Ghostbusters finds itself in a difficult position, hovering between realms of success and stagnation. The franchise's journey has been nothing short of a rollercoaster, from the comedic horror of its 1984 inception to various attempts at rejuvenation, including a gender-swapped reboot that struggled to find its audience.

When Callie’s (played by Carrie Coon) father dies, he leaves her a run-down house in the middle of nowhere. When her finances run dry, she has no choice but to move in with her children, Trevor (Finn Wolfhard from Stranger Things) and Phoebe (McKenna Grace). Phoebe soon discovers her grandfather was Ghostbuster Egon Spengler and that the ghosts haven’t gone away . . .
