The Stay Puft Marshmallow Man stomping through New York is one of the most memorable scenes in movie history. Go behind the scenes of Ghostbusters, and see how the gooiest movie got on the road to its rampage.

The movie wouldn’t be what it is if Gozer’s final form weren’t a puffy sugary sailor man, but the journey from concept to the sticky final product was a long one. Almost everyone involved had doubts about audiences buying into a killer marshmallow monster.

We’ll take you through this scene, including the story, the effects, stunts, and pyrotechnics (figurative and literal) that brought the Stay Puft Marshmallow man from Dan Aykroyd’s script to Ivan Reitman’s final cut.
