Meet Vigo The Carpathian

Vigo, the not-so-friendly ghost, has been giving us chills since his first appearance in the Ghostbusters 2 film. His eyes, burning with the rage of a thousand suns, his creepy half-smile, and that life-size figure! It's all enough to give anyone a case of the heebie-jeebies.

But fun fact, did you know Vigo was not actually a ghost? Shocking, right? He was a tyrant, magician, and a genius who lived during the 16th century. His magical powers were the reason he could trap his soul in the painting and come back to life.

The Unbelievable Story Behind The Ghostbusters 2 Painting

Now, why was our dear friend Vigo trapped in a painting? Well, let's rewind to the 16th century. Vigo ruled Moldavia with an iron fist. He was so evil that his subjects named him "Vigo the Cruel", "Vigo the Torturer", "Vigo the Unholy" and, my personal favorite, "Vigo the Butch".

But, alas, all bad things must come to an end. And so did Vigo's reign. But not before Vigo had a light bulb moment. Using dark magic, he transferred his soul into a painting, ensuring his comeback in another era. Cue dramatic music!

Fast forward to the Ghostbusters 2 movie. Our favorite crew of parapsychologists stumble upon this eerie painting and the rest, as they say, is history.
