Thanks to @exfianceemusic for the awesome Ghostbuster-y music.

I’m a child of the 80s. Reading Rainbow. Duck Tales. Gummi Bears. An American Tail. Light Brite. Super Mario Bros. Lincoln Logs. Ghostbusters. And Hi-C EctoCooler.

While the lead up to the 2016 Ghostbusters release is cautiously anticipated by nostalgic fans and marred by sexism-driven critques, I’m psyched. See I have a five-year-old and a three-year-old now. Two girls. They’re a little young to join me in the theatre this weekend, but when they’re ready, I’ll show it to them, and they’ll have their own ghostbusting heroines to look up to, like I looked up to Egon.

Likewise, I was geekily excited to hear that Hi-C was re-releasing the EctoCooler flavor. A friend of mine had a cardboard ghost trap on his desk that he put one of the new cans of EctoCooler in and I remembered the one-can thermoelectric fridge my dad used to have in his office. So I bought one and decided to mod it into a ghost trap. See the photos of the process below and follow me on Snapchat @kylejbritt where I’ll talk some more about the process over the next few days.
