Secondary Canon HistoryEdit
Ghostbusters: Sanctum of SlimeEdit
The Parkview Psychiatric Hospital was built in 1954, sponsored by the New York City government. It was built over the ancient burial tomb of Dumazu and a shard of the Relic of Nilhe was discovered by two construction workers. The shard was turned over to the American Museum of Natural History. During the 1989 New Year's holiday, Janosz Poha was committed and assigned to share a room with a current resident named Ismael McEnthol.
Years later, Janosz was released. He soon returned to Parkview and gave a stolen shard to Ismael. Ismael used its power to take over Parkview and its occupants. Ismael then turned over the shard to the junior team of the Ghostbusters when they arrived at Parkview, from following strong ectoplasmic readings from the Sedgewick Hotel. They later returned to Parkview with the reassembled Relic and fought a paranormal army, Ismael, and Dumazu.
IDW ComicsEdit
Janosz was committed to Parkview after the Vigo incident where he refused to paint at first. A few years later, Janosz began to paint again but his dosage of Thorazine was doubled. In late December, Janosz was visited by Idulnas and forced to serve him. They relocated to Janosz' cell and painting a summoning spell on wall in Gozerian Alphabet.

TriviaEdit
- In the 11/27/88 draft of Ghostbusters II, the guys were committed to Bellevue Hospital instead of Parkview. [1]
- Jack claims to be acting on the Mayor's behalf, but a Mayor's Office does not have the authority to commit an individual. In addition, three of the four Ghostbusters are doctors of psychology, making it unlikely the hospital would admit them without question.
- On page six of Ghostbusters Issue #4, Parkview is on Walter Peck's speed dial.
