Line 197:
** Dr. Venkman claims he holds degrees in both Psychology and Parapsychology. It is indeed possible to obtain a degree in Parapsychology, from the University of Virginia or the University of Arizona. There is also no shortage of academies of higher education that teach (or once taught) science of the occult
** At the end of the movie, Dr. Stantz tells formerly demon-possessed accountant Tully that he unwillingly participated in “the biggest interdimensional cross rip since the Tunguska Blast of 1909." [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tunguska_event That was an actual event]; there’s no proof it was the result of the implosion of an interdimensional rift, but to be fair, there’s no proof it wasn’t either.
** The first movie had a lot of spooky architecture and dilapidated structures, but some of the buildings are real, and still exist in New York. There is a working fire-station at 14 North Moore Street in the Tribeca area, and people actually live at “ghost central”, 55 Central Park West, although naturally, there is no evil temple on the roof, nor was it owned or built by someone named Ivo StandorShandor. The interiors of both buildings were, of course, shot on soundstages, and fx was used to make the top of the apartment building look like the Continental Life Building in St. Louis.

* [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking]]:
