Arbutus Place Rest Home is a home for senior citizens on Long Island.
History[]
About a week after the Ghostbusters trapped the Hungry Manitou, the ghost of Old Lady Myrtle manifested in the Arbutus Place Rest Home. The manager called in the Ghostbusters when she displayed hostility. At 11:44 am, Egon Spengler and Winston Zeddemore made contact with Myrtle in the western wing. While Egon and Winston struggled to keep Dinah the Cat confined, Ray Stantz and Peter Venkman trapped Myrtle (which dissipated Dinah).
