One of the very earliest "ghostbusting" stories is found in a little known part of the Bible and includes Daniel (of the "lion's den" fame), the babylonian king and the god Bel. It uses a now familiar way to distinguish between the paranormal and normal. ghostsghoulsandgod.co.uk/2020/04/dani...

Image of the inside of an ancient babylonian temple. Daniel is standing with the king of Babylon, and is wearing a Ghostbusters-style backpack, holding the proton blaster vertically with a flame at its end to light the darkened temple. At the other end of the temple is the statue of the god Bel, and on the floor are footprints in the dusty ashes.
