Summary

From a distributor, Agent With Style: "Ray Stantz's attempts to modify the Ghostbusters' trans-dimensional portal grants him a view of Gondor at the time of the Battle of the Pelennor Field, and bring him to the attention of Gandalf, who can sense the portal. When the team goes through to visit Gondor and are stranded there, they find a great peril hanging over Frodo that needs the help of the Ghostbusters to resolve -- but which puts Ray into the same peril as Frodo. Can Gandalf help the paranormal eliminators to 'bust' the evil energy? Will they ever be able to return to New York?"
