This October, the classic 1984 sci-fi comedy film Ghostbusters will be returning to theaters. A brief posting on the movie’s Facebook page announced the following:

“Alright, Ghostbusters fans. It’s time to get your cats and dogs together and prepare for mass hysteria: This October, for the first time in over 25 years, the original and unforgettable Ghostbusters makes its triumphant return to theaters!”

Ain’t It Cool News noted that the motivation is likely to  assess public interest in the Ghostbusters franchise as they continue trying to put together a Ghostbusters III. A couple weeks ago, we reported that Dan Aykroyd had confirmed that Ghostbusters III was officially happening, maybe. Who knows at this point.
