Plot

A red humanoid dinosaur-like being named Spikorouleusdennummale escapes from his home dimension and is discovered aboard a ship by a group of men. When he meets the Ghostbusters, they nickname him Spike. He explains that Nurtog, a tyrannical T-Rex ghost, has conquered his homeland.

The team attempts to contain Nurtog using their proton streams, but the tyrant breaks free of the trap's pull and retreats back to Spike's homeworld. The Ghostbusters then discover they had only captured a mental projection of Nurtog, and that they must travel to Spike's dimension to defeat the real entity.
