What is Ghostbusters International®?

What is the company's mission?
GBI's mission is to increase understanding of the supernatural within the scientific community and to rid its clients and customers of unwanted paranormal pests.
What are Ghostbusters International® core technologies?
GBI's key technologies are:
Proton packs: Small licensed nuclear accelerators used by GBI franchises to hold paranormal entities until they can be captured.
Ghost Trap: The box that stores and transports one subdued ghost until it can be permanently housed in the main protection grid.
Giga Meter: A Device that measures psychomagnetheric energy in GEVs (Giga Electron Volts).
PKE Meter: A Device that measures psychokinetic energy (PKE).
Slime Blower: This is a back-pack rig for the broad distribution of psychomagnetherically charged ectoplasm across a large area.
Protection Grid aka Ecto Containment Unit: Large and immobile unit for the permanent incarceration of paranormal phenomenon. The Grid can safely store extremely large numbers of ghosts.
Who are GBI's clients?
GBI's clients include some of the largest companies and most well known brands in the world. But, due to the often embarrasing nature of paranormal pest problems, GBI maintains its client's privacy.
How do I start my own Ghostbusters International® franchise?
Refer to our Join section.
Can I buy a piece of ghostbusting equipment?
Ghostbusters International® holds patents on all of its investigation and elimination gear, so GBI is not allowed to share much information with the general public other then what appears on this site. Special training and licensing is required for the safe handling and operation of GBI equipment. It is not for sale to the general public.
What does a franchise get from GBI?
1. The right to use the Ghostbusters International® name.
2. The exclusive right to purchase and operate patented Ghostbusters equipment and technology.
3. An exclusive territory within which they act as representatives of GBI.
4. A ghostbustersinternational.com email address if you would like one and if an email address is available.
What color uniforms do I have to have?
We recognize khaki, gray, navy blue, and black. GBI also recognizes elbow pads in the following colors: white, (which are dyed gray normally) gray, and black.
Can a franchise create their own equipment and technology?
Ghostbusters International® encourages the creation of custom equipment and technology to better serve the needs of its clients. Individual offices can create and use equipment as needed. However, they'll be patented by and all rights will be owned by GBI.

Is the firehall open to the public?
Technically no. A small number of areas, like the garage area could be used for visitors. Availability is based on whose around at that time. As the fire hall aka Franchise 0 is still fully operational.
If someone like Dr. Stantz is around, will he bring out snacks? I hear he does that kind of thing.
He probably would, we're not sure. Our business associates normally give us enough beverages and snack foods. If they're not out, ask nicely.
If the Ectos are there, can I check them out? Maybe sit in them, run the sirens?
Louis, is this you? Well depends on what you mean by check them out. Surely you can look at them and take photos of the exteriors of the '59 Caddys. Due to the nature of our business, sitting in the Ecto 1s is not a good idea. You may be able to say when Ray and Winston bring them to various car shows. Run the sirens? I'd call that a big no.
May I see the storage facility?
Not without saying the magic word. And probably not even then.
