Dr. Egon Spengler

Background

Egon Spengler is a researcher in the Paranormal Studies Department in New York City, New York. He collects spores, molds and fungus.

During the events of Ghostbusters (1984) played by Harold Ramis

Dr. Raymond Stantz and Dr. Peter Venkman meet up with Spengler and then speak with the Library Administrator. They interview the Librarian and then go down into the basement. They find the card catalog drawers full of ectoplasmic residue, which Egon has Peter collect a sample of. They find the Library Ghost and their initial plan is to talk with the ghost, but it shushes Peter. They then decide to charge at it, but it transforms into an even scarier form and they run away.

They return to the university and Egon tells the others he thinks they may be able to build a device that catches ghosts. They find their office being cleaned out and Dean Yeager tells them they are all fired. Peter tells Raymond that he thinks they should go into the business of catching ghosts and Raymond takes a third mortgage out on his inherited home. They look for an office and buy an old firehouse shown to them by a Real Estate Woman. Raymond drives an old hearse he bought used to the office. Dana Barrett walks into their office and Peter interviews her about the incident at her apartment while Egon and Raymond scan her with machines. Raymond offers to go to the Hall of Records to check on construction plans for the building, Egon offers to look up the name Zuul in Tobin's Spirit Guide, while Peter offers to take Dana to her apartment to check it out. The Ghostbusters get a call and Janine Melnitz presses the emergency button. They drive to the Sedgewick Hotel and the Hotel Manager tells them about the ghost on the 12th floor. They walk to the elevator where Man at Elevator comments on their suits and they tell him they are exterminators. They exit onto the 12th floor and Raymond and Egon shoot their blasters at Chambermaid who turns around the corner. They apologize to her and then split up. Egon radios Raymond and tells him Slimer went into the ballroom and Raymond and Peter head in that direction. Raymond tells Hotel Manager to wait outside as he, Egon and Peter close the ballroom doors. They see Slimer and shoot at it, but miss, destroying a large chandelier in the process. Egon warns them not to cross their blaster streams and they continue to shoot at Slimer, causing increasing damage to the ballroom. They eventually catch Slimer and at first the Hotel Manager refuses to pay the bill, until the Ghostbusters threaten to release Slimer.

As Raymond is showing the ins and outs of the business to Winston Zeddmore, Egon tells them he is worried about the amount of paranormal activity. Police Sergeant goes to Ghostbusters' headquarters and drops off Louis Tully. Egon does a scan of Louis and Louis provides the background of Zuul and Vinz Clortho. Peter calls Egon and tells him about Dana and Egon tells him about Louis. A group of vehicles pull up to Ghostbusters headquarters and Walter Peck walks into the building with a Police Captain and a Con Edison Man. Janine tries to stop them, but they barge their way downstairs. Peck orders the Con Edison Man to shut down all the equipment, but Egon warns them against it. Peck orders the Con Edison Man to shut it down and after he does, alarms start blaring. A massive cloud and ray of light breaks through the headquarters and goes into the sky. Peck tells the Police Captain that he wants the Ghostbusters arrested.

While in prison, Egon goes over the building plans of Dana and Louis' apartment with the other Ghostbusters and Raymond tells them the building is an antenna built to absorb spiritual turbulence. Egon tells them the builder was Ivo Shandor who started a Gozer cult. Jail Guard brings the Ghostbusters to see the Mayor. Louis opens Dana's door and they kiss and walks towards the roof of their building. The Mayor's Aide tells the Mayor, the Ghostbusters are present. Peck is also brought into the office and the Mayor questions the Ghostbusters and Peck about what happened. The Fire Commissioner tells the Mayor he has never seen any combustion like that which came out of Ghostbusters headquarters and the Police Commissioner says the walls of the 53rd Police Precinct were bleeding. The Archbishop walks into the Mayor's office and tells him he thinks what is happening is a sign from God. Peter wins the Mayor over by mentioning that if they are wrong nothing happens, but if the Ghostbusters can stop it, then the Mayor's decision will have saved the lives of millions of registered voters. The Mayor then sides with the Ghostbusters. The Ghostbusters are brought to Dana and Louis' apartment building and they are almost swallowed when the ground rips open. The Ghostbusters slowly make their way to the roof. Dana and Louis are transformed into the dog like forms of Zuul and Vinz Clortho. Gozer walks out from a sky temple/portal and Raymond approaches it and asks it to return to its own realm. Gozer asks if Raymond is a god, and when Raymond responds in the negative, Gozer tries to kills the Ghostbusters. The Ghostbusters turn on their proton weapons and fire at Gozer, but she easily jumps away. They fire at her again and she disappears. Gozer's voice calls out that Volguus Zildrohar the Traveler has come and they must choose their form of the destructor. Raymond imagines the image of the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man and a giant Stay Puft Marshmallow Man appears and starts to destroy the city. The Ghostbusters fire their weapons at it and catches it on fire, but continues to walk towards them. Egon suggests to cross the streams and fire them at the dimensional portal and after they do, the portal disappears and the Stay Puft Marshamallow Man explodes, covering everyone in marshmallow. Peter initially thinks Dana is dead, but discovers the dog form was only a shell and they free her and Louis. The Ghostbusters, Dana and Louis walk out of the building and are cheered by the crowd.
