"Ghostbusters Academy" Teaser


I've been promising you an update on my Ghostbusters project for some time now, so here it is - the official blurb to my very own fanfiction concept! It's a story that has so far been two years in the making. It's not complete yet, but you can expect it to emerge from the shadows in the coming months. 

As you might have guessed from the above image that depicts a much more aggressive spook, from a tonal perspective, Ghostbusters Academy will be grittier and darker than what fans might be used to, upping the threat-level and exploring both the horror and action element a little more. But it's ultimately going to be a celebration of Ghostbusters, and I’ve even slimed the entire story with countless nods and winks to the originals.

Without further ado, here's the blurb to Ghostbusters Academy: Year One. I'll be putting an excerpt up soon, so keep your eyes peeled and your PKE Meters at the ready! 

The Blurb

Following on loosely from the iconic 80’s classic and its 1989 sequel, Ghostbusters Academy: Year One is an awesome new vision which sees the forming of a new generation of paranormal investigators and eliminators – in London! When the UK city is suddenly plagued with hordes of the undead from Haunted Humans (far-from-human ghosts) to Golems (not-so-inanimate objects), it’s up to parapsychologist Doug Fletcher, wise-cracker Lex Kirby, friendly giant Jimmy Logan and the young, mysterious Katlyn Grady, to save the day. But there’s more to the slime-soaked surge of paranormal activity than meets the eye, when the Ghostbusters learn that there’s a dangerous and ambitious cult at large in the city that's trying to bring about the apocalypse.

Light your pack and kick the trap, because this time there’s something strange in your neighbourhood…
