Gozer the Gozerian

Ghostbusters | Character

Something Missing?

Gozer is a character from Ghostbusters films. It is an ancient, ultra-powerful, malignant entity from another dimension who was summoned to New York City to destroy the world. Gozer was originally worshiped as a god by the Hittites, Mesopotamians, and the Sumerians around 6000 BC. Gozer is genderless (though it first appears as a female in the movie). It was worshiped by the powerful Cult of Gozer. Gozer has two trusted minions – themselves worshiped as demi-gods – that are harbingers of destruction and primary agents for its arrival: Vinz Clortho, The Keymaster and Zuul, The Gatekeeper. Gozer has visited our world three times, in 1984 and 1991 (assuming the form of the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man), and most recently in 2021.  The Ghostbusters were able to thwart its efforts all three times.
