Introduced in 1984 in the very first Ghostbusters feature film directed by Ivan Reitman, the ECTO-1 is the official emergency response vehicle of the team of parapsychologists comprising Peter Venkman, Ray Stantz, Egon Spengler and Winston Zeddemore. Originally, the car was a 1959 Cadillac Miller-Meteor that served as both an ambulance and a hearse, bought cheaply as a wreck by Ray Stantz. Following extensive mechanical repairs, it was transformed into a state-of-the-art mobile laboratory. Its roof is fitted with an array of scientific instruments, paranormal sensors and radar systems to track down ghosts across New York. Fitted with a siren whose shrill wail has become iconic, the ECTO-1 is indispensable for transporting the team and their ghost traps to the scenes of ectoplasmic invasions, establishing itself as the ultimate symbol of public safety in the face of Gozer’s occult forces.
