A slight modification of the already original ecto 1 modified 1959 Cadillac hearse made for the ghostbusters 2 movie in 1989 .

In an attempt to refresh the new ghostbusters 2 films look , decision to modify the ecto 1 was made by adding new accesories on top of the hearse and two electronic bilboards on each side to advertise ghostbusting ads .

The overall new ectomobile was nice enough to not alter the already popular look of the iconic car .

Note that the car also comes equipped with a proton particle thrower and giant ghost trap ( featured in the atari 2600 , nes , sega games systems . ) never used in any of the two previous ghostbusters films , but was featured in the real ghostbusters animated series pilot .
The ecto 1a is the name of the ectomobile in ghostbusters 2 .

The ecto 1a is the same car as the ecto 1 but slightly modified .

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.
