| 9 | * ColourCodedForYourConvenience: While they all have the classical tan jumpsuits from the movies, they also have alternate jumpsuits of different colors. |
| 10 | * CompositeCharacter: They are a composite of their original movie selves and their ''Real Ghostbusters'' incarnation. Their membership eventually expands to characters from the IDW comics, ''Ghostbusters: The Video Game'', ''Extreme Ghostbusters'' and even the 2016 reboot. |
| 11 | * DestructiveSaviour: The Ghostbusters are very effective at capturing ghosts, but their primary weapons, the proton packs, are terribly inaccurate and burn through whatever they hit when they miss (which is often). That's not even getting into the larger threats, which tend to end up leveling city blocks before the Ghostbusters stop them. Gozer blew up the top few floors of a high rise building as a consequence of stopping her. |
| 12 | * HunterOfMonsters: Well, hunters of ectoplasmic entities, which often happen to be monstrous. |
| 13 | * ParanormalInvestigation: Although they're more like a decontamination crew than detectives or investigators. |
| 14 | * ReimaginingTheArtifact: Like the TMNT, the Ghostbusters are now set on Star City thanks to the devastation of New York City during the Manhattaning in 1987. |
| 15 | * WhoYouGonnaCall: They're the {{Trope Namer}}s, as it's their {{Catchphrase}} when advertising their business of investigating paranormal activities and capturing/neutralizing ectoplasmic entities. |
| 16 | * WorkingClassHero: Most of its members come from working class backgrounds. |

| 22 | |
| 23 | "The Mouth" of the team who functions as something of a leader due to being the most forward and direct with clients, critics, the press, etc. Always ready with a sarcastic quip when things turn dire. |
| 24 | ---- |
| 25 | * AdaptationalAttractiveness: Downplayed, Peter is slightly more attractive than his counterpart in the film. Key word being "slightly". |
| 26 | * BlondeBrunetteRedhead: The brunet to Egon's blonde and Ray's redhead. |
| 27 | * BrilliantButLazy: He is a fairly smart guy. If only he cared enough to do anything with his smarts. He has [=PhD=]'s in both psychology and parapsychology, but uses mostly the psychology one to help him get together with girls. |
| 28 | * TheCasanova: He mostly uses his smarts and people skills to hook up with girls, he even helped Ray a bit with that. |
| 29 | * CircusBrat: Grew up as a carnival barker, although he eventually saved enough money to go and study at Midwestern University, leaving his family behind. |
| 30 | * ConMan: Thanks to his carnival past and skills at manipulation, he managed to swindle universities and bluff his way into obtaining a parapsychology degree. |
| 31 | * DeadpanSnarker: Full stream. |
| 32 | * TheFace: Peter is the group's ambassador and generally does the talking. |
| 33 | * GloryHound: The primary reason he's the face of Ghostbusters Inc. is that he wants his face in the newspapers, getting positive press whenever possible. |
| 34 | * GoodIsNotNice: Has the heart of a hero but definitely not the manners. |
| 35 | * GuileHero: Can trick and bluff his way out of any pinch. |
| 36 | * LastNameBasis: He's usually referred to by his last name. |
| 37 | * TheLeader: By default, due to being the group's front man who's always the first to step forward. |
| 38 | * LovableCoward: For all his bravado, he's not exactly a brave guy; he'll step up to the plate if necessary, but very reluctantly, and will happily allow someone else to go first. |
| 39 | * ObfuscatingStupidity: He is a very intelligent man, but he comes off more like a Casanova Wannabe. He obviously doesn't have any real interest in parapsychology or psychology. Despite all this, the very fact that he was able to become a scientist in those fields speaks volumes of what he is capable of when he works at it. |
| 40 | * OfficialCouple: He and Dana Barrett are on-and-off fiancees. |
| 41 | * ParentalSubstitute: Treats Oscar Barrett almost like his actual son. |
| 42 | * PhonyPhonyPsychic: He even pretended to be a psychic, and while Egon had his suspicions, Peter distracted him by introducing him to Ray. |
| 43 | * PunchClockHero: He's OnlyInItForTheMoney and treats what he does as a the paying job it is, not some selfless mission or higher calling for the good of mankind. |

| 49 | |
| 50 | "The Heart" of the group, he's a scientist and inventor like Egon but also easily the most fun-loving, most enthusiastic member of the team who likes nothing more than uncovering and battling new ghosts. |
| 51 | ---- |
| 52 | * AdaptationDyeJob: Has auburn hair like in the animated series to differentiate himself from his actor Dan Akroyd's natural hair. |

| 54 | * BestFriend: His best friend is Egon Spengler. |

| 59 | * TheEngineer: While Egon is typically the group's strategist during missions, Ray is the mechanic and practical inventor. |
| 60 | * GeniusDitz: For the guy who was behind the creation of the proton packs and the Ecto-1, he sure doesn't have a lot in the common sense department. |
| 61 | * TheHeart: He's considered this by the rest of the Ghostbusting team. |
| 62 | * MustHaveNicotine: Ray has a mild nicotine addiction. |
| 63 | * OfficialCouple: Currently engaged to Jenny Moran. |

| 65 | * {{Omniglot}}: He's fluent in eight ancient languages. |
| 66 | * SiblingYinYang: He turned out very different from his siblings. His older brother Carl Stantz is a conservative, retired military, married with two sons and an alcoholic who hates terrorists, homosexuals and parapsychology, while his younger sister Jean Stantz is a journalist, is divorced, a Liberal, has a daughter, and is a feminist with two lovers of both genders. The only thing Carl and Jean have in common is that they hate Peter Venkman. All three siblings rarely see each other. |

| 84 | * NiceGuy: Although he's a mad scientist, whose methods are questionable, Spengler has a soft side only seen by his friends and Janine. |
| 85 | * NoodleIncident: Egon tried to drill a hole in his head at some point. All we know is Peter stopped him before he could do it. |
| 86 | * {{Omniglot}}: He's fluent in six languages and decent in five others. |
| 87 | * OneDegreeOfSeparation: His former nanny, a foreign exchange student who shared his interest in mythology, was Julia Kapatelis. |
