Gozer is the ancient god of destruction at the centre of Ghostbusters, first appearing in the 1984 film as the towering entity summoned to bring about the end of the world. The character, with its androgynous form and terrifying calm, became one of the franchise's most recognisable villains and returned in later Ghostbusters stories. Online, screams linked to Gozer's arrivals are reused far beyond the films, especially in horror edits, gaming clips and reaction memes, where the name alone signals an unstoppable, otherworldly threat.
