* InformedWrongness: In "The Bogeyman Comes Back", Egon was meant to be in the wrong for not telling his friends about his fear, since the fear then led to the Boogieman emerging. However, by the time Egon was truly terrified, his friends were asleep and waking them up would have been rude. He was also trying to quell his fears by drinking cocoa and watching TV, which is a perfectly reasonable response to fear.

** In "Flip Side", the alternate versions of the human characters are undead, so why is the alternate version of Slimer not human? Is it because in that universe, ghosts' alternate counterparts are all living, but not necessarily human? Or is it because Slimer sometimes acts like a human, so a flip of him would be living but act like a ghost? Or is that not even Slimer's parallel counterpart, but rather a creature that the Peoplebusters were planning on eating?

** ''Mrs. Roger's Neighborhood:'' Wat is a sinister and clever [[DemonLordsAndArchDevils demon lord]] who wants to TakeOverTheWorld. Wanting to get the Ghostbusters out of the picture, Wat creates a house in New York that's actually an elaborate {{death trap}} and lures the Ghostbusters into it by hiring them to investigate it while under the guise of an old lady named Mrs. Rogers. Claiming to be too scared to stay at the house, Wat convinces the Ghostbusters to allow him to stay at the Firehouse, where he intends on freeing the ghosts from the Containment Unit to use as his own personal army. When Wat learns that he needs one of the Ghostbusters to open the Containment Unit, he [[DemonicPossession possesses Peter Venkman]] [[NearVillianVictory and nearly succeeds in unleashing the captured ghosts.]]
** ''Mr. Sandman, Dream Me a Dream:'' TheSandman is a spirit who helps people go to sleep. Upset that humanity constantly fights wars with each other, the Sandman intends to use his powers to [[KnightTemplar put humanity to sleep for 500 years]] and allow humanity to be replaced by living dreams. When confronted by the Ghostbusters, he decides to deal with them by turning all the harmless dreams into aggressive nightmares and having them attack the Ghostbusters. Later, the Sandman tricks Ray and hits him with his sleeping sand. The Sandman manages to put Peter and Egon to sleep as well. With only Winston and Janine left to oppose him, the Sandman [[NearVillainVictory nearly achieves his goal.]]
** ''When Halloween Was Forever:'' [[HolidayPersonification Samhain]] is a Celtic spirit that is the basis for Halloween. 1200 years Samhain was imprisoned in some ruins in Ireland. In modern times, the ruins were displayed in NYC and Samhain was freed by his minions. Samhain used his powers to create a cloud of darkness that spreads across the world and stops time, trying to make Halloween last forever. Samhain summons all ghosts in NYC to him and deduces that Slimer is an ally of the Ghostbusters, taking him hostage. Samhain also protected his ghost minions from the Ghostbusters seeing them as his [[AFatherToHisMen children.]] The Ghostbusters defeated Samhain, but he reappears in the episode ''Halloween II 1/2.'' After being freed from the containment unit, Samhain uses his magic to transform the Ghostbusters firehouse into his [[AllYourBaseAreBelongToUs personal fortress]], denying the Ghostbusters most of their resources. Samhain's fortress is surrounded by a forcefield that protects him from the Ghostbusters attacks. Samhain also captures the Junior Ghostbusters to force the Ghostbusters to surrender to him.
