Home » Ghostbusters Themed Foods & Ideas for an Epic Movie Night
We’ve found the best Ghostbusters themed foods, decor, and costumes to host an epic movie night! The whole family will love the goofy ghost removal service movie around Halloween or really anytime of the year!
When there’s something strange in the neighborhood, who you gonna call? GHOSTBUSTERS!
Ghostbusters is one of those iconic 80s movies with an amazing cast. Bill Murrary, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis, Ernie Hudson, and Sigourney Weaver are all amazing in it!
It’s also a great movie night choice because it’s under 2 hours and rated PG — So it’s a great family movie night option! But no movie night is complete without some amazing snacks, cute printables, and costumes!
