The website does show the ghost trap but shows them as sold out. I think it's pretty obvious that there is a market for GB stuff especially traps. I'm guessing more will be available soon. I did see on a Facebook group that apparently Amazon still has them listed

When you follow the Ghostbusters link on the home page of the Spirit Halloween website, it lists all the products EXCEPT the ghost trap. And likewise, when you search for "Ghostbusters" or "Ghost trap," it does not list the ghost trap. So unless maybe you have a direct link, they've removed the ghost trap from the website.

They better get more in stock soon...

No matter what I do, my doors always get off the gears.

Spirit refunded me $15.

That sucks. I was fortunate that my 2 traps work flawlessly. Watch, I probably jinxed myself. Haha

Only small problem with mine is the doors have different shades of yellow (one looks more like glow green). A little paint and she'll be ready to roll.

But when I check the Spirit Halloween website, the ghost traps aren't even LISTED. Don't tell me they've SOLD OUT already; it's only September 2!
I know I'm late to this reply probably, but my experience was that when I went on Aug 31 to the Spring Hill, FL store, they only had 1 trap and I bought it.

Instagram isn't an ideal option for sharing photos on forums. Imgur or twitter are more flexible.

Funnily enough, I went into ANOTHER local Spirit Halloween store today, and they had a couple ghost traps in stock, so I snagged one (for 20% off). I guess it's kind of a crap-shoot with these things...

my trap arrived and like others one of the doors had skipped a tooth on the gears and wouldn't close. I returned it and then got told when I called to order another one that this is a common issue and there is a fix for it. You're supposed to call spirit and choose the option for animatronics support and they will guide you through the fix.

The doors come off rather easy. If it is not on correctly, you can pop the door off and put it back on.

Just an FYI, if you're trying to get any of the Spirit Halloween Gear, Message them on Facebook and they'll let you know if a local store is getting stock in soon or when an out of stock item online is available, they're very friendly and helpful.

Nope. Complete bull**** that PKE's are showing up in stores, but those of us already pre-ordered online have to wait. Of course the 3 nearest Spirit stores around me don't have ANY PKE meters or traps. *shakes fist*

I just got my PKE meter today and I ordered pretty late in the pre-order game. You guys should be seeing yours relatively soon :)

Everyone hit up customer service, it seems there was an issue with the P.K.E. orders and they will all have to be reordered.
Unfortunately we can confirm that your order was not received by the warehouse due to a feed issue they experienced. It was not fed into the warehouse system. The order will essentially have to be closed off for you to re-order. You were only charged for the one item which shipped, but not for the pre-order item.
