Another day, another "Ghostbusters 3" rumor ? and this one comes from gossip mag The National Enquirer of all places!
The scandalmongers are reporting that after star Bill Murray was sent the latest screenplay of the project, he mailed fellow ghostbusters Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis a nasty present: a box with the script totally shredded inside like confetti. The note attached read, "No one wants to pay money to see fat, old men chasing ghosts!" The Enquirer reports that Dan and Harold were so upset by his response, that they plan on making the movie without him. Dread Central has more on the report.
Sound like a lot of nonsense to you too? Let us know below, and keep on reading for more of the week's Horror Bites.

"Dead Snow" director Tommy Wirkola makes his Hollywood debut with the upcoming "Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters" ? but Fangoria is reporting that Paramount will be shuffling the release date from March 2 to sometime next fall. Jeremy Renner and Gemma Arterton star as the iconic children in the woods all grown up. The whole gingerbread house debacle inspired them to become expert witch hunters. Here's hoping we'll get our dark fairy tale fix sooner rather than later.
