Based on the original scripts (including deleted scenes) by Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis, The GHOSTBUSTERS novelization was written by Richard Mueller, while GHOSTBUSTERS II was written by Ed Naha. Here's the rundown via Amazon:

When Dr. Peter Venkman and his Columbia University colleagues are kicked out of their prestigious academic posts, they start a private practice as professional ghost-catchers. Although things do not start auspiciously for the three parascientists, their television advertisements finally pay off when beautiful Dana Barrett contracts them. It seems her apartment has become the entryway for ghastly ghosts and goofy ghouls hellbent on terrorizing New York City. Soon they’re not just going to her rescue, but trying to rid the whole city of the slimy creatures.

After waging a war on slime that cost New York City millions, the Ghostbusters find themselves out of business until an ancient tyrant, preparing a return to the Earthly domain through his portrait at the Manhattan Museum of Modern Art, sets his sights on Dana Barrett’s baby as the new home for his wicked soul!

The 448-page omniubs is available for pre-order via Amazon in paperback and e-book. Titan Books will unleash it on April 21, 2020. Pre-order HERE.
