“Everybody can relax, I found the car!”-Dr. Ray Stantz in Ghostbusters.
We’re so excited to announce the Ecto-1 replica car from the Ghostbusters movies is coming to Causeacon! Donnie Coleman is a passionate cosplayer and built his Ecto-1 with his family and community and is driving that bad boy to Causeacon in April.
Originally Ecto-1 was a 1959 Miller-Meteor Cadillac hearse, our fan made replica is a 1962 Cadillac hearse. Even though she isn’t an exact match, Ecto-1C has been a passion project for owner Donnie Coleman, his family, and community. Without the help we have received this Ecto would have never been created. A HUGE thank you to all who have helped.

Today the Ecto-1C is touring around West Virginia bringing joy and smiles to kids and kids at heart. Our goal is to bring some nostalgia to older fans and a sense of wonder in younger fans.
