Ghostbusters Sign for Hook & Ladder 8

Every year, on September 11th, The Buffalo Ghostbusters post a reminder about the significance of the "Ghostbusters firehouse" (actually known as Hook & Ladder Company 8).

This house, as all NYC firehouses, deserves our utmost honor and respect for all that they do, all day, every day, not just on September 11th.

For years, this house has embraced Ghostbusters fans and even puts out half of the screen used sign from Ghostbusters II every Halloween. Recently, that sign was damaged, though the house still displays it regularly in their engine bay.

We thought it would be cool if the Ghostbusters community could show this house and the heroes who work there how much we all appreciate them.

So starting now, we're going to try to raise the money to buy the house a new, double sided, Ghostbusters sign!

Ideally, we'll be trying to raise about $1000 to cover the cost of the sign from Hollywood Collectibles Group. The Buffalo Ghostbusters would then deliver it and we would welcome anyone who wants to join us that day in NYC for a coordinated gifting ceremony. Off the top of our head, we're thinking maybe June 8th, 2021? Ghostbusters Day!

UPDATE: We have exceeded our initial goal! The support for this continues to grow and there's serious potential for this to get even bigger! We'll be keeping this fundraiser open until the end of the month. We'll close this fundraiser on May 1, 2021.

As part of the donation, we will also include a plaque that denotes every indivudal or Ghostbusters franchise that donated. Please include this in the notes of your donation.

Additionally, by doing this, we would allow the house to keep the screen used sign on permanent display, not exposed to the elements or at risk of further damage.

We invite all fans to share this post, help us get this goal!

We already know Ghostbusters fans are the best in the world... let's show it one more time!
