The 2436 Ghosts of Heck House are a collection of ghosts created from a spell cast on a library of 2436 ghost stories in Heck House.[2]

History[]

Jonah Heck wanted to build the most haunted house in the world. He studied magic spells around the world and returned home to the United States of America to build Heck House. Heck then filled its library with books of ghost stories and cast the one spell he learned - a spell to make all those ghost stories come to life.[3] Over the next 50 years, no one could stay the night at Heck House and survive its legion of ghosts. In death, E. Henry Merriweather issued a $1 million challenge to the Ghostbusters - conquer Heck House without the use of Proton Packs and staying from dusk to dawn. The Ghostbusters accepted and reconfigured the house's wiring to turn the standing structure into one big Ghost Trap. The ghosts were weakened and further anchored to Heck House.[4][5]
