Synopsis:
Four time travelers arrive in 1980s New York City on the run from someone called "the Slug". They follow the Ghostbusters to a job and wait until they trap the ghost of Captain Nemo before stealing the trap and teleporting away, leaving the Ghostbusters befuddled. They�re soon in for much worse when the travelers place reality shifting devices in the firehouse, locking each of the boys into a nightmare world! It�s Winston vs. monsters, Peter vs. a werewolf school, Ray vs. an alien planet, and Egon vs. nature in a barren wasteland. Even if the boys survive, they still have to deal with�the Slug!

Notes:
-Captain Nemo was a submarine captain in the Jules Vern novel 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea.

-There's a mention of Stephanie Queen, a horror writer.

-Allusions to the first movie are made about Dana Barrett, Peter's love interest, and how they first met Slimer their pet ghost.
