editor), as a frequent quizmaster and more. Praised for the two-pronged attack of her hard work ethic and light-hearted editing style, Psy is otherwise known as a font of retro video game knowledge which has caused her to rack up many quiz wins. Outside of WhatCulture, Psy runs First Aid Spray Podcast - a long-running channel that focuses on Resident Evil in all of it's forms.
