== Censorship ==
*When Cartoon Network aired this film, two scenes were censored:
**The scene at the beginning showing Daffy selling cars was edited to remove Daffy offering cases of Billy Beer with each purchase.
**The sequence of Porky traveling with Sylvester to the haunted hotel (actually rearranged and redubbed clips from "Claws for Alarm") has all the noose gags cut. This scene was reinstated in 2002 when they began airing "Claws for Alarm" uncut.

==Notes== 
*Production Number: 255117
*MPAA Number: 29236
*The film's title and premise is a parody of the Ghostbusters film series, which also featured ghosts and supernatural themes.
*Real newspaper clippings were used to provide filler text on the newspaper zoom-in during the newly animated Daffy Dilly scene announcing the death of character J.P. Cubish. One of the clippings is taken from the February 9, 1987 issue of The Tampa Tribune, in which the AP reports the recovery of six young children from a cult known as The Finders. The Finders, at the time, was a subject of intense national interest. Two other articles are used for that scene: one telling the story of a hospital patient asking the general public for help with a blood disorder known as "Acquired Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura" (aTTP), and the other a clipping of a story describing ongoing embezzlement investigations into then Los Angeles Mayor Tom Bradley. 
*Daffy's scream as he got hit by the wrecking ball is both Wile E. Coyote's and Sylvester's screams taken from both "To Beep or Not to Beep" and "Tugboat Granny", respectively.
*Music is reused from: 
**"Porky's Preview" (Opening logo)
**"Ducking the Devil"
**"Jumpin' Jupiter"
**"Early to Bet"
**"Punch Trunk"
**"It's Hummer Time"
**"What's Up Doc?"
**"Muzzle Tough"
**"Operation: Rabbit"
**"Long-Haired Hare"
**"The Windblown Hare"
*Audio is reused from: 
**"The Stupor Salesman"
**"The Prize Pest"
**"Rabbit Seasoning"
*In the ending credits, The title of the cartoon Punch Trunk was mistakenly called “Punch Truck”.
