Tufts Medical Center's Floating Hospital for Children

When you’re sick and stuck in Boston hospital, who you gonna call?

Why, the cast of “Ghostbusters,” the upcoming all-female version directed by Paul Feig for Sony, of course.

As a matter of fact however, the patients at Tufts Medical Center’s Floating Hospital for Children didn’t even have to call. They received a surprise visit Saturday from some of the film’s stars including Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones – all in full costume – who hung out and posed for photos with the kids. The hospital shared some of the shots on its Facebook and Twitter pages.

“Floating Hospital for Children at Tufts Medical Center patients got a huge surprise today when Ghostbusters stars Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones came to visit!” read the Facebook post. “Thank you for taking the time out of filming today to put a big smile on our patients faces! ‪#‎WhoYouGonnaCall‬ ‪#‎Ghostbusters‬.”

One of the young patients wasn’t well enough to have visitors when the “Ghostbusters” gang arrived. The cast posed outside the room and got the young patient in the shot.

“This sweet patient couldn’t have visitors in the room when the Ghostbusters were there but wanted a photograph, so the ladies posed outside the room to get her in the shot. Very thoughtful, ladies!”
