Biography

Egon Spengler

For unknown reasons, he had part of a Slinky but he straightened it. On October 29, 1969, Egon graduated from Columbia University with a degree in Psychology in the faculty of Psychobiology. On May 10, 1972, Egon graduated from New York University with a degree in Parapsychology. On June 26, 1980, Egon graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology with a degree of philosophy in Nuclear Engineering. In the early 1980s, Egon Spengler fathered a daughter who was born in 1982 and named Callie but he was not a part of her life. However, he still kept track of Callie. Egon was very interested in paranormal phenomenon, and worked with Ray Stantz and Peter Venkman at Columbia University's Paranormal Studies Laboratory in Weaver Hall. He and Ray studied paranormal literature in their spare time and were interested in theories of reincarnation. Egon once tried to drill a hole in his own head, utilizing a process known as trepanation. Egon believed it "would have worked" if Peter hadn't stopped him. At some point, Egon developed a sweet tooth for snack food like Crunch and Twinkies. Egon developed the P.K.E. Meter to detect paranormal entities and phenomenom with. Egon and Ray were usually the first to interview case subjects, even people Peter called "schizos" no matter how far-fetched their stories were.

Overview

Personality and attributes

Egon has a very dry sense of humor, once jokingly stating that most women would be "more interested in his epididymis," rather than his intellect. He is not immune to anger, as under duress he has been shown to swear twice during the Gozer incident. He even lunged at Walter Peck in anger when Peck ordered them arrested for the disruption regarding the shutdown of the containment grid, despite the fact Peck himself was entirely responsible, and ignored Egon's repeated explanation of why it would be so dangerous to do so.
